Portable Ultrasonic Liquid Level Indicator For CO2
CO2 cylinder specifications (divided by outer diameter):
The CO2 cylinders measured by this instrument are divided into the following 4 specifications:
- 215mm-225mm diameter cylinder
- 270mm-280mm diameter cylinder
- 345mm-355mm diameter cylinder
- 395mm-405mm diameter cylinder
CO2 cylinder measurement operation:
- Select “co2 cylinder”-“select appropriate cylinder diameter” through the menu to enter the measurement interface.
- Place the probe vertically and close to the tank body, and then press the <Measure> button to measure.
- The measurement result is based on the measurement parameters and the liquid level indicator (red for “no liquid”, green for “has liquid”)
- Generally, the measurement starts from the bottom of the tank (liquid level measurement). Normally, measure from the bottom of the tank. If the measurement parameter is >= 2, it indicates that there is no liquid on the current level; on the contrary, if the measurement parameter is <2, there is liquid. If the parameter is around 2, it indicates that there is a short distance (generally about 5cm) between the current level and the liquid level.
- Take multiple points on the same horizontal plane for measurement, and take the result with the highest probability as the final result (avoid interference from welds and unknown factors).
- Gradually find the liquid level position through approximate measurement.
CO2 cylinder measurement
Note: Due to the irregular gas outlet of the CO2 cylinder and a large number of welds on the top, the measurement results at the bottom and top are invalid. (The top is usually empty when the tank is full.)
Precautions for using a portable ultrasonic level indicator:
- Keep the indicator clean, away from water, moist, sudden shock and violent contact
- If the indicator is to be kept idle for an extensive period, it is better to turn off the indicator and store it properly.
- The indicator should be kept in an ambient temperature between 0℃~+40℃(32°F~104°F). The surrounding air should not contain substances that may corrode the indicator
- The ultrasonic probe must avoid being crashed, damped, and corroded by chemical substances.
