The chemical industry demands non contact level measurement solution
Aug 15, 2023| The chemical industry demands non contact level measurement solution due to the aggressive nature of the measured materials.
The non contact measurement is required for this industry since it includes aggressive acids and highly corrosive materials, such as hydrochloric acid (HCl), Sulphuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ), Caustic Soda (NaOH), different types of Solvents and alcohols.
Non contact ultrasonic technology has been successfully applied on some of the chemical storage tanks, where the speed of sound in the measured material is similar to the speed of sound in the air and where the temperature, pressure, vapors and steams are less demanding, hence do not affect the speed of sound.
Another consideration should be given to the chemical compatibility of the sensor’s material. Polypropylene (PP) can cope with some of the chemical materials, however in some cases PVDF housing should be used.
