Pump Station Diesel Tank Guided Wave Level Measurement

Pump Station Diesel Tank Guided Wave Level Sensor

Pump Station Diesel Tank Guided Wave Level Transmitter

When a New Mexico water plant needed reliable level measurement of their pump station diesel fuel tank, they turned to Flowline. Located at the base of a large urban valley, the pump station transfers drinking water to a hillside storage tank that supply the community below. A diesel generator provides backup power and is automatically run every week to ensure readiness. There the operator said that previous float level switches would stick due to coating and required periodic maintenance. Hence, they wanted to replace it with a maintenance free level transmitter, and they preferred a metal enclosure. For this reason, Flowline suggested our LG10 guided wave sensor that’s unaffected by coating media, and packaged in a durable aluminum enclosure. The guided wave sensor provides reliable level data to the SCADA which monitors the tank and alarms for fuel replenishment. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
