What are the reasons for inaccurate indication of the flip plates in a magnetic flap level gauge?

Thread Content

  A magnetic flap level gauge uses a magnetic float to drive dual-color magnetic flaps in order to indicate the liquid level; it can be used for detecting the liquid level in various devices such as towers, tanks, vats, spherical vessels, and boilers. It enables high-level sealing and leak prevention, as well as the measurement of liquid levels under conditions of high pressure, high temperature, and corrosive environments. It offers reliability and safety; it overcomes the shortcomings of glass plate (tube) level gauges, such as unclear readings and susceptibility to breakage. It is not affected by sudden changes in temperature, and no combination of multiple level gauges is required. There are no blind spots in the entire measurement process; the display is clear, readings are easy to interpret, and the measurement range is wide. After long-term use, if there are deposits of medium inside the body of a magnetic flap level gauge, it will affect the proper functioning of the float; therefore, it is necessary to clean it regularly. Before cleaning, first close the gas-liquid phase valves to remove any remaining substances from within the cylinder. After cleaning, assemble it as before; turn the float upside down. Replace the gasket to prevent leakage due to aging, and tighten the screws. Precautions for the installation and use of magnetic flap level gauges: 1. The magnetic flap level gauge must be installed vertically, with a maximum deviation of ≤3°. 2. There should be no ferromagnetic materials within 200 mm around the gauge body. 3. If the length of this product exceeds 4 meters, intermediate supports must be added during installation. 4. After installation, adjust the magnets by moving them slowly along the surface of the flaps to ensure that the red side of all flaps faces the observer. 5. Before putting the magnetic flap level gauge into operation, the upper valve should be opened first, followed by slowly opening the lower valve, so that the medium can flow into the tank gradually, allowing the flaps to turn one by one to provide indication. And adjust the zero liquid level using the adjustment screw. 6. During use, if individual flaps fail to function due to sudden changes in liquid level or other reasons, it is possible to correct this by adjusting the magnets. 7. Before performing a pressure test on the container, please close the valve connecting it to the level gauge.
