A radar level meter is not unfamiliar to everyone, it is widely used in industrial measurement, and it can accurately and quickly measure the height of the liquid in the container. In the chemical industry, hexane is a commonly used solvent, and the level measurement of its storage tank is very critical. In this paper, we will introduce the characteristics of hexane tank level and give two actual measurement cases.
Hexane is a colorless and odorless liquid, and the level measurement in the storage tank is mainly affected by the following factors: first of all, hexane is a volatile liquid, and its evaporation rate is fast.
Therefore, when measuring the liquid level of hexane storage tanks, it is necessary to choose reliable level measurement technology to ensure the accuracy and stability of the measurement results.
Due to its non-contact measurement characteristics, the radar level meter can reduce the possibility of evaporation loss caused by contact with hexane, thus effectively improving the accuracy of measurement.
Secondly, hexane produces large level fluctuations when the liquid level changes.
This is due to oscillation or intense agitation of the liquid in the tank. In this situation, traditional measurement equipment often can not meet the requirements of accurate measurement.
The radar level meter has a strong fluctuation resistance, and can quickly and accurately measure the liquid level change, to ensure the smooth progress of the production process.
Case 1: A chemical plant uses radar level meters to measure the level of hexane storage tanks. Due to the limited conditions of the plant, the height of the storage tank is only 3 meters, and the liquid level changes are small.
The radar level meter has high measurement accuracy, can accurately measure the liquid level changes, and output the corresponding signal to the control system to realize the liquid level monitoring and control.
Case 2: a chemical laboratory using a radar level meter to measure the level of small hexane tanks. As the laboratory requires real-time monitoring of hexane changes, the traditional liquid-level measurement equipment can not meet the requirements.
The radar level meter can monitor the liquid level changes in real-time, and through the connection with the computer, the data will be transmitted to the computer to realize the monitoring and recording of liquid level changes.
In summary, the radar level meter plays an important role in hexane tank level measurement. Its accurate and fast measurement results, as well as strong resistance to fluctuations, ensure the accurate monitoring and control of the hexane tank level. With the continuous development of technology, radar level meters will play an increasingly important role in the field of liquid level measurement.
