Photoelectric level sensor for hydrochloric acid level monitoring

Hydrochloric acid is an aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride ( HCl). It is a monovalent inorganic strong acid. It is a colorless and transparent liquid with a strong pungent odor and high corrosiveness. Concentrated hydrochloric acid (concentration is about 37%) is extremely volatile, and fiberglass is usually used for storage . As a widely used chemical raw material in industrial production, many chemical productions are inseparable from the participation of hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid is usually used in industry for metal processing, such as pre-plating treatment of steel parts, which are first washed with caustic soda solution. To remove oil stains, soak it in hydrochloric acid, and before welding metal, apply a little hydrochloric acid on the welding joint, etc. These are all using the property of hydrochloric acid to dissolve metal oxides to remove rust.
Fiberglass is usually used for the storage of hydrochloric acid. The existing storage device does not measure the hydrochloric acid level inside the storage tank, so workers are not clear about the hydrochloric acid reserves in the storage tank during the use of hydrochloric acid. When the hydrochloric acid is suddenly used up during use, it will seriously affect the workers’ work progress, and in severe cases may cause the workpiece to be scrapped, directly causing certain economic losses to users.
Due to the strong corrosiveness and volatility of concentrated hydrochloric acid, in addition to magnetic flap level gauges, float level gauges, ultrasonic level gauges, and radar level gauges are also used, but most of them are more expensive and have poor application effects in hydrochloric acid devices. Not ideal. Gongcai.com recommends the American SMD Fluid Switch high- pressure stainless steel photoelectric liquid level sensor – OS150 is specially designed for high-pressure water and liquid level sensing , capable of measuring with 1/16″ accuracy. The built-in optical electronics provide a switch output level sensor , can sense the presence of liquids with temperatures up to 100°C. This sensor is ideal for corrosion-resistant liquid level sensing or pressure vessel, refrigeration and hydraulic applications. The glass-to-metal seal allows high pressure liquid level sensing up to 1/2. “NPT port installation.
