Magnetic flap level gauge

2017-01-29View Original

Thread Content

The remote display of the magnetic flap level gauge shows “999” while the actual liquid level is zero. The normal voltage reading is 18VDC; currently, the voltage is 14VDC. How can this be brought back to normal? Open the vent valve of the magnetic flap level gauge, add water so that the magnetic float is at the same level as the zero point of the magnetic flap level gauge; at this point, the measured voltage is 18VDC and the liquid level is 0%. The reason for the above problem is the absence of water in the drain valve, which causes the magnetic float and the zero point of the level gauge to not be on the same horizontal line.

No water in the drain valve: Cause: The absence of water or insufficient water level in the drain valve prevents the magnetic float from accurately reflecting the liquid level. Precautions: Regularly inspect the drain valve and level gauge to ensure that there is always water inside the drain valve and that it is in proper working condition. Signal transmission issue: Cause: It may be due to interference, aging, or poor connections in the signal lines, resulting in incorrect signal transmission. Solution: Check the signal cables to ensure they are firmly connected and not damaged or worn out. Replace the signal cable if necessary. Preventive measures: Regularly inspect and maintain the signal lines to ensure they are in good working condition. Internal fault of the level gauge: Cause: It may be due to a malfunction in the sensors, circuit board, or other components inside the level gauge. Solution: If it is confirmed to be an internal fault of the level gauge, it is necessary to contact the manufacturer or a professional repair technician for repair or replacement. Preventive measures: Regularly maintain and inspect the level gauge, and replace any aged or damaged components in a timely manner. Environmental factors: Cause: Environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and vibration can also affect the accuracy and stability of level gauges. Preventive measures: Select a level gauge suitable for the working environment and ensure it is installed in an appropriate location to avoid being affected by adverse environmental factors. Improper operation and maintenance: Reason: Improper operation and maintenance can lead to damage or malfunction of the level gauge. Preventive measures: Train operators to ensure they understand the correct methods of operation and maintenance. At the same time, establish and adhere to relevant operating procedures and maintenance plans.

Isn’t the transmitter of a magnetic flap level gauge a current transmitter? Choose a voltage transmitter?
