Precise measurements in inaccessible places
Level measurements are crucial for the safe and efficient operation of production and warehouse processes. This not only allows you to monitor liquids in containers to optimize process control, but also to avoid critical overfills or product defects. From food production to chemical processing and energy generation – with the right level measurement equipment, you can ensure safety, quality and precision.
Level measurement determines the fill level of various media such as liquids in containers used for industrial purposes. Depending on the method used, the respective level measuring devices, modes of operation and areas of application also differ.
In continuous measurement, the fill level is continuously monitored, e.g. in silos or other containers, so that the precise height of the liquid can be checked at any time. This type of measurement is used to control and monitor processes and uses various sensor technologies: ultrasound, radar, capacitive measurement methods or hydrostatic level measurement.
Point level detection is a level monitoring system in which sensors are used to determine whether a predetermined level is exceeded or undercut by indicating that the limit value has been reached. This level measurement is used for safety and alarm functions and ensures that there is no vacancy or overfilling.
Level measurement plays a crucial role in a wide range of areas by providing precise information about the amount of materials in containers, tanks and silos, but also in water technology facilities. Level measurement technologies are versatile and cover a wide range of media:
Continuous level measurement is particularly common in sectors such as agriculture, chemicals, petrochemicals, andwater and wastewater treatment plants. It makes it possible to continuously monitor and document the exact fill level, which is essential for efficient process control and monitoring. These sensors are capable of providing reliable data under a wide range of conditions, including high temperatures and aggressive media processing.
Point level sensing, on the other hand, is used to ensure that critical maximum or minimum levels are not exceeded or undercut, which is of great importance in applications such as water management or chemical production. With this type of measurement, situations that could lead to overfilling or dry running can be avoided. In this way, point level measurement contributes to the safety and efficiency of industrial processes.
