Chemical Distributor Tank Radar Level Transmitter

When a Midwest chemical distributor needed reliable level measurement of their solvent and acid storage tanks, they turned to Flowline. The firm receives bulk deliveries at their transloading station where chemicals are pumped from tanker railcars into large storage tanks. There the plant engineer said they needed to replace failing level sensors and stated his requirements. “We want a reliable, non-contact and highly corrosion-resistant sensor that can be applied with acids, caustics or hazardous solvents with a dielectric value ≥ 2.0. Last, if this can be achieved with a single sensor, that’s our preference.” For these reasons, Flowline suggested our intrinsically safe radar sensor that’s flange mounted with a PTFE antenna shield. The radar sensors provide reliable data to the tank indicators and PLC for inventory monitoring. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
