What is a level transmitter (level transmitter, level transmitter)?
Level transmitter (level transmitter, level transmitter) is a device that shows the level continuously. Level transmitter (level transmitter, level transmitter) can be used to measure the level of any liquid or solid substance at any time. The difference between the level switch and the level transmitter (level transmitter, level transmitter) is that the level switch switches only when it reaches the specified range.
Applications of transmitter tubes (surface transmitters, transmitter tubes)
Measuring the level of tanks
Estimating the amount of usable liquids
Measuring the amount of fuel in diesel cars
Warning when the amount of fuel is less or more than the specified limit
Remote control by PLC or other equipment and control systems
Telemetry systems input
Pump and well control
The amount of surface material in the dredging process
Types of transmitter tubes (level transmitters, transmitter tubes)
Level transmitters (level transmitters, level transmitters) have different types, each of which has its own performance and is suitable for different applications. At first, we will list the types of level transmitters (level transmitters, level transmitters) and In the following, we will provide a brief explanation for each:
Capacitive transmitter level (capacitive level transmitter, capacitive transmitter level)
Hydrostatic transmitter level (hydrostatic level transmitter, hydrostatic transmitter level)
Magnetic transmitter level (magnetic level transmitter, magnetic transmitter level)
Radar transmitter level (radar level transmitter, radar transmitter level)
Ultrasonic transmitter level (ultrasonic surface transmitter, ultrasonic transmitter level)
Capacitive transmitter level (capacitive level transmitter, capacitive transmitter level):
As its name suggests, the capacitive transmitter level (capacitive level transmitter, capacitive level transmitter) works based on the capacitor built into it. A capacitor stores electrical energy by using two electrodes that are insulated from each other. A non-conductive material is placed between these two electrodes.
Capacitive level transmitter (capacitive level transmitter, capacitive level transmitter) uses a liquid or any material stored in a tank as a non-conductive material. When the amount of matter is high, the amount of stored energy will be more and when the amount of matter is low, the amount of this stored energy will be less. Therefore, by using the amount of energy stored in the tank, it is possible to calculate the level of the material inside the tank. Of course, at the beginning of the work, it is necessary to test the level of the capacitive transmitter (capacitive level transmitter, level of the capacitive transmitter) in the full and empty state of the tank.
Hydrostatic transmitter level (hydrostatic level transmitter, hydrostatic transmitter level)
Hydrostatic transmitter level (hydrostatic level transmitter, hydrostatic transmitter level) or pressure transmitter level can determine its value based on the pressure of the contents inside the tank. Of course, in order to estimate the amount of material level correctly, the pressure of the material inside the tank must always remain constant. Therefore, when the material inside the tank may contain impurities, the hydrostatic transmitter tube (hydrostatic level transmitter, hydrostatic transmitter tube) is not very useful.
Magnetic transmitter level (magnetic level transmitter, magnetic transmitter level)
This model of transmitter level uses a ball or floating float that has magnetic power. In this model, the ball or float is usually located inside a column or pipe, which prevents the float from moving during turbulent flow. In the magnetic transmitter tube (magnetic level transmitter, magnetic transmitter tube) a ball floats on the fluid and goes up or down when the amount of fluid changes. However, it should be noted that the magnetic level transmitter (magnetic level transmitter, magnetic level transmitter) is only useful when the column, float, and reservoir are all made of non-magnetic materials.
Radar transmitter level (radar level transmitter, radar transmitter level)
This type of level transmitter has an advanced technology that is used to continuously measure the amount of liquid level inside the tanks. Radar level transmitter (radar level transmitter, radar level transmitter) uses radar signal transmission technology like military radar devices. Usually, this equipment is installed in the upper part or near the highest level of the tank. The working method of radar transmitter level (radar level transmitter, radar transmitter level) is that the equipment sends a radar signal into the tank and based on the return time of this signal, it can calculate the amount of fluid level inside the tank.
Ultrasonic transmitter level (ultrasonic surface transmitter, ultrasonic transmitter level)
The operation of this system is similar to radar transmitter level (radar level transmitter, radar transmitter level). In the ultrasonic transmitter level (ultrasonic level transmitter, ultrasonic level transmitter) an ultrasonic transducer is installed in the upper part of the tank, which emits ultrasonic pulses. When this pulse hits the fluid level, it returns and is sent to the transducer again, and based on the time of this return, the sensor can determine the amount of fluid level in the tank.
Since the amount of sound speed in the tank can be affected by the gases or foams inside the tank, it is very important to know what kind of gas or vapors or Foams may be present or produced in the tank.
