Low-cost Level Gauge for Tank Applications
ABB’s Measurement Products’ business has
developed an economical magnetic liquid
level gauge—the Econolev LMG100, intended to provide an inexpensive alternative
to traditional exposed glass level gauges.
Suggested applications include diesel storage tanks, water treatment tanks and most
other small tanks for liquids. The gauge has
a simple, standard configuration consisting
of an all-stainless steel chamber and a magnetic float with an orange shuttle indicator.
The shuttle rides in a clear Lexan tube
alongside a stainless steel scale. The gauge
is rated to 275 psi at 200°F and has 1-in.
FNPT side process connections. Maximum
measuring length is 15 ft. Options include
316SS threaded end caps, magnetically
actuated level switches, and a magnetostrictive level transmitter. An AT600 transmitter
can be mounted directly to the gauge to
allow continuous level measurement transmission via a 4-20 mA signal.
