SI-3151 DLT Differential Pressure Level Transmitter

SI-3151 DLT Differential Pressure Level Transmitter

SI-3151 DLT Differential Pressure Level Transmitter measures the difference in pressure between two points in a system, converting it into an electrical signal for level monitoring.

To prevent the medium in the pipeline from entering the transmitter directly, the medium and the transmitter are connected by a capillary filled with fluid.

Differential Pressure Level Transmitter is commonly used in industries like oil and gas, water treatment, and chemical processing. It is used to measure the liquid level, flow and pressure of liquid, gas or steam, and then convert it into 4~20mA DC signal output.

Features of SI-3151 DLT Differential Pressure Level Transmitter

SI-3151 DLT differential pressure level transmitter can avoid direct contact between the measured medium and the isolation diaphragm of the transmitter. This measurement method is suitable for the following situations:

  1. The measured medium has a corrosive effect on the sensitive components of the transmitter;
  2. It is necessary to isolate the high-temperature measured medium from the transmitter;
  3. There are solid suspended matter or high viscosity medium in the measured medium;
  4. The measured medium is easy to solidify or crystallize while being guided by the pressure tube;
  5. To replace the measured medium, the measuring head must be strictly purified;
  6. The measuring head must be kept hygienic and pollution is strictly prohibited. Objects of use: corrosive or viscous liquids;

Note: Remote transmitters should not be used in vacuum situations.

Differential Pressure Transmitter for Liquid Measurement

Differential pressure level measurement is a widely used method that involves measuring the pressure difference between the top and bottom of a container. This technique is suitable for various applications due to its accuracy, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.

Differential Pressure Transmitter for Liquid Measurement

The double flange level transmitter is a differential pressure transmitter. It obtains the liquid level height by measuring the differential pressure value of the medium and then according to Pascal’s law. It is mainly used to measure the liquid height in the pressure vessel.

The Differential Pressure Level Transmitter is generally installed on the pressure vessel, and the installation method is side-mounted. During installation, the flange of the double-flange liquid level transmitter and the verticality of the transmitter head should be guaranteed. Otherwise, measurement errors will be caused.

The lower flange of the double-flange liquid level transmitter is the positive pressure side, which is installed on the lower side of the tank in contact with the liquid medium.
The upper flange of the double-flange liquid level transmitter is the negative pressure side, which is installed on the upper side of the tank body and is in contact with the gas medium.

Assume that P2 of the pressure sensed by the flange under the Differential Pressure Level Transmitter, P2=P0+P.
The pressure sensed by the flange on the double flange liquid level transmitter is P0, then the differential pressure value output by the double flange liquid level transmitter is ΔP=P2-P0=P.

In the formula: P2——the pressure sensed by the lower flange of the double flange liquid level transmitter;
P0 – pressure of the gas medium on the upper side of the tank;
P – static pressure of liquid medium

Therefore, the differential pressure value output by the Differential Pressure Level Transmitter represents the liquid height.
Therefore, according to Pascal’s law, it can be known that liquids of the same density are at the same depth, and the pressure of the liquid in all directions is equal.

The Differential Pressure Level Transmitter calculates the height of the medium based on the differential pressure value measured by this principle.

Its formula is:

Liquid level transmitter measurement calculation formula

In the formula: H – the height of the liquid medium measured by the double flange liquid level transmitter;
P – static pressure of liquid medium;
ρ – the density of the liquid medium;
g – acceleration due to gravity

Differential Pressure Level Transmitter is mainly used for process measurement, its small size is easy to install. The verification work of the double-flange liquid level transmitter usually adopts offline verification, which not only saves energy but also improves efficiency, which is convenient and quick.

Questions

Differential pressure is the difference between two pressure values measured at distinct points in a system. It is an essential parameter in various industrial applications, such as level measurement, flow measurement, and pressure control, as it helps monitor and maintain optimal process conditions.

A differential pressure transmitter is an instrument that measures the pressure difference between two points in a system. It is commonly used for level measurement, flow measurement, and pressure control applications. By converting the pressure difference into an electrical signal, the transmitter provides accurate data to control systems, ensuring process efficiency and safety.

A differential pressure flow transmitter works by measuring the pressure difference before and after a restriction in a pipe, such as an orifice plate or venturi tube. As fluid flows through the restriction, the pressure drops due to a change in flow velocity. This pressure difference is proportional to the flow rate, allowing the transmitter to convert the differential pressure into an accurate flow measurement.
