Food Truck Sanitization Tank Guided Wave Radar Level Measurement

When an Oregon sugar distributor needed reliable level measurement of their truck cleaning station, they turned to Flowline. The firm delivers granular bulk sugar to food manufacturers. At the end of each day, their empty tanker trucks pull into a wash station for container cleaning. Spray heads are lowered inside, and the containers are washed with chemicals and then rinsed with hot water and steam. There a feed tank is separated into two compartments, one side for diluted chemical and the other for hot water. The tanks were manually operated, but this resulted in several overflows. The maintenance technician needed reliable level measurement, indication and alarming of both compartments. Additionally he was concerned with the elevated temperatures in this application. For this reason, Flowline suggested our LG10 guided wave sensor that’s ideal for heated applications coupled with our LI55 level controller that indicates and alarms for the operator. The guided wave sensors provide reliable level data to the controllers. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
