Tank Monitoring System with touchscreen HMI running on Raspberry Pi
The system is an embedded industrial controller for tank monitoring. It combines a touchscreen user interface, radar level meter, data history. The application runs directly on Raspberry Pi with Embedded Linux. Qt and C++ provide the HMI and application logic, while Modbus RTU is used to communicate with the radar level meter.
The system integrates radar level meters to continuously monitor tank levels in real time. Measurement data is processed and presented through a simple interface, giving operators a clear view of tank conditions without adding unnecessary complexity.
Read level, volume, temperature of products inside the tank.
The system focuses on reliable measurement, simple visualization and easy monitoring of tank conditions
Record data product inside tank for later use.
SYSTEM DESIGN
The controller sits between the radar level meter and the operator interface.
Reads level, volume, and temperature values from an industrial radar level meter through Modbus RTU over RS485.
Displays real-time tank conditions on a touchscreen interface.
Provides a touchscreen interface designed around the operator's workflow.
Stores data monitoring for traceability.
ENGINEERING NOTE
The system is designed with simplicity in mind. Clear interfaces, straightforward control logic and focused responsibilities make the application easier to operate, maintain and extend in the field.
