From these two perspectives, what is the difference between a magnetic flap level gauge and a magnetostrictive level gauge?

In many industries, you should be able to see a piece of equipment - a liquid level gauge. As we all know, a liquid level gauge is a measuring instrument that measures the position of liquid within a medium container. There are various types of liquid level gauges, which are used in different industries according to different working conditions and medium shapes. Since the function of a liquid level gauge is almost to measure the position of a liquid in a medium, many liquid level gauges have many similarities. Today we will explain the difference between magnetic flap level gauge and magnetostrictive level gauge.

1. According to the basic working principle of the liquid level gauge: the magnetic flap level gauge is sometimes called a magnetic flap level gauge by people in the industry. The working principle of the magnetic flap level gauge is based on the principles of buoyancy and magnetism. When measuring the liquid level, the float in the flip-plate liquid level meter floats on both sides with the liquid level in the medium. If the medium level rises, the float will rise. When the float falls, the flip column above the liquid level gauge rotates to provide a clear indication of the liquid level.

The working principle of the magnetostrictive level gauge is not based on buoyancy and magnetism. The magnetostrictive liquid level gauge is a dual-function liquid level measuring instrument and is a low-precision measuring instrument. It mainly uses the principle of magnetostrictive and can measure the liquid level of various media. It can be said to be the most versatile. The most commonly used liquid level measuring instrument.

2. Analysis from the usage method: When measuring the liquid level, the liquid level in the medium can be indirectly and simply observed. It is more suitable for liquid level indication in petroleum, chemical and other industrial fields. Due to its intuitive structure, the liquid level observation is clear and intuitive, and the benzene level meter also has the characteristics of no clogging and no leakage. Compared with other liquid level meters, the magnetic level meter is intuitive to install and easy to maintain.

The magnetostrictive liquid level gauge consists of three parts: a petroleum electronic head, a detection rod and a float. Electronic heads are usually equipped with low-tech microprocessors, temperature sensors, etc. It is a key component for indirect level measurement and data storage. The detection axis of the liquid level gauge usually consists of three coaxial circular tubes. The outer tube must be made of anti-corrosion material, and the inner tube is a waveguide made of magnetostrictive material. Compared with other types of probe rods, it has the characteristics of short service life and high measurement accuracy. This technology has been widely used in low-precision, high-reliability liquid level measurement technology.

More than that, we will analyze the difference between magnetic flap level gauge and magnetostrictive level gauge for you in terms of working principle and usage method.
