This reference design describes a cost-effective, low-power liquid-level measurement data acquisition system (DAS) that use a compensated silicon pressure sensor and a high-precision delta-sigma ADC.

Hydrostatic pressure produced by the water column at the bottom of the controlled liquid reservoir uses the trapped air in the measurement tube to produce the same amount of pressure on the sensor. At ...

In most applications, level measurements need to be quantified and sent electronically to an automation system, which requires some type of instrument. Sorting through the instrument selection process ...

It takes a large number of control valves to run a power plant, and while some valves are more critical to plant operations than others, it always follows that when a severe service valve fails, the ...

The levelprox is a noninvasive ultrasonic sensing device that provides accurate point level detection of liquids through metal container walls. The levelprox sensor mounts to the outside of a ...

Today on Weekly Boiler Tips Jude dives into various types of level controls—how they work and their applications. 0:34 Trough style valve 2:12 Bi Level Probe 3:55 McDonnell Miller 150 5:26 McDonnell ...

The right level instrumentation is key to keeping boilers on an even keel. Guided-wave radar offers a critical combination of capabilities. If asked to make a short list of factors able to improve ...
