As a commonly used organic solvent, isopropyl alcohol is flammable, explosive, and highly volatile. Accurate measurement of its liquid level is particularly critical for safe production.
So today, the editor will discuss with you the advantages of 80G FM radar level meter in isopropyl alcohol level measurement, and demonstrate its application effect through an actual measurement case.
Isopropyl alcohol, also known as 2-propanol, is a colorless, transparent, flammable liquid with moderate toxicity and a strong smell of alcohol. Its main features include:
1. High volatility: Isopropyl alcohol has a low boiling point and is easy to volatilize. Therefore, when measuring in an open environment, the impact of evaporation loss on the liquid level needs to be considered.
2. Flammable and explosive: As an organic solvent, isopropyl alcohol has certain risks of fire and explosion, especially at high temperatures or near fire sources.
3. Corrosiveness: Isopropyl alcohol is corrosive to some materials, so the measuring equipment needs to have good corrosion resistance.
4. Strong solubility: Isopropyl alcohol can dissolve a variety of organic and inorganic substances, which may affect the accuracy of traditional measurement methods.
The 80G FM radar level meter has the following advantages:
1. High-precision measurement: Through high-frequency microwave signals, the 80G FM radar level meter can provide millimeter-level measurement accuracy to ensure accurate reading of isopropyl alcohol level.
2. Non-contact measurement: Due to the use of microwave signals, the device does not require direct contact with liquids, reducing the risk of corrosion and contamination.
3. Strong environmental adaptability: 80G FM radar is almost unaffected by temperature, pressure, humidity and medium changes, and is suitable for various complex working environments.
4. High safety: Non-contact measurement reduces safety hazards caused by leakage or volatilization.
5. Easy to install and maintain: The equipment is simple to install, has low maintenance costs, and is suitable for long-term stable operation.
In an isopropyl alcohol storage tank in a chemical plant, the traditional float level gauge often suffered misreadings and malfunctions due to the corrosion and volatilization of the medium.
In order to improve measurement accuracy and safety, the manufacturer decided to use an 80G frequency modulated radar level gauge for renovation. After the transformation, the 80G FM radar level gauge successfully realized real-time monitoring of isopropyl alcohol level, which not only improved the measurement accuracy, but also significantly reduced maintenance costs.
In addition, due to its non-contact measurement characteristics, it effectively avoids safety hazards caused by liquid volatilization and improves the safety of the entire production process.
The 80G FM radar level gauge shows significant advantages in level measurement of flammable, explosive and highly volatile chemicals such as isopropyl alcohol.
Its high precision, non-contact measurement, strong environmental adaptability and high safety make it an ideal choice for liquid level measurement in chemical, pharmaceutical and other industries.
