Dynamic SVG

About Spherical Tank

The Spherical Tank is a high-fidelity Dynamic SVG component designed for industrial SCADA and HMI environments. Representing a Hortonsphere-style pressurized storage vessel, this control utilizes advanced radial gradients and metallic finishes to provide a realistic 3D appearance on 2D process screens. It is engineered specifically for monitoring high-pressure fluids and liquefied gases with precision and visual clarity.

Key Features

• Dynamic Level Visualization: Real-time monitoring of inventory via the TankLevel property, featuring a clipped liquid area that respects the spherical geometry.
• Industrial Realism: High-quality metallic shading with a multi-stop radial gradient and a dedicated overlay layer for light reflections.
• Structural Versatility: Includes detailed support columns and a soft drop shadow to provide depth and grounding within the process graphic.
• Seamless Integration: Fully compatible with WinCC Unified and WinCC V8, allowing for direct drag-and-drop implementation.

Customization

The control offers 6 adjustable properties to match your specific process requirements. Users can define the BasicColor for the tank shell and SupportColor for the structural legs. The LiquidColor property allows for immediate identification of the stored medium, while ShowSupports and ShowShadow provide the flexibility to toggle structural elements for simplified or detailed views. All properties, including the TankLevel, are fully bindable to PLC tags.

Use Cases

This component is ideal for oil and gas refineries, chemical processing plants, and cryogenic storage facilities where spherical tanks are used to store butane, ammonia, or LPG. It is perfect for high-level overview dashboards and detailed equipment faceplates.

Compatibility

Designed for modern industrial interfaces, this control works natively with WinCC Unified and WinCC V8. It supports all standard HMI color types and numerical data formats.
