Hospital Cooling Tower Sump Radar Level Transmitter

When a California hospital needed reliable level measurement of their cooling towers, they turned to Flowline. The regional hospital provides Level-1 trauma, primary, secondary and tertiary services to hundreds of people a week, and reliable climate control is critical to their patients. The facility had experienced several cooling tower outages caused by float switch scaling and corrosion. The facility engineer wanted to replace the float switches with a reliable non-contact level measurement solution that’s unaffected by agitation, scaling, corrosion or the Amazon rains within the towers. For these reasons, Flowline suggested our LR80 radar sensor that’s reliable, easy to install and configure, unaffected by agitation and constructed entirely of PVDF. Mounted above each sump, the radar sensors provide reliable level data to the SCADA, which monitors the sumps and actuates their refill. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
