The rod of the guided wave radar level gauge is too long; can the excess part be cut off?
It depends on which brand it is and what type of rod it is. I only know that Rosemont’s soft cables work, as well as some hard rods; I can’t help you with anything else
Siemens, right? Let me tell you a solution: for our guided-wave radar level gauge, we add a short tube about 200 meters long at the pipe outlet, and it was tested successfully the day before yesterday.
Adding short tubes requires time for material preparation and transportation, right? It would be convenient if they could be cut.
Cannot be cut. Here we measure the liquid level of sulfuric acid in the storage tank; it involves two PP flanges plus a section of pipe. The flange and short pipe were fabricated in just 20 minutes, which is very convenient.
Why didn’t you say earlier? I just cut off 5 CM – will it have any impact? In our company, we just need to adjust the instrument program
We have encountered similar situations as well; we added pipes to the equipment to ensure that the level gauge is at the appropriate height
Sure, the cut must be straight; adjust the instrument parameters as well. There are two ways to resolve this situation: either shorten the waveguide rod, or add a short circuit. Adding a short circuit is the most convenient
It cannot be shortened; only longer tubes can be added, which is both convenient and accurate
I have cut E+H cables before, and there were no problems. The flexible cables I cut were quite long; one of them was cut in half, but no issues were observed
