Advantages of Mass Technology’s Mass Measurement System

• Postpone API 653 internal inspection with Mass Technology tightness certification
• Accuracy unaffected by fluid temperature changes
• Non-intrusive, non-hazardous, and intrinsically safe
• Minimal tank preparation
• Zero tank stabilization time
• Results are immediate, conclusive, and quantitative
• Requires no capital investment by tank owner
• Not affected by water at tank bottom or product stratification
• Not influenced by roof or tank bottom structure
• Tests any viscous fluid at routine operating conditions and capacity
• Evaluated by an EPA-recognized, independent third-party laboratory

Avoid entry of aboveground storage tanks (ASTs).  Postpone API 653 internal inspections.  Mass measurement is accurate under all common ambient conditions. Tightness results for aboveground storage tanks are unaffected by temperature, water, or product stratification and no time is spent on tank stabilization.  We require only minimal tank preparation.  No person need enter the tank.  The process is non-intrusive, non-hazardous, and is intrinsically safe (no heat, no toxic or flammable fumes, no chemical reactions) using Nitrogen as the introduced agent. Test is performed under routine operating conditions and capacity, no need to take the subject tank out of operation. Our accurate results are immediate, conclusive and quantitative and backed by independent third-party laboratory evaluations.
