High Temperature Radar Type Level Gauge Assists The Continuous Casting Process Of Steel Mills

Jul 02, 2024|

During the continuous casting process of steel mills, especially in the vortex well, liquid level measurement in steel mills is very important. In order to ensure production efficiency and casting quality, many steel mills have adopted high temperature radar level gauges. This equipment can not only work stably in a high temperature environment, but also effectively deal with liquid level fluctuations and other potential interference factors.

When choosing a radar type level gauge, several key factors need to be considered.

 

High temperature radar level measurement in steel mills

 

1. The condensation problem of water vapor. Due to the high temperature in the vortex well, a large amount of water vapor is easily generated. If it is not controlled, water mist will form on the radar antenna, affecting the measurement accuracy. Therefore, it is recommended to add a nitrogen purge device at the installation site of the high temperature radar level gauge to reduce the impact of water mist.

2. Selection of the range of the level gauge. Unlike the storage tank, the liquid level in the vortex well may be stirred or fluctuated, so the range of the high temperature radar level gauge should be slightly higher than the actual liquid level to ensure stable measurement under various working conditions.

3. Debugging the radar level gauge is also one of the key steps. During the use of the vortex well, the well wall may accumulate iron oxide and other substances, resulting in false alarm echoes. Correct debugging of the High temperature radar level gauge can help eliminate these interference factors and ensure the accuracy and reliability of the measurement results.

Selecting a suitable radar type level gauge for the converter continuous casting link of the steel plant and taking effective debugging and control measures are of great significance to ensure smooth production and improve product quality.
