What to do if the gauge error for naphtha is large

Solution: 1. Perform the operation multiple times and calculate the average; 2. Learn *measuring skills from experienced masters.

Apply oil gauge grease to the oil gauge to facilitate viewing and reduce errors.

How can the error be so large? Check whether there are any issues with the process; ensure that all valves are closed, as otherwise dynamic tank gauging becomes meaningless. If the person performing the task is not experienced enough, find someone who is more skilled to do it. How can a static tank give inaccurate measurements?

Naphtha level measurement: 1. Ensure that the gauge used is of good quality, with clear markings and no cracks. 2. Confirm that the storage tank is at rest; apply the oil level indicator based on the instrument readings (if no instruments are available, estimate the liquid level roughly). 3. When lowering the gauge, do so smoothly; raise it quickly and take accurate readings. 3. Strengthen training by following the correct techniques*. All of the above are static tank gauging methods; if dynamic tank gauging is used, there are safety hazards, and the measured data is also inaccurate. In short, more practice is needed for measuring, in order to improve the accuracy of such measurements.

The error is large; what is it compared to? What is the benchmark?

No need to practice? You can give it a try; remember, use the oil dipstick to check! The values obtained can vary significantly between inexperienced beginners and skilled veterans. Although these instruments are advanced, they still cannot completely replace human judgment; do not underestimate these basic operations
