🔍 Key Concepts

• Sounding methods for tanks that contain water vs fuel or oil • Difference between ullage (empty space) and innage (liquid depth)** • Why certain materials (metal vs rope/manila) are preferred in engineering spaces for permanent tanks**

💭 Think About

• Think about how engineers normally measure the level in a boiler reserve feed water tank: are they interested in the space above the liquid or the depth of the liquid itself? • Which of the listed tools would give an accurate, repeatable measurement in a hot machinery space environment? • Consider which tool is typically associated with fuel or cargo tanks, and which are more appropriate for clean water service.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice is specifically designed for ullage measurements and which for innage measurements. • Eliminate any options that would absorb water or be easily damaged/affected in a hot, wet engine room. • Confirm which options are calibrated measuring devices commonly used on engine-room tanks.
