Marine Diesel and Greywater Ultrasonic Level Sensor

When a California shipyard needed reliable level measurement for their customer’s diesel, water and greywater holding tanks, they turned to Flowline. Yacht manufacturers typically install float type magnetostrictive level sensors that fail over time due to material build-up, resulting in fuel shortages and greywater overflows. For this reason, Flowline suggested the use of our non-contact ultrasonic level sensors that are unaffected by sticky diesel or coating wastewater. The shipyard has since standardized on this solution and are now retrofitting 1-2 yachts per month. The ultrasonic sensor provides continuous level data to the multi-tank level controller, which in turn, displays tank levels and actuates high or low level alarms. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
