In the field of industrial automation, the accuracy and stability of liquid level measurement directly affect production safety and efficiency. Recently, the G2 threaded radar level gauge from Shaanxi Shengke Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. has performed excellently in the level monitoring of acid water storage tanks in the catalytic workshop of a brewery in Shandong Province. It has successfully overcome the measurement difficulties caused by the fast liquid inlet speed and large impact in small-volume storage tanks, becoming a technical model in high-dynamic working conditions.
The stainless steel acid water storage tank (with a height of 1770mm) in the catalytic workshop of a brewery in Shandong is a key facility in the production process, used to store corrosive acidic liquids. The storage tank has a small volume (about 1.7 meters high), but the liquid inlet speed is extremely fast, and it can be filled in just 3 minutes. This leads to severe fluctuations in the liquid level, accompanied by interference factors such as foam and steam, posing strict challenges to liquid level measurement equipment. Traditional liquid level measuring instruments, such as float-type liquid level gauges, cannot guarantee measurement accuracy in such high-dynamic and strong-corrosion environments, and frequent mechanical wear also makes maintenance costs high.
To solve the above problems, the G2 threaded radar level gauge from Shaanxi Shengke has achieved accurate measurement through a series of innovative designs:
High-frequency radar waves and intelligent algorithms: The device uses 80GHz high-frequency microwaves, which have a small beam angle and strong focusing ability, and can effectively penetrate foam and steam interference. At the same time, with the adaptive signal processing algorithm, it can track the liquid level changes in real-time, with a refresh rate of milliseconds, ensuring the continuity of data even when the liquid level rises rapidly.
Robust and durable structural design: Considering the strong corrosiveness of acid water, the G2 radar level gauge has been optimized in material selection and structural design. Its shell is made of corrosion-resistant materials, and the internal circuit has undergone special protection treatment to ensure long-term stable operation in harsh environments.
In the continuous testing of a brewery, the G2 radar level gauge has shown excellent performance:
Data stability: During the 3-minute rapid liquid inlet process, the liquid level curve is smooth without jumps, and the real-time error is controlled within ±2mm, providing reliable data support for the precise control of the production process.
Environmental adaptability: In the face of strong acid media, the instrument shows no signs of corrosion, and still maintains the initial accuracy after 6 months of operation, fully demonstrating its excellent adaptability in strong corrosion environments.
Convenience of maintenance: The non-contact measurement method avoids the mechanical wear problem of traditional float-type instruments, greatly reduces maintenance costs, and reduces the production interruption time caused by equipment maintenance.
This case fully demonstrates the unique advantages of high-frequency radar level technology in high-dynamic and strong-corrosion scenarios. Shengke Electronics, relying on the G2 series products, provides efficient solutions for rapid process liquid level monitoring in industries such as food and beverage, and chemical industry. The successful application in the brewery in Shandong not only reflects the technical strength of Shaanxi Shengke Electronics in the field of level measurement but also provides valuable experience for similar working conditions - through precise selection and technological innovation, even in the extreme conditions of "small storage tanks and large flow rates", reliable and stable liquid level monitoring can be achieved, ensuring the efficient and safe production of enterprises.
