Chemical Neutralization Tank Radar Level Measurement

When a Central California chemical manufacturer needed reliable level measurement of their waste neutralization tank, they turned to Flowline. The firm produces cleaning and sanitization chemicals for process water, cooling water and wastewater treatment applications. From which, they collect, treat and recycle their own wastewater. The I&C engineer explained that their neutralization tanks periodically foamed, and when they did, their past ultrasonic level sensors would become intermittent, causing alarms and shutdowns. He said, “I need a reliable, non-contact and corrosion resistant level sensor that’s not impacted by foam or vapor.” For these reasons, Flowline suggested our 80-GHz radar sensors that are unaffected by such media variables and constructed entirely of PVDF. The radar sensors provide reliable level data to the PLC, which monitors the neutralization tanks and controls the treatment process. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
