Working Principle

The magnetic float level gauge (also known as a magnetic float liquid level gauge) is developed based on the principles of buoyancy and magnetic coupling. When the liquid level in the measured container rises or falls, the magnetic float in the gauge's main tube also rises or falls accordingly. The permanent magnet inside the float transmits the signal to the magnetic flip indicator through magnetic coupling, driving the red and white flip columns to rotate 180°. When the liquid level rises, the flip column changes from white to red; when the liquid level falls, the flip column changes from red to white. The red-white boundary of the indicator shows the actual height of the liquid level inside the container, thus providing a clear indication of the liquid level.

Measurable and Unmeasurable Media

Media: Various liquids, including corrosive, flammable, and explosive liquids.

Magnetic float level gauges are not suitable for media containing air bubbles or suspended matter.

Conclusion

Magnetic level gauges are a robust and reliable industrial level measurement solution, playing a vital role in process control. Their intuitive local display, high reliability, maintenance-free operation, and excellent performance in withstanding high pressure and high temperature make them ideal for monitoring liquid levels in storage tanks, reactors, and process vessels, and they are widely used in industries such as petroleum, chemical, and power. Despite competition from emerging technologies such as electronic remote transmission and smart instruments, digital upgrades through the integration of remote transmission modules and wireless communication technology have effectively expanded their application boundaries. This allows them to meet the needs of modern factories for remote monitoring and intelligent operation and maintenance, maintaining their position as the preferred solution for level measurement that combines cost-effectiveness and high reliability.
