Challenges In Chemical Level Measurement
Chemical storage tanks and process vessels often contain aggressive, volatile or hazardous media. These conditions make level measurement more difficult and require the right technology.
Corrosive liquids may damage sensors
Vapor, foam and condensation affect accuracy
High temperature and pressure environments
Turbulence and agitation in process vessels
Safety requirements for hazardous chemicals
Recommended Solutions
| Application | Medium Type | Main Challenges | Recommended Solution |
|---|---|---|---|
| Storage Tank | Acid, alkali, solvent, chemical liquid | Corrosion, vapor | Radar level meter / Guided wave radar |
| Process Vessel | Reactors, mixing tanks, process liquids | Agitation, foam, temperature | Radar level meter / Guided wave radar |
| Small Tank | Chemical dosing, additives | Small size, installation space | Compact radar / Ultrasonic level sensor |
| High Temp Tank | Hot chemical liquid, high temp process | High temperature, pressure | High temperature radar level meter |
| Corrosive Tank | Strong acid, alkali, salt solution | Strong corrosion | PTFE antenna radar / Corrosion resistant probe |
