A Key Step To Improve Production Efficiency: How To Choose A Level Meter For A Thermal Power Plant?

Thermal power plants need to consider many factors when choosing a level meter. The commonly used level meters on the market include ultrasonic level meters, guided wave radar level meters and non-contact radar level meters. Different types of level meters are suitable for different working conditions and media, so the following points should be carefully considered when choosing:

 

 

1. Ultrasonic level meter:

Advantages: Suitable for level measurement in open or atmospheric pressure containers, such as pools, main oil tanks, etc.

Limitations: Not suitable for use in conditions with a large amount of water vapor, foam or dust, nor for measurement of liquid levels under very high pressure.

2. Guided wave radar level meter:

Advantages: Suitable for low dielectric constant media and working conditions with large liquid fluctuations, such as condensers, deaerators, high-pressure heaters, etc.

Applicable occasions: Especially suitable for small storage tanks, such as small engine oil tanks.

3. Non-contact radar level meter:

Advantages: Suitable for almost all liquid level measurements, with stability and cost-effectiveness.

Applicable working conditions: Suitable for acid and alkali storage tanks, fuel oil tanks, desalted water tanks and other occasions.

In the selection process of the level gauge of the thermal power plant, the characteristics of different types of level gauges can be comprehensively considered according to the specific working conditions and needs, and even the use of multiple level gauges can be combined to achieve the purpose of cost-effectiveness and effect. As a national pillar industry, thermal power plants need to improve production efficiency not only by selecting appropriate level gauges, but also by carefully selecting other automation equipment to promote industry development and national economic progress.
