Avoid Downtime: LPG Spherical Tank Level Measurement
LPG spherical tanks are essential for storing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) under high pressure. Due to the hazardous nature of LPG, accurate level measurement is crucial for safety, efficiency, and regulatory compliance. However, LPG storage presents several challenges, including low dielectric constants, limited access for maintenance, and the need for high-precision measurement in harsh conditions.
Challenges in LPG Spherical Tank Level Measurement
LPG spherical tanks operate under pressurized conditions to maintain LPG in liquid form. Several challenges make level measurement complex:
- Low Dielectric Constant: LPG has a low dielectric constant, making traditional sensors prone to signal loss and inaccurate readings.
- Limited Maintenance Access: These tanks are often inaccessible for long periods, requiring a highly reliable, maintenance-free measurement solution.
- Foaming and Surface Disturbances: During filling and emptying, turbulence and foaming can interfere with conventional level measurement technologies.
- Complex Tank Structures: The spherical design can cause signal reflections, requiring advanced signal processing for accurate measurement.
Why Accurate Level Measurement is Essential
Incorrect LPG level monitoring can lead to overfilling, increasing the risk of pressure buildup, or underutilization of storage capacity. To ensure safety and efficiency, an optimal level measurement system must provide:
✔ Continuous, real-time monitoring to prevent safety hazards.
✔ Reliable measurement despite low dielectric constants and tank geometry.
✔ Non-contact operation to ensure long-term performance without frequent maintenance.
