Level measurement in nuclear power plants: Reliability during accidents
Viktor OldenburgerThe N-ALM level sensor from WIKA is a specialised instrument for level measurement in nuclear power plants. It operates reliably under LOCA and BDBA conditions, even in the event of a total loss of power supply. Containing neither active electronics nor organic …
Monitoring the level in liquid gas tanks with a Cryo Gauge
Hardy OrzikowskiIn the past, monitoring the filling level in liquid gas tanks using differential pressure has always been a challenge. This is because the manufacturers of tank equipment had to construct their own measuring systems in order to record the liquid level and the operating …
How does one specify the switch point of a float switch?
Enrico BossartIn the specification of the switch points of a float switch, misunderstandings always lead to unsuitable product designs. How one correctly specifies the switch point of a float switch will be explained here. The basic prerequisite for the correct specification …
Float switch: What is it and how does it actually work?
Enrico BossartFloat switches are simple, universally applicable and exceptionally reliable. It is not a coincidence that, today, float switches still represent the most frequently used principle for level monitoring. But how does a float switch actually work? Float switches, in …
