Process data
Measuring task
Level measurement
Measuring point
Forepeak, wing and double bottom tank
Measuring range up to
15 m
Medium
Salt/fresh water
Process temperature
0 ... +30 °C
Process pressure
0 … 0 bar
Special challenges
Pressure surges, abrasion, aggressive saltwater, ship approvals
Application
The ballast water measurements in the wing and double bottom tanks go directly into the control system for the ship trim, draught and list. Since these measuring points are virtually inaccessible during operation on board, reliability and stability are an absolute must. Pressure shocks, abrasive sand particles and seawater place additional heavy demands on the instrumentation.
Your benefit
Reliable
Exact level measurement in abrasive and aggressive seawater
Cost effective
Low installation and integration costs
User friendly
Maintenance-free operation due to seawater resistant materials
