Pumping station
Level control in a pumping station
Process data
    Measuring task:
    
    Level measurement
        Measuring point:
    
    Tank
        Measuring range up to:
    
    0 … 10 m
        Medium:
    
    Wastewater
        Process temperature:
    
    0 … +35 °C
        Process pressure:
    
    0 … +1 bar
        Special challenges:
    
    Abrasion, foam, high humidity
Application
Wastewater from households and businesses, together with surface water, is carried to the wastewater treatment plant via an extensive sewer network. If the natural gradient is not steep enough, numerous pumping stations are required to create a sufficient height difference. The level measurement in the inlet shaft is used for cost-effective control of the pumps.
