Introduction of Liquid Level Gauges

Our liquid level gauges have the distinction of being the safest in the industry. An experienced plant operator is familiar with the direct relationship between the ease of resealing a leaky level gauge and enhanced safety in the handling of flammable, corrosive, or otherwise hazardous materials.

Our complete line of liquid level gauges feature our unique peripheral sealing scheme, which decouples sealing stresses from the process pressure. This enables our level gauges to meet higher temperature and pressure requirements than competing designs. As a result, our level gauges are more forgiving of imperfect screw torqueing by operators, and permit rapid resealing of leaks without gasket replacements.

For less demanding applications, tubular level gauges are versatile and economical alternatives.

Tank Gauge System Solution

Automatic tank gauge system are mainly used in underground oil tanks of petrol station, this system consists of console and KunLun magnetostrictive probe.

Magnetostrictive probe is installed in oil tanks, real time measuring oil liquid level, volume, water level and temperature inside tanks, at the same time transmit all the datas to console which install in office wall in real time.

TC Tank Level Gauge

The TC tank level gauge provides accurate level measurement of liquid contents within any form of containment tank.

Level gauge’s integral sensor converts hydrostatic head pressure, thereby allowing continuous readings.

The rugged 316 stainless steel construction proves ideal for use with oil, water and other compatible chemicals.

Tank Gauge for LPG LNG: Crude, Petroleum Products And Lng Applications

Tank gauge for LPG LNG plays an important role in the smooth functioning of the Petroleum Supply Chain. Some gaseous petroleum products like LNG and LPG (despite being part of the gas supply chain) are also measured by tank gauge for LPG LNG while in the liquid phase at the time of custody transfer or fiscal metering.

Industrial storage tanks usually contain large volumes of liquid product with significant fiscal value – the larger the tank larger is the financial impact of any incorrect operations. Tank gauge for LPG LNG is critically important for measuring liquids in large storage tanks. The ultimate objective is to accurately determine the value of volume and mass of the product in the tanks. The oil and gas industry generally uses static volumetric assessments of the tank content. However, mass measurements are also implemented in China.

Tank gauge for LPG LNG involves liquid level, temperature and pressure measurements. Since liquids undergo volume changes, depending on individual thermal expansion coefficient, there is an additional requirement for proper volume compensation during calculations of volumes at varying temperature conditions. Often, more significantly, for high vertical tanks and pressurised tanks, pressure measurement of the liquid head is important and included in calculating the pressure correction factor. This, in turn, provides an accurate assessment of the average observed density for converting volume to mass.

In addition, dimensional correction factors for variations in tank structural volume under changing operating parameters are applied to maximise liquid product quantity measurement accuracy. Tank gauge for LPG LNG scope varies and is dependent on 1) type of tank, 2) type of liquid, and 3) the purpose storage tank is used for.

Float and Tape Tank Gauge System

These instruments have been the liquid level measurement technique of the petroleum tank gauge system market for over 90 years due to their simplicity, reliability and cost.

Float and tape tank gauge system solution consists of a 2500 automatic tank gauge selected for the appropriate tank type. The instrument provides a measurement to +/- 4 mm accuracy and tank side display that is suitable for inventory management to API specifications. If control room integration and volumetric calculations are required, a tank gauge system transmitter is recommended with a 8500 STS for spot temperature measurement. The selection of the transmitter often depends on the required or existing field communications and protocols.

The automatic tank gauge combination is ATEX approved and is also able to provide optional contact outputs for triggering alarms or relays. If only an analog (4…20 mA) level output is required (without temperature) the 8200 COT can be used.

Working Principle of the Level Gauge

Level gauge consists of two parts: a magnetic indicator and a float. The magnetic indicator is composed of a red and white magnetic flipping column or a magnetic flipping card and a guard plate equipped with a small magnetic steel. When the floating ball equipped with magnetic steel moves up and down with the liquid, the beam magnetic field of the permanent magnet in the floating ball turns the magnetic turning column 180°.

When the liquid level rises, the turning column turns from white to red. It turns from red to white to indicate the height of the liquid level. (The color of the flop and the flop can be different, such as blue and red or black and white, etc.).

When it is necessary to transmit output, install a reed switch or magnetic sensor transmitter parallel to the magnetic indicator to realize the remote transmission of 4-20mA or 0-10mA current signal; equipped with a liquid level alarm switch, and The upper and lower limits of the liquid level can be alarmed.

Function and System Design of Servo Tank Gauge

Maintenance Prediction

Servo tank gauge will provide advance warning of required maintenance, such as replacement of worn wire, etc. The operating life span of electrical and mechanical parts of the servo tank gauge are factory set within the instruments memory. This information is checked with the built‐ in clock and then compared, and registered in the instrument.

Automatic Displacer Weight Compensation

The displacer can be checked for buildup or corrosion by comparing the measured weight of the displacer in the air with the pre‐ programmed displacer weight.

The servo tank gauge can be set to perform periodical checks for the displacer weight; any deviations in the weight will then be corrected and an alarm or memo initiated.

Automatic Compensation of Wire Length

When the displaceris moved from the level position to the reference point(mechanicalstop within the instrument),the calibration can be checked. If there is any deviation outside the tolerance, the instrument will emit an alarm. If the deviation is within the tolerance (set by the customer), an automatic recalibration will be done. This function can be working manually or automatically in pre‐set time intervals.
