Magnetic flap level gauge common troubleshooting guide

The magnetic flap level gauge is an instrument used to measure liquid level and is widely used in various industrial fields.

Despite its reliable design, some common faults may occur during use.

Here are some common faults and how to deal with them:

1. The indicator flap does not flip

Possible causes:

The float is stuck or damaged.

The flap mechanism is dirty or clogged.

The level gauge is installed at an angle.

Solution:

Check and clean the float to ensure it moves freely.

Clean the flap mechanism to remove dirt and impurities.

Adjust the installation position to ensure that the level gauge is installed vertically.

2. The indication error is large

Possible causes:

Float seal failure, causing water to enter the float.

Float weight changes or wear.

Liquid density does not match design parameters.

Solution:

Check the float and replace if necessary.

Confirm that the liquid density is consistent with the design parameters and recalibrate the level gauge.

3. No indication on the level gauge

Possible causes:

The float has fallen off or is damaged.

The float is stuck by foreign objects.

There is air or bubbles inside the level gauge.

Solution:

Check and replace the damaged float.

Clean the inside of the level gauge to remove foreign objects.

Make sure there is no air or bubbles inside the level gauge.

4. Indicator lag or slow response

Possible causes:

There is scale or sediment in the level gauge pipe.

The movement of the float is blocked.

Solution:

Clean the level gauge pipe to remove scale and sediment.

Check the movement trajectory of the float to ensure there is no obstruction.

5. The flap is faded or the indication is unclear

Possible causes:

Long-term use causes the flap to fade.

Environmental factors such as sunlight and corrosive gases.

Treatment:

Replace the faded flap.

Provide sunshade or protection for the level gauge when necessary.

Maintenance and care

To ensure the long-term stable operation of the magnetic flap level gauge, the following maintenance should be performed regularly:

Regularly check the condition of the float and flap, and deal with any problems in a timely manner.

Clean the level gauge regularly to remove internal sediment and external dirt.

Calibrate the level gauge to ensure accurate measurement.

Ensure that the installation environment is dry and free of corrosive gases to extend the service life of the equipment.

Advantages of our magnetic flap level gauge

Magnetic flap level gauge has several advantages in design and performance, making it popular in the market:

1. High-precision measurement: It adopts high-precision float and magnetic flap design to ensure the accuracy and stability of the measurement results.

2. Sturdy and durable: It is made of high-quality materials, has good corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and is suitable for various complex working conditions.

3. Clear and intuitive indication: The flap adopts bright colors and clear scales, and the liquid level indication is clear at a glance, and it can be easily read even in poor light environments.

4. Easy installation and maintenance: The structural design is reasonable, easy to install, and simple to maintain, which greatly reduces the cost of use.

5. Strong adaptability: It can be widely used in liquid level measurement of various liquid media, with strong adaptability, whether it is high temperature, high pressure or low temperature, low pressure environment, it can work stably.

6. Multiple output methods: It provides multiple signal output methods, such as 4-20mA signal, which is convenient for integration with other control systems to achieve automatic control.

With the above advantages, the magnetic flap level meter not only improves the measurement accuracy and reliability, but also reduces maintenance costs. It is an ideal choice for industrial liquid level measurement.
