Fault in electric float level gauge
Thread Content
Our company deals with pressure and viscosity reduction devices; the liquid level in the viscosity reduction tower does not respond accurately, and it is necessary to adjust it manually each time in order to determine the liquid level. What is causing this? There is no issue with cards
How is it inaccurate? Does it not correspond to the actual rise and fall or fluctuations in liquid level? Is the packing tight? Is the weight appropriate?
Thank you, moderator. The liquid level does not match the actual value; the packing is fine and there’s no problem with the hammer either. What could be the cause?
I’ve encountered this problem before, but in most cases it returns to normal after moving around a bit outside. It’s probably because there’s a slight jam at the connection point between the float and the tube wall (the inner part).
Media with high viscosity affect the float’s movement in response to changes in liquid level; it is better to use a radar level gauge instead
It is also possible that the hinge connecting the float rod is not flexible.
It is caused by high viscosity; only by replacing the gauge will it work, and if the pressure is not high, a radar level gauge should be used.
