|
Process data
Measuring task:
Level and pressure measurement
Measuring point:
Pump shaft
Measuring range up to:
10 m
Medium:
Water
Process temperature:
0 … +25 °C
Process pressure:
0 … +1 bar
Special challenges:
Mud, sand, lightning strikes
Application
Water obtained from wells adjacent to lakes and rivers is called bank filtration. The flowing water constantly seeps through the riverbed and mixes with the ground water. The level of water must be constantly monitored for an optimum extraction of water. The pump pressure is also monitored in the delivery line.
