Principles of Good Measurement: Level Measurement     

 

 

LEVEL MEASUREMENT

 

 

 

One of the most universal measurements needed in almost (if not every) industry is the knowledge of how much you have. This information is needed for storage purposes, controlling processes, or just needing to know how much finished stock is available.  I think you will agree, that every business should be of the numbers and information about their stock, whether it’s stock that needs to be made into something else, or knowing how much you have available to sell.

 

 

There are a number of other reasons, as to why this knowledge is important, such as quality, safety, economics or productivity, so having reliable, accurate and automated information on hand, is essential for modern day manufacturing efficiency. 

 

To have this required efficiency in level measurement, the selection of the correct sensor must be made, depending on what your application or product is.   Aspects like physical and chemical attributes of the product must be considered, also high temperatures, pressures will impact on the choice of sensor, especially when there are any kinds of vapour, foam, dust, static etc. involved in the processes

 

The following VEGA Ranges will help you with your level measurement requirements:

 

Radar - VEGAPULS Range

Guided Microwave - VEGAFLEX Range

Ultrasonic - VEGASON Range

Capacitive - VEGACAP Range

Hydrostatic - VEGABAR/WELL Range

Nucleonic - VEGA OHMART Range

Process Pressure - VEGABAR Range

Differential Pressure - VEGADIF Range
