  2. INTRODUCTION In several process applications, the accurate control of liquid level in a tank, vessel or a reactor is very essential. In order to ensure the profitability and safety of industrial processes, it is important that the vessels are equipped with instruments that provide consistent and accurate level measurements. All level measurements include interaction between a sensing device, and a product inside a holding container.

  3. DIFFERENT TYPES OF LEVEL TRANSMITTERS

  4. CAPITANCE LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: The capacitor is made of two conductive plates, separated by dielectric. Working principle is based on the variation of electrical capacitance of a capacitor formed by the sensor, the dielectric material, and vessel wall. The change in capacitance is directly proportional to the liquid level. Dielectric is the most significant favtor in level measurement application. 1. 2. 3. 4.

  5. ADVANTAGES OF CAPITANCE LEVEL TRANSMITTERS 1. They are mechanically simple and have no moving parts. 2. They require very less maintenance. 3. They are resistant to turbulence.

  6. HYDROSTATIC LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: 1. Cost-effective and loop-powered transmitters that measure the liquid level precisely and consistently. Compact size is ideal for fitting into pipes with smaller sizes These transmitters are highly popular because of its simple installation. These are highly reliable and robustness. 2. 3.

  7. ADVANTAGES OF HYDROSTATIC LEVEL TRANSMITTERS Sensor technologies and design variations are available for almost every application They have a proven measuring principle with high reliability. The hydraulic level transmitters have direct contact with the medium. They provide robust measuring processes, which are unaffected by factors like vapor, contaminants, dust, buildup, foam, etc. 1. 2. 3. 4.

  8. MAGNETIC LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: 1. Magnetic level transmitters use a small, highly magnetic object, which is suspended in a buoyant float, inside a narrow auxiliary column to restrict the lateral movement of the float. This method is useful for continuous measurement, since the float will sink or rise depending on the liquid level in the tank. However, it will only work if the tank, auxiliary column, and float are made of non-magnetic materials. 2. 3.

  9. ADVANTAGES OF MAGNETIC LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: Can be easily retrofitted into current level chambers Easy process takeoffs with less connections It continues to operate even in an event of electrical power failure Gauge, transmitter, and switches use the same hardware/float Transmitter and switches can be calibrated while the system is still online Ease of mounting 6. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

  10. RADAR FILL LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: These transmitters use radio wave emissions. Radar fill level transmitters are mounted at the top of a tank filled with a liquid. The transmitter sends a radar signal into the liquid and receives a reflection of the signal in return. If the time required to receive the signal is more, then it means that the distance between the sensor and the liquid is more. This points to the conclusion – the liquid level in the container is less. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

  11. ADVANTAGES OF RADAR FILL LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: 1. It provides accurate readings 2. It has minimal contact with the substance being measured 3. It has ease of installation and accessibility

  12. ULTRASONIC FILL LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: An ultrasonic fill level transmitter operates similar to a non- contact radar fill level transmitter. It is typically mounted at the top of a container, which sends out an ultrasonic pulse. This pulse hits the surface of the liquid, and gets reflected. The sensor assesses fill level depending upon the time between the sent and the received signal. 1. 2. 3.

  13. ADVANTAGES OF ULTRASONIC FILL LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: 1. It can measure level without making any physical contact with the substance being measured. 2. The precision of the reading remains unchanged even after alterations in the chemical composition.

  14. LIQUID LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: Their primary task is measuring the level of liquid in a container. These pressure transmitters feature an impulse tube as well as differential pressure transducers. A liquid pressure transmitter measures the liquid’s head pressure at the reservoir. 1. 2. 3.

  15. ADVANTAGES OF LIQUID LEVEL TRANSMITTERS: 1. The devices are easy to set up. 2. They are equipped with impulse tubes made of 316 SS. 3. Liquid level transmitters assure accurate DP measurement. 4. They are suited for a broad range of industrial applications.
