Heavy Equipment Wash Tank Ultrasonic Level Measurement

When an Ohio truck and heavy equipment rental company needed reliable level measurement of their wash system tanks, they turned to Flowline. The firm rents dozers, excavators, loaders and backhoes to construction, oil & gas and mining contractors across the state. Upon return, the equipment is washed, inspected and serviced. Cleaning starts with a two man power wash and each washer is supplied by a recirculating hot water storage tank. There the maintenance manager said that a prior ultrasonic level sensor failed when the seasonal temperature was cold, but the tanks were hot, and thus filled with condensation. He said I need reliable measurement year round. For this reason, Flowline suggested our patented UG06 ultrasonic sensor that’s unaffected by condensation. The ultrasonic sensors provide reliable level data to the PLC, which monitors the tanks, and controls their refill. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
