Preparation tank for solvents

Level measurement and point level detection in the solvent preparation tank

Level measurement in the preparation tank for solvents

Process data

Measuring task:
Level and pressure measurement, point level detection
Measuring point:
Tank
Measuring range up to:
1.4 m
Medium:
Solvents
Process temperature:
-10 … +150 °C
Process pressure:
-1 … +10 bar
Special challenges:
Condensate, media a with low dielectric constant

Application

A hot caustic solution is required for fast cleaning. It is heated in the storage tank and then flushed into the production equipment. The tank is wrapped in a steam heating jacket that serves to control the temperature inside the tank. The level measuring system is used to control filling and discharge. Level detection prevents the tank from overfilling or running empty.

Your benefit

Reliable
Certified materials according to FDA and EC 1935/2004 regulations
Cost effective
Maintenance-free operation
User friendly
Simple installation
