Tannery Wastewater Screen Tank Radar Level Measurement

When an Arkansas tannery needed reliable level measurement of their wastewater recovery tank, they turned to Flowline. The effluent has the consistency of cake batter that’s also corrosive, coating or foaming. Prior to treatment, the majority of chromium salts and organic solids are removed in their screen tank. There the I&E technician said that previous guided wave level sensors only lasted a year due to corrosion, ultrasonic sensors performed intermittently due to foam, and they needed reliable measurement. For these reasons, Flowline suggested our LR30 radar sensor that’s unaffected by corrosive or foaming media. The non-contact radar sensor provides reliable level data to the level indicator and PLC, which controls the wastewater screening and pump transfer process. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
