Process data
Measuring task:
Water level measurement
Measuring point:
Screen
Measuring range up to:
0 … 5 m
Medium:
Water
Process temperature:
+10 ... +30 °C
Process pressure:
0 … 0 bar
Special challenges:
Buildup, abrasion, foam
Application
Mechanical cleaning removes entrained floating matter with screens or sieves. This protects the downstream process stages from buildup, clogging and abrasion. Solids with diameters greater than 25 mm are trapped in the coarse screens, compressed in a press and then disposed of. Finer secondary screens remove smaller residual materials. Measurement of the difference in water level between the front and the back of the screen determines the degree of contamination and initiates the cleaning of the screen when necessary.
