Let’s analyze the faults of the floating ball
Thread Content
It’s strange – there’s a problem with one of the float balls in our company. Everyone, please help analyze what could be the cause. When the liquid level is high, the float ball doesn’t move; it suddenly rises to around 80% of its maximum position. Similarly, when the liquid level drops, the float ball also doesn’t move and drops suddenly. We took it apart for inspection; it moved freely when handled by hand, and no faults were found. But the same problem persists once it’s reinstalled and put into use. It’s really strange; our medium is an oil slurry after all
It might be due to a blocked flow; check if the channel is obstructed
It seems to be a problem with delaying control; the control is a bit delayed
Analysis: It is flexible when removed, but jumping occurs after installation; this may be due to improper installation causing jamming. Furthermore, since the medium is an oil slurry with high viscosity, it may adhere and cause stagnation.
Those with high viscosity or impurities are prone to getting stuck
On the one hand, it is necessary to check whether the movement of the float ball is hindered (this is less likely), and at the same time verify if there are any issues with the signal transmission circuit.
The viscosity is too high; the material has gotten stuck, I guess
