Separation vessel
Level measurement and point level detection in a separator vessel tank for recovery of raw materials

Process data
Measuring task:
Level and interface measurement, point level detection
Measuring point:
Vessel
Measuring range up to:
15 m
Medium:
Water-based media and hydrocarbons
Process temperature:
+20 … +80 °C
Process pressure:
0 … +16 bar
Special challenges:
Alternating media properties, emulsions
Application
These processes often involve the separation of water-based media from hydrocarbons. In most applications, the upper, lighter medium is electrically non-conductive. Guided radar level measurement makes use of the effect that non-conductive media allow some of the radar energy to pass through, thus enabling a measurement of the interface between the water-based lower medium and the hydrocarbons.
