The density parameter issue of magnetic flap level gauges
Thread Content
The storage tank is equipped with a magnetic flap level gauge; when the medium inside the tank changes, its density also changes. In such cases, how can the magnetic flap level gauge determine the density of the medium? For example, there are media with a density of 800 and those with a density of 1300; should the parameters be provided based on the lowest density?
When you say the densities are different, do you mean it’s a single medium whose density changes due to variations in temperature or pressure, or are it two different mediums mixed together?
In simple terms, the density of the medium stored this month is 800, while next month another medium with a density of 1300 will be stored
If that’s the case, then there’s no need to worry. Provide the manufacturer with the lowest possible density; however, when storing high-density media, there will be a certain deviation in the liquid level, causing the displayed value to be higher than the actual one. You can ask the manufacturer to tell you the error – just provide them with the density, and they can help calculate it for you. And the error value should be constant; you can use it as well, by simply subtracting that error value
It must be in small quantities; otherwise, the density of the float is too high and it won’t be able to float in a medium with a lower density
It has been provided to the manufacturer at the lowest density
Learned*:lol:lol
Oh, is there an error here too? I don’t quite understand. When encountering a high density, doesn’t it still float on the surface?
You’re referring to the level transmitter, right? With a magnetic flap, it just needs to float; how can there be any deviation?
