Our R & D department develops solutions so that they can fulfil our customers’ requirements for both flow and level applications. We present to you an application about level indicators with magnetic strips, transmitter and switches.
Through one of our customers, we have taken part in a project with several LTL106 model level indicators with magnetic strips, with body in AISI 316L and flanged connection, for installation in fire-tube boilers in thermal power plants.
This is an equipment of simple construction, based on the principle of communicating vessels, resistant to extreme conditions of temperature and pressure with a good chemical resistance. Besides the customer needed to incorporate a TR3420 transmitter and bi-stable reed switches with thermal protection in aluminium for a temperature of up to 200ºC.
A float submersed in a chamber communicated with the tank whose liquid level needs to be measured floats on liquid surface and moves together with it, as level increases or decreases.
The float is designed for the specific working liquid density and shows the tank level by means of bi-colour magnetic strips mounted externally and isolated of the level gauge chamber.
If you want to know more about how the magnetic strips of a by-pass level gauge work this article will be of interest for you.
The TR3420 transmitter allows the remote transmission of 4-20 mA signal proportional to the liquid level, being able to configure the transmitter locally by means of USB connection with Winsmeter TR software available for downloading at the Downloads section of our website.
The SPDT bi-stable reed switch with aluminium housing allows detection of a single discrete liquid level height.
