80GHz Radar for High Temperature Tank and Reactor Levels

For reactors, buffer knockout tanks and similar process equipment, operating temperatures tend to run high, and steam together with condensate commonly appear within the vessel gas space. When carrying out level measurement for such units, our preferred instrument option is…

Guided Wave Radar vs Pressure-Based Level Sensors

Guided wave radar and pressure-based level sensors are common contact-type instruments used for liquid level measurement in industrial storage tanks. Pressure-based level sensors represent a more traditional measurement method; they offer consistently stable performance and are highly trusted by users…

Non-Contact Level Measurement for NaOH Caustic Tanks

For a project involving level measurement in a sodium hydroxide (NaOH) storage tank, the client had previously used pressure-based level transmitters. Given the corrosive nature of the strong alkaline medium, we recommended an 80 GHz non-contact radar level transmitter; compared…

RF Capacitance Level Transmitters for Turbine Oil Tanks

For a turbine oil tank level measurement project, the client specified an RF capacitance level transmitter with a 700mm coaxial rod probe and PTFE insulation. The operating conditions are 200°C and 24 bar, with a 4–20 mA + HART output…

Guided Wave Radar Level Transmitters: Alternative to Other GWR Brands

In industrial tank level measurement applications, high-performance guided-wave radar level transmitters—such as the Eclipse 706-512B-320—have become the ideal choice for many high-precision operations due to their stable measurement performance. The 316 stainless steel model, in particular, meets the measurement requirements…

Type S Thermocouple – Rhodium Thermocouple

The Type S thermocouple (Model WRP-130) is a high-temperature platinum-rhodium thermocouple. Classified under the “S” graduation, it is primarily used to measure temperatures ranging from 0°C to 1600°C and belongs to the category of noble metal thermocouples. Type S thermocouples…

Portable ultrasonic flow meters feature two sensors that function as both transmitters and receivers. Users simply attach the two sensors to the outside of the pipe at a specific distance. The V-method (two-way sound path), W-method (four-way sound path), or Z-method (relatively mounted, where the sound wave passes directly through the pipe being measured) can be used.

The flow meter controls the two sensors to alternately receive and transmit ultrasonic waves, measuring the propagation time between them and calculating the time difference. This time difference is proportional to the fluid velocity.

We at Sino-Inst supply various types of ultrasonic flow meters, including wall-mounted, handheld, and portable models. They are widely used for flow measurement in various liquid pipelines. Please feel free to contact us for inquiries!
