For two-phase media, water is added and the mixture is stirred while allowing sedimentation to occur, followed by repeated cleaning. What kind of level gauge would be suitable? It would be best if it could display both the solid-liquid separation level during sedimentation and the liquid level when the two phases are mixed after stirring. The pH is around 10, the temperature is 80°C, and the pressure is at atmospheric level

The purpose of measuring the boundary level is to enable phase control, while the purpose of measuring the liquid level (the surface of the liquid) is to enable feeding control, right? 3. pH value is not very useful for measurement; it’s better to specify what type of material it is, along with its density, viscosity, and whether phase mixing may occur

With this stirrer going up and down, how can one determine the correct liquid level?

The second point you mentioned is exactly what I wanted to ask

Guided wave radar is used to measure the liquid level, while the sediment at the bottom is monitored using external sensing methods (such as nuclear level gauges on reactors, wall-mounted sensing instruments, etc.)

Hehe. If you’re looking for a watch, you should know the purpose of choosing and using a watch – why exactly. :Lol, or maybe someone else asked you to find it?

I majored in arts and crafts. Someone asked me about this, and I’m also confused

Oh~~~ My third question is on the 2nd floor; let’s see if you can answer it. If you can, I’ll give you an idea for your reference. . .

One type of gauge cannot meet your requirements, and using a stirrer to measure liquid level is really tricky; if the stirring speed is too high, the liquid surface forms vortices – so how can you use that point as a reference? Intermittently, you can only check the liquid level when it stops, but if there is a linkage related to that liquid level, stirring it up can be very dangerous. Another option is to use a level switch to determine the position of the solids after sedimentation, but the issue of mixing still remains. The principle behind level switches is buoyancy and density; once mixing occurs, it becomes impossible to measure these values.
