Help: Can a high-frequency radar level gauge penetrate 20 meters of oil?
Thread Content
I would like to ask the experts on this forum. It is said that high-frequency radar level gauges have strong penetration capabilities and can be used in situations with steam and foam on the oil surface. So, can a high-frequency radar level gauge penetrate oil at depths of more than 20 meters in order to measure the distance to the bottom of the storage tank? Most oil depots in coastal areas suffer from significant settlement, and if possible, this provides yet another method for monitoring the uneven settlement of storage tanks online.
High-frequency radar level gauges can penetrate 20 meters of oil. High-frequency radar level gauges use high-frequency pulse radar waves to measure the level of substances in storage tanks, intermediate buffer tanks, or process vessels. These level gauges feature a large measurement range, high accuracy, and good stability; they also possess strong resistance to interference and high measurement precision, which enables their widespread use in industrial production.
Not quite sure, I haven’t used it that way;P
It depends on the dielectric constant of the oil; an instrument is needed to conduct a actual test
