Consultation on automatic water cut-off device issues
Thread Content
Hello, everyone who enjoys the sea! Operating requirements: The density of the liquid stored in the tank is 1.1, and it is necessary to remove water from the liquid. From what I’ve found, this seems to be difficult to achieve. I was wondering if it would be possible to carry out separation before the liquid enters the tank – by adding a buffer tank before it, equipped with an overflow pipeline at the top and a device similar to a water separator for oil tanks at the bottom, so as to enable automatic water separation. I’m not sure if it’s possible; I hope fellow sailors can give some advice. If any relevant suppliers are capable of doing this, please leave your contact information. Thank you all!
As long as this liquid is water-repellent, it will work; it’s best to have an observation hole.
It’s possible. I’ve heard that in some systems, an automatic dehydration valve is installed at the bottom of the feed buffer tank’s dehydration pack. However, to prevent oil loss and waste, some water cannot be removed entirely. I haven’t asked which suppliers use this approach, so I’m not entirely sure
The density of the medium is greater than that of water, so conventional water cutters cannot be used for dewatering.
For technical exchanges, please don’t just post emojis!
The density of the medium is greater than that of water; when a buffer tank is used, the medium exits from the bottom while water exits from the top, thereby ensuring that there is a certain liquid level in the buffer tank, which allows it to function as a large-scale water separator.
The density of the medium is greater than that of water, so conventional water-cutting packs or devices are ineffective
