Process data
Measuring task:
Level measurement
Measuring point:
Sludge storage tank
Measuring range up to:
0 … 15 m
Medium:
Digested sludge
Process temperature:
0 ... +30 °C
Process pressure:
0 … 0 bar
Special challenges:
Steam, buildup, condensate
Application
The digested sewage sludge is pumped into a sludge storage tank. This tank serves as an intermediate storage facility before the sludge is fed to the centrifuge or pressed for mechanical dewatering. To ensure optimal feeding, the sludge volume is monitored by a level measuring instrument.
