Flow meter device provider with Kaidi86: Radar level meter adopts non-contact measurement, and has the advantages of high measurement accuracy, not affected by process conditions, easy to install and easy to maintain, so it is widely used in offshore oil platforms in recent years. Today, we would like to take you through several actual cases in offshore oil platform to understand the reasons and solutions of the radar level meter’s measurement value jumping. The first case was an oil field where the radar level meter in the left crude tank jumped to full scale several times during production. A sealed metal cover was used to cover the main body of the sensor, and during the test, it was found by connecting the radar level transmitter that the closed metal cover would result in more false signals throughout the measurement range, and the overall noise line would rise.

What are the characteristics of radar water level meter? All measuring components are designed in an integrated manner, and there is no mechanical wear during measurement. Because the measurement is a non-contact measurement, it is not affected by the physical properties such as the density and concentration of the water body, it is not easy to be washed away by floods, has a long service life and is easy to maintain. The advantages of the radar level transmitter are obvious. The editor warmly reminds that to choose the right one, it is still necessary to meet your own situation.

For more accurate measurement in deaerators, magnetrol guided wave radar (GWR) is a preferred option. Since its performance and accuracy are not contingent on the specific gravity and/or inference, it can provide reliable measurements in all situations, including the difficult and turbulent process conditions of deaerators and feedwater heaters. In addition, GWR does not require external inputs or calibration to achieve specified performance. This effectively eliminates the introduction of errors during the calibration process or from external sources, i.e., pressure and temperature. With this high level of accuracy, operators can trust that their deaerators will be well controlled.

Effective Echo Management- Pulse radar technology generates echoes at certain time intervals. This feature enables radar sensors to handle echoes and distinguish echoes. A common occurrence in complex process vessels and solid material silos. This capability greatly enhances the accuracy of measurements in situations where traditional methods may struggle. The versatility and dependability of radar level measurement make it suitable for a range of applications. Here are some important areas where radar sensors excel- Process Tanks-In industries, radar level sensors are deployed to monitor levels in process tanks. Whether its chemicals, petroleum products or water treatment facilities radar sensors provide real time data to optimize process control. Storage Tanks- Large scale storage tanks require precise level monitoring to efficiently manage inventory and prevent overfilling or underfilling. Radar sensors are the trusted choice for maintaining inventory balance.

The radar level gauge works by electromagnetic waves. Its working principle is to measure the specific liquid level by transmitting electromagnetic waves to the measured target. After the electromagnetic waves are emitted, they are reflected by the medium. For the radar level gauge, its key function is to ensure that it can transmit magnetrol guided wave radar signals smoothly. In our industrial production site, interference often occurs, so which interference sources will affect the measurement of the radar level gauge? let’s see.

Rod antenna: generally used in strong corrosive environments, with weak anti-interference ability and small range; Flare antenna: stronger anti-interference ability, suitable for more complex environments. The larger the bell mouth, the more concentrated the energy, and the larger the measuring range; Parabolic antenna: the focusing effect is stronger than that of the bell mouth, the anti-interference ability is the strongest, and the range is the largest.

So what can be done about these difficulties? Under the condition of strong dust, on the one hand, the radar with high transmitting energy can be selected, on the other hand, the measurement software with continuous measurement algorithm of wave-loss waiting can be selected. When the radar encounters strong dust, it will not misjudge the measurement result even if the radar loses wave for a short time. After entering the state of continuous measurement algorithm, if the reflection wave of real material surface can be recognized within the set waiting time, the correct measurement value of material surface can be obtained. In the past, only a few foreign radars have this function. At present, there are also domestic radars with this function, and the practical application effect is very good.

For the ultrasonic instrument that continuously measures the liquid level, when the temperature of the liquid to be measured changes greatly, the change of the propagation speed of the sound wave should be compensated. The connecting cable between the detector and the converter should take anti-electromagnetic interference measures. The structure of the ultrasonic level sensor should be determined according to the process requirements and on-site working conditions.
