Level gauge selection
Thread Content
The material contains 30% to 50% zinc powder, and there is stirring inside the tank; as a result, scaling and blockages can occur easily. Due to the properties of this material, it is advisable to avoid using flushing water. I would like to ask everyone which type of level gauge would be the best choice?
Thank you. Due to stirring, the fluctuations are quite large; will using the blowing method have any impact?
Thank you. Due to mixing, there are significant fluctuations. Will using radar have any impact? Can ultrasonic waves be used through a guide tube? If the tank is small, it should have some effect, right?
What are the tank height, diameter, pressure, and temperature? Is the stirring done in just one layer at the bottom, or are there multiple layers at different heights? Are there waveguides, and what are the minimum and maximum liquid levels?
The tank has a volume of around 6 cubic meters; the nitrogen seal maintains a slight positive pressure, the temperature is below 100 degrees, and it uses an impeller-type stirrer with a low rotation speed. Would an external float work?
A flanged differential pressure level gauge with a ceramic diaphragm will suffice; brands such as Yokogawa, Krolon, and E+H are all suitable. The DN80 version should not experience blockages. Ultrasonic and radar sensors are not appropriate for measuring levels in liquids that are in constant motion, as they respond slowly and do not provide accurate readings under such conditions
Radar level gauges are recommended; it is important to choose the right manufacturer
