| Sensing water build up  The Gentech VS323-11N liquid level sensor, solves the problem of water build up at the bottom of low density hydrocarbon liquid tanks and filter housings and prolongs the life of plant equipment, especially hydraulic machinery. Caused by humidity or water contamination in the delivery fuel/oil supply, undetected water build up can lead to failure of equipment or false fuel indication. To counter this, the sensor features a float with “s.g. signature” that will discriminate between the fluids - water and fuel. The buoyancy of the float will be set to float only in water. When mounted at the foot of the tank and when the water collects it forms below the fuel and floatation will occur in the oil to water interface. The sensor then signals the water "build up" which can be remedied by manual venting or pump actuation.Design Features - Detects water contamination in diesel fuel - Internal fitting - Reed Switch reliability - Nitrile sealing components - Easy installation write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
