Application

Through the addition of chemicals, phosphates in the wastewater are precipitated out, for example in primary sedimentation, in aeration systems or in special precipitation and secondary clarifiers. Precipitants like ferric chloride bind the phosphate chemically and deposit it in the sludge. In the storage tanks for these chemicals, a level measurement and point level detection system is deployed for continuous inventory control and optimal dosage.

Your benefit

Reliable
Reliable measurement right through tank top
Cost effective
Tank is less expensive because it needs fewer process fittings
User friendly
Simple installation
