How to calibrate a level gauge

2017-04-09View Original

Thread Content

Below, proper manual operation is required, along with typical calibration methods. For example, if the liquid level as measured on-site is 40%, the display shows 70%, and an additional 20% compensation is applied internally – how can one calibrate it so that the liquid level matches that measured on-site? Detailed manual operation steps!

Wow, I really can’t understand it……

Please explain clearly: some magnetic flip switches come with remote transmission functions, and in your case, whose scale on the magnetic flip switch is not matching the corresponding remote transmission system?

The reference point of the remote level gauge and the on-site magnetic flap level gauge must be the same.

1. The reference points must be the same; that is, the upper and lower flanges need to be identical in order to make a comparison. 2. Verify that the density of the material fed in is the same as that used during the calibration of the float. When calibrating float switches, water is generally used as the calibration medium. During calibration, the range is adjusted accordingly; for example, if the density of the medium at the time of operation is 0.6 and the gauge has a range of 1 meter, then the height of the liquid level that corresponds to the full scale when using water should be 1*0.6 = 0.6 meters. In other words, when the water level reaches 0.6 meters, the gauge will show 100%. For the other calibration points at 25%, 50%, and 100%, these values are multiplied by 0.6 meters to obtain the corresponding readings. 3. Judging from the issues you’ve mentioned, if the reference point is the same, it shouldn’t be the medium under normal operating conditions at this time; could it be water that was introduced during the water-based operation? Using the example given above, since water was introduced and the liquid level on the glass plate was 40%, the float indicated 40%/0.6 = 67%

You need to make it clear what level gauge you want to calibrate

The sentence is not logically clear; it seems the person themselves doesn’t understand what to ask.
