How to determine if a tower’s level gauge is malfunctioning

How to determine if a tower’s level gauge is malfunctioning? Have you encountered it? Please, fellow sailors, share your own experience with these operations.
There’s a viewfinder; just take a look and you’ll know. If not, install a level gauge on site, or tap it.
Compare on-site with indoor remote transmission! Cut off the liquid at the on-site level gauge and check whether the display is accurate!
1. On-site remote transmission comparison. 2. If the level gauge fails, it may sometimes cause the pumping pump to run dry due to the mistaken assumption that there is still liquid present. 3. Due to the liquid level, the material balance of the tower is disrupted, resulting in unstable operation. Fluctuations in temperature and pressure – at such times, it is also necessary to consider whether the level gauge is malfunctioning and showing an incorrect level. 4. If conditions permit, drain the liquid using an on-site level gauge.
On-site vs. Remote Comparison； After emptying, restart the system and observe whether the level rises slowly; manually adjust the liquid level in the control room to see if it tracks properly. If the level is full, it’s difficult to estimate what will happen. Empty the gas phase to check for any liquid present; if there is no liquid in the gas phase, close the valve at the liquid phase side and open the valve at the gas phase side to check again for any liquid
1. Turn on the drain valve of the on-site level gauge to see if the level rises. 2. Align the on-site readings with those in the control room. 3. Observe temperature changes
