On the design of storage tank level gauges

2026-01-07View Original

Thread Content

Can a plastic level gauge be used for normal-pressure storage tanks of common flammable liquids? Furthermore, according to the \"Specifications for the Selection and Design of Automated Instruments\" (HG/T 20507-2014), clause 7.2.2(9) states that glass plate level gauges shall not be used for local level indication in cases involving highly toxic media. Additionally, the \"Design Specifications for Tank Areas in Petrochemical Storage and Transportation Systems\" (SH 3007-2014) specify in clause 6.3.2 that pressure storage tanks should be equipped with both a set of remote monitoring instruments and a set of local indication instruments, and glass plate level gauges shall not be used for the local indication purpose. What type of level gauge is generally chosen?
