Introduction of level gauge

We manufactures a large selection of liquid level gauges including armored style flat glass reflex & transparent gauges, large chamber level gauges, tubular glass level gauges, magnetic level gauges, gauge valves/cocks, and custom units. Let us help you choose a suitable liquid level gauge for your application.

What are level gauges?

Level gauges are measuring instruments that are used to detect the level of a process fluid or gas in a tank, vessel, or storage container. Level gauges are widely used in industrial process applications and are put into service to measure the fluid levels in drums, tanks, pressure vessels, or other similar applications. Process conditions such as operating temperature, pressure, process media, and center-center lengths will help determine the suitable type of level gauge required.

Three advantages of magnetic level gauge

Very high sensitivity and vision is also very wide. Field instructions output remote signal(4 ~ 20mA or HART).

A variety of liquids and high temperature, high pressure, corrosive and flammable and explosive liquid level of continuous measurement.

Magnetic flap level gauge can work at the conditons of high temperature and high pressure, and it also has a certain degree of corrosion resistance, thus greatly increasing the life of magnetic flap level gauge. At the same time, the body tube of the magnetic flap level gauge use seamless steel pipe, connecting pipe at the use of hole welding, no internal scratches.

When using magnetic level gauge, it has the feature of intuitive, eye-catching, wide viewing angle, compact and reasonable, and it is very safe and reliable. There is no blind spot in the measuring range.

General description of Level Gauge

General description Transparent Liquid Level Gauges use the T-form sight glasses, designed and built for a wide range of high temperature and high pressure applications.

Our transparent level gauge is used to make observation of the level of corrosion-proof and chromatic liquids. These types are utilized two pieces of tempered flat gauge glasses. in front and rear of which are enclosed with a gauge cover using stud bods. Where high temperature and corrosions are liable to occur, it can be furnished with a mica shield to prevent it from being corroded. There types are preferably used for reservoir tanks that require a relatively long visible length by constructing the supporter.

The transparent level gauge is assembled firmly with gasket, transparent glass, cushion gasket and gauge cover on the body by stud-bolts for all series.

Level gauges with glass tube

Level gauges with a glass tube are an inexpensive but valid option for checking the level of non-hazardous or non-reactive fluids in unpressurised tanks. An external metal protection of the glass tube is recommended.

The level is ascertained using a glass which has a smooth side and a wetted prismatic side. The level of the fluid inside the level gauge is shown by using the optical principles of refraction: the wetted part fully absorbs light and so the fluid appears to be black. The part in contact with the gas, on the other hand, fully reflects light and so the gas appears to be of a very light colour.

In this kind of level gauge, the fluid is held between two smooth glasses. The level can be identified as the fluid has a different level of transparency compared to gases and steam.

The transparent level gauge is particularly recommended for applications where the glass needs to be protected from corrosive fluids and high temperatures. A lamp can also be fitted behind the gauge to improve visibility in special operating conditions.

The Benefits of Automatic Tank Gauge

Utilizing an Automatic Tank Gage has perfectly replaced the manual dip-stick measuring as the preferred stock control answer for retail fuel sites with underground fuel storage tanks. An automatic tank gauge can be linked to probes and electric line leak detectors over various tanks to manage a whole fuel site’s inventory. The tank probes precisely measure the amount and temperature of any fuel or water in a tank and report it back to the automatic tank gauge.

Benefits of an Automatic Tank Gauge

Stock Control

Fuel site proprietors utilizing an automatic tank gauge can precisely assess the amount of fuel at present available for dispensing in each tank. By checking the inventory every day, a proprietor is able to comprehend their site’s business cycles, how much stock they require on hand, and when they have to schedule deliveries. Tight inventory control can help pick-up fluctuations in fuel amounts that may be caused by erroneous deliveries, malfunctioning equipment, or theft. In many states there is an administrative prerequisite that owners report their ten day inventory reconciliation.

By connecting all the automatic tank gauges on a fuel system to the Liquid Automation Systems, owners can see the inventory status and differences of every one of their sites at once. The cutting edge reporting features allows further insight into stock cycles and delivery scheduling over the whole system.

Leak Detection

The SABS orders that each fuelling site perform some strategy of leak detection and file a passing outcome once every month. An automatic tank gauge can perform this test by taking product level and temperature readings almost constantly for a set timeframe to figure out whether a changing product level might be because of a leak. Some automatic tank gauges perform Continuous Statistical Leak Detection (CSLD) by taking stock readings throughout the month at whatever when point there is no pumping action. The framework statistically examines the information to figure out whether the tank is tight or leaking.

When all the automatic tank gauges on a fuel system are connected to Liquid Automation Systems, a proprietor will consequently get an alert if any sites on the network detects a leak. The proprietor will likewise have leak test results readily available.

Magnetic Level Gauges & Accessories

Side-mounted magnetic level gauge can be used to measure level of various vessels in the shape of tower, kettle, groove and ball as well as boiler furnace. It can be used in complex conditions, such as high-sealing, leak prevention, high pressure, high temperature and corrosion. In the measurement process, no measurement blind area. It strikingly displays the level and has a wide measurement range.

Compared with traditional glass plate level gauge, it is safer, more reliable, more advanced and more practical. The most obvious characteristic is the complete isolation of liquid medium and indicator so it can be used safely, reliably and durably in any case. Level gauge meter equipping with liquid level alarm, control switch can control and alarm the highest and lowest level.

Principle animation of servo gauge

Servo gauges are designed to detect the difference in refractive indices of vapor and liquid and level detection and can be used in a number of process applications.

Servo gauges are commonly used for level detection within a specific vessel, and the primary principle is based on the difference in refractive indices of vapor and liquid.

Reflex gauges, also referred to as prismatic servo gauges, offer a well-defined image of water levels. This reduces risks of distortions or reading areas. Because of this, a servo gauge can be installed in a tilt-view or vertical position to produce even greater accuracy in readings along with a much better degree of reliability. As imagined, this is highly beneficial for many industries.

How to change a level glass of a Level gauge

Following steps to be taken to change the glass:

  1. Isolate the level gauge from process from HP and LV valve.
  2. Drain the level gauge process fluid from drain isolation valve.
  3. Insure no leakage occurred from HP and LP valves.
  4. Remove the all U-Clamp bolt and removed the glass and gasket and make smooth the surface of chamber and cover flange surface.
  5. Fix the sealing gasket after some grease applied on chamber window surface. By applying the grease it is easy net time to remove the gasket on next time.
  6. Fix the mica sheet in case of transparent glass.
  7. Fix the glass then fix cover flange and cushion gasket then fix the U-Clamp and bolt .
  8. Tighten the bolt in cross direction. Never tighten the bolt in one direction if tight the glass one direction then possibility to break the glass.
  9. Tighten the all U-clamp bolt equally.
