Advantages of magnetic flap level gauges for measuring tank liquid levels

2020-07-02 View Original

Thread Content

The magnetic flap level gauge is one of the commonly used level gauges in the field of tank level measurement today. So why is it so popular? This is due to its seven advantages: 1. The magnetic flap level gauge can be installed either on the side or at the top; in either case, it can be combined with a remote transmission device, allowing the gauge to display the level both locally and enable remote monitoring. When combined in this way, it is referred to as a remote-type magnetic flap level gauge. 2. The magnetic flap level gauge is also known as a magnetic level gauge, magnetic rod level gauge, or magnetic float level gauge. It operates on the principle of magnetic coupling, and it overcomes the various shortcomings of glass tube level gauges, such as their inability to function under high temperatures and pressures and their tendency to break easily. 3. The magnetic flap level gauge uses a magnetic float as the sensing element; it measures the level or interface of the liquid being measured through the magnetic coupling between this float and the magnet in the display column. 4. The magnetic flap level gauge indicator is installed on the outside or above the tank, and is used to indicate and control the liquid level inside the tank. It comes in a sealed version; a drain valve can be added as needed, and flanges are available for customizing the desired liquid level. The indicator consists of magnetic color chips – as the magnetic float inside the tube rises with the liquid level, these chips flip over, thereby indicating the liquid level. A magnetic switch or a remote transmitter can also be installed on the body tube to output a switch signal or an analog signal. Suitable for high-temperature, high-pressure, and corrosion-resistant environments; it offers local display and remote control capabilities. The main tube of the magnetic flap level gauge is made of seamless steel pipe; the connection parts are welded by hole-pulling, and there are no scratches inside. The magnetic flap level gauge can be installed either sideways or from above; the lower end of the gauge body is sealed. 5. The locally displayed magnetic flap level gauge features intuitive and prominent display, a wide viewing angle, a compact and rational design, safety and reliability, no issues with leakage, low maintenance requirements and low repair costs. Its indicating function does not require additional power supply; thus, even in the event of a power failure, level monitoring is not affected. It is an ideal instrument for level detection. 6. The magnetic flap level gauge operates on the principle of a communicating tube, ensuring that the liquid level in the container being measured is equal to that in the measuring tube. As the float in the measuring tube changes in volume in line with the liquid level, the magnet inside the float interacts with the magnets in the color columns on the display panel, causing these columns to flip. White indicates no liquid present, while red indicates the presence of liquid, thereby allowing for the direct display of the liquid level. 7. The magnetic flap level gauge can be equipped with an electric transmitter that outputs a standard 4–20mA signal, for use with recording instruments or for networking with industrial control computers.
