Level Switch Measurement
|
|
|
|
Level Switch applications are found in all types of production, including the food industry, for monitoring one or more high/low levels on fluids or bulk material.
This is applicable on all kinds of vessels e.g.:
- storage tanks
- hot product bunkers
- stirrer vessels cyclones
- sluices
- feeder chutes etc.
Measuring Principle
The level switch system is based on the physical law of the attenuation of gamma radiation as it passes through matter. In the case, there is product in between the source and the corresponding detector, the detected radiation decreases by a considerable extend. This effect corresponds to the product's presence or absence and therewith it is signalised whether the surveyed level is reached or not.
The measurement is independent of:
- High temperature
- High pressure or vacuum
- Volatile & biohazard material
- Corrosive material
- Agitators, baffles, coils etc.
- Build up on vessel walls
- Physical and chemical properties of the product and the process
Advantages
- Contactless measurement
- External mounting without modification of the existing vessel
- Lowest source activity
- Decay compensation
- Independent from chemical composition and most physical properties
- Suitable for aggressive products, high temperatures and high pressure
