Seeking advice on selecting a level gauge

2023-05-16View Original

Thread Content

For horizontal tanks with an internal negative pressure of -0.1 Mpa, the installation location is limited to the top only. The material inside the tank may solidify over time; therefore, it’s important to choose the right type of level gauge. Currently, radar level gauges are being used, and they show a liquid level of around 30 when the tank is empty

It is recommended to first consult the technical department to address the crystallization issue in the process; otherwise, it will be difficult to choose a suitable level gauge.

This inner coil is used for heating, and it is placed there for crystallization

Under your conditions, the radar is basically usable; the solidification issue must be resolved by heating it manually, and it has nothing to do with the level gauge itself

Radar level gauge, but it is necessary to prevent material from crystallizing on the surface of the radar; Or double-flange differential pressure, with proper heat tracing to prevent crystallization-induced blockages

The radar level gauge is being used now; an empty tank shows a level of 30

There is only one opening at the top of the horizontal tank; there is no installation port below the double-flange level gauge
