This manual contains information on the installation, setup, and operation of the DanLoad 6000.
The DanLoad 6000 is a versatile microcomputer based batch delivery controller and liquid flow
computer. This type of instrument is commonly referred to as a Preset in the tanker vehicle loading
industry. The DanLoad 6000 is easy to setup on-site for utilization in virtually any application that
requires precise flow measurement and control of liquid batch deliveries. Batch delivery operations
are easily conducted in a logical manner. A batch delivery can be setup and started with several
intuitive commands. The instrument provides a graphic display of the progress of the batch delivery.
Notes
This manual covers the DanLoad 6000 software version 5.74 released in July, 2001. The
DanLoad 6000 software version number is displayed during the startup sequence after power is
applied to the instrument and in the diagnostics menu. This software version is compatible
with both the original CPU board and the new version 2 CPU (CPU v2) board.
How to use the Manual
The information contained in this manual is intended for use by operators, shift supervisors,
instrument technicians, process engineers, and terminal / plant managers. To the extent that is
practical, each section of the manual is designed as a stand alone document. The last section,
Section 6, contains a reference for the function of all program codes (parameters) that define the
operation of the DanLoad 6000. Each program code is identified by a three-digit number between
001 and 991. Program codes are shown in the following forms in this text.
# 001 Passcode Unique program code.
# 052 / 055 / 058 / 061 Valve to be controlled Sequence of four similar three-digit
program codes. Each three-digit
number applies to one flow meter.
Program code sequence is in flow
meter sequence in numerical order (1
to 4).

DanLoad 6000 (v6.00) __________________________________________________________
1 - 4 ____________________________________________________________ Introduction
Overview
The DanLoad 6000 can be operated in an independent stand-alone mode with batch delivery
operations monitored and controlled from the operator control panel located on front of the DanLoad
6000. The DanLoad 6000 can also function as a slave unit in a terminal automation system network.
The information contained in this manual covers local operation of the DanLoad 6000 in the Stand-
alone Mode. The DanLoad 6000 accepts process input signals from and provides process control
signals to the common instruments and devices used in liquid batch delivery systems. These
instruments / devices include: liquid flow meters (turbine and positive displacement type), solenoid
controlled digital flow control valves, additive injectors, security devices for verifying electrical
ground connections and compartment overfills, electric motor driven pumps, and motor operated
block valves. The DanLoad 6000 can be easily setup (configured) to deliver single component
liquids or to blend up to four liquid components in precise ratios, with or without additive injection.
The various possible delivery and blending functions of the DanLoad 6000 are controlled by operator
selectable recipes (predefined delivery control procedures). Additive injection is controlled by
manual selection, recipe selection, or automatic selection from a terminal automation system. These
features allow one DanLoad 6000 and the associated liquid delivery equipment to deliver many
different combinations of liquid products, based on requirements of the client or receiver of the
delivered product.
One common application for a DanLoad 6000 is as an on-site controller for delivering refined
hydrocarbon liquid products from loading terminal storage tanks to mobile tanks, such as tanker
trucks, rail tank cars, and tank barges. Some other applications include liquid component blending
and / or additive injection in refinery or chemical plant processes. In addition, liquid components
can be blended with or without additive injection into flowing pipelines or into storage tanks. A
typical load rack installation with a DanLoad 6000 and associated equipment is shown in Figure 1 -
1.

1.1 Functional Characteristics
The functional characteristics and capabilities of the DanLoad 6000 are presented in this section.
These functional characteristics and capabilities are closely related to the hardware configuration of
the instrument. Section 1.2 - Hardware Configuration, contains general information on the
hardware configuration of the DanLoad 6000. The DanLoad 6000 is delivered from the factory with
several basic electronic modules and other optional modules to accommodate process input / output
signals. The required process input / output signal boards are determined by the loading system
configuration and should be specified when the DanLoad 6000 is purchased. The mix of process
input / output signal boards and communications modules is field reconfigurable. The hardware
configuration determines the input / output process signal handling capacity and the data logging /
data communications capability of the instrument. The flow measurement and logical functions
listed below are available in all hardware configurations of the DanLoad 6000. However, each
unique installation requires a specific complement of process input / output signal boards, based on
the actual devices that are monitored and controlled in the system.
The DanLoad 6000 can monitor and control operation of up to four flow meters, up to four flow
control valves, delivery of up to four products, and up to six additive injectors and additive meters
simultaneously. The minimum configuration consists of one flow meter measuring one component
(liquid product). Two high resolution pulse per unit volume outputs are provided for use by external
equipment, such as meter prover counters. Product deliveries and component blending deliveries
are selected by up to thirty configurable recipes (batch delivery / blending control procedures) and
automatic or manual selection of additive injection. Any additive(s) can be associated with any
recipe(s). The actual implementation of the various possible process operations are covered in detail
in other sections of this manual.
# Batch Delivery
The DanLoad 6000 can automatically measure and control quantity-based preset batch delivery of
one product or a blend of two to four liquid components. During blending operations, one to four
flow meter streams are controlled independently from the other flow meter streams. Any
combination of pulse output type flow meters of different sizes and flow handling capacities can be
monitored and controlled by one DanLoad 6000. Each flow meter stream can have unique
characteristics for the liquid component. For accounting and tracking purposes a batch delivery or
group of consecutive batch deliveries can be combined to form one transaction.
In addition, the DanLoad 6000 can control batch loading of up to four independent loading arms,
if only one loading arm is in use at any one time.
