Application Fields of Capacitive Level Gauges

Capacitive level gauges measure liquid/solid material levels based on the capacitance change between electrodes and media, featuring simple structure, wide adaptability, high temperature/pressure resistance, and strong anti-corrosion performance. Their main application industries are as follows:

1. Petrochemical Industry

  • Crude oil storage tanks, diesel/gasoline fuel tanks, chemical solvent storage vessels
  • Reaction kettles, distillation towers, oil-water separation tanks
  • Media: crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, benzene, alcohol, various corrosive chemical liquids, sludge
  • Advantages: withstand high pressure, adapt to flammable and explosive environments with intrinsically safe explosion-proof types

2. Water Treatment & Environmental Protection

  • Sewage treatment pools, raw water tanks, dosing tanks for flocculants/acid-base reagents
  • Sludge silos, underground wastewater pits, chemical neutralization tanks
  • Media: industrial wastewater, sewage, mud, strong acid/alkali water solutions
  • Advantages: corrosion-resistant probes, unaffected by foam and floating impurities

3. Food & Beverage Processing

  • Fermentation tanks for wine, beer, soy sauce
  • Edible oil storage tanks, syrup mixing tanks, dairy processing containers
  • Grain powder silos (flour, starch, milk powder)
  • Media: edible liquids, viscous pastes, granular/powdery food raw materials
  • Advantages: hygienic stainless steel probes, easy cleaning, no dead corners

4. Pharmaceutical Industry

  • Drug reaction vessels, liquid medicine storage tanks, solvent recovery tanks
  • Powder raw material hoppers for tablet/capsule production
  • Media: pharmaceutical solvents, high-purity liquid medicines, medicinal powder
  • Advantages: meet sanitary standards, resistant to disinfectants, stable measurement for low-viscosity pure liquids

5. Metallurgy & Mining

  • Ore powder silos, mineral slurry pools, cooling water tanks for smelting furnaces
  • Concentrate storage bins, acid pickling tanks for metal surface treatment
  • Media: mineral slurry, metal powder, strong pickling acid, high-temperature cooling water
  • Advantages: anti-abrasion and anti-corrosion probes, adapt to high-dust solid materials

6. Power Industry (Thermal & New Energy)

  • Boiler water drums, condensate tanks, chemical dosing tanks for power plant water systems
  • Lithium battery slurry mixing tanks, electrolyte storage tanks in new energy factories
  • Media: boiler feed water, chemical water treatment agents, lithium battery electrolyte
  • Advantages: high temperature resistance, stable measurement under high working pressure

7. Building Materials

  • Cement powder silos, lime powder bins, ceramic glaze liquid tanks
  • Glass raw material powder storage tanks
  • Media: cement powder, limestone powder, glaze slurry
  • Advantages: not affected by dust, material bridging and adhesion have little impact on measurement

8. Other Special Scenarios

  1. Refrigeration industry: Liquid ammonia, liquid nitrogen refrigerant storage tanks
  2. Coating industry: Paint, glue, resin storage tanks (viscous media)
  3. Agriculture: Liquid fertilizer tanks, grain granular material silos

Core applicable media summary

  • Liquids: water, oil, solvents, acid/alkali corrosive liquids, viscous slurries, refrigerants
  • Solids/powders: flour, cement, ore powder, grain, medicinal powder, plastic particles

Application of capacitive level gauges in small nitrogen fertilizer plants

Small nitrogen fertilizer plants mainly produce urea, ammonium bicarbonate and other common agricultural fertilizers, involving gasification, carbonization, ammonia recovery, wastewater treatment and other complex production processes. The production environment features corrosive ammonia liquid, circulating desulfurization solution, high humidity, flammable and explosive ammonia gas, as well as medium adhesion and foam interference. Traditional level measuring instruments such as float level gauges and ultrasonic level gauges are prone to failure, stuck movement and inaccurate readings under such harsh working conditions
