Measuring level in water and wastewater:
What technologies are used?
Four applications: Problem solving by utilizing reliable and accurate technology
- Lift Stations; heavy maintenance, poor reliability (humidity/foam/condensation)
- Chemical Tanks; poor accuracy, poor reliability
- Open Channel Flow; poor accuracy & temp changes…
- Bulk tanks, scum pits, Digesters; foam, dirt, condensation and temp changes
