What Are The Selection And Installation Tips For Radar Level Gauges in Buffer Tanks?

Aug 05, 2024|

Handling the oil-gas mixture in the separation buffer tank is a very important process. In this process, we need to consider the selection of radar level gauges for buffer tanks. Due to the special characteristics of this type of liquid medium, special measures are required to ensure the accuracy and stability of the measurement, while avoiding interference from external factors. Therefore, we must carefully select the radar level meter for the buffer tank according to these requirements to ensure that we can effectively complete our work when handling the oil-gas mixture in the separation buffer tank.

 

Selection and installation of radar level gauge for buffer tank

 

1. When selecting the radar level gauge, it must be confirmed whether it can effectively measure the oil-gas mixture and is not affected by the characteristics of the medium. It is recommended to select suitable radar technologies, such as high-frequency radar or FM radar, which can accurately measure without contacting the liquid and avoid measurement errors caused by adhesion or slurry stirring.

2. When installing the radar level gauge, pay special attention to the location of the oil inlet. Due to the large fluctuation of the liquid level of the oil-gas mixture, the liquid dynamics around the oil inlet will affect the radar level meter of the buffer tank. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a location far from the inlet for installation, or consider installing the radar level meter in the bypass pipe to ensure the stability and accuracy of the measurement.

On some separation buffer tanks, since it is impossible to install the radar level meter at the manhole, the bypass pipe installation method is selected. This installation method has proved its effectiveness and greatly reduced the occurrence of equipment failures and unstable signals.

The choice of installation location is also crucial. The buffer tank radar level meter should be parallel to the tank wall and perpendicular to the liquid medium to ensure the measurement effect. At the same time, factors that may cause interference, such as obstacles or other equipment in the tank, should be avoided.

The process and process of each transfer station are different. Therefore, when selecting and installing the buffer tank radar level meter, it is necessary to fully understand its own process conditions and environmental requirements. Only in this way can we ensure that the appropriate equipment is selected and installed correctly in the right place to improve the efficiency and stability of the production process.
