[0002] In petrochemical production, there are many open-air wastewater tanks that require regular start and stop of wastewater pumps to discharge the collected wastewater to sewage treatment devices. Generally, the electrode level meter is used to output the switch signal to realize the automatic start and stop of the wastewater pump. Due to the influence of the measurement environment and on-site installation conditions, the extensive electrode level meter is susceptible to surface foam, bottom sediment, wastewater splashing, and wet short circuits. The electrode signal is easily distorted, causing the wastewater pump to start and stop frequently or run all the time, resulting in a high failure rate of the wastewater pump, which brings great pressure to the company's equipment maintenance. Summary of the invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an electrode-type liquid level measuring device for measuring wastewater floor troughs. A special electrode-type liquid level gauge stainless steel measuring tube and a junction box are set on site. The measuring tube has built-in electrodes, which are fixed on the insulating plate in the junction box and are well isolated and moisture-proof. There are three rows of water inlet holes at different positions on the top surface of the measuring tube. The liquid level is measured by using the principle of liquid communicating vessels. It can effectively prevent the entry of splashing liquid, surface foam, and bottom sediment. There is a flange plug at the bottom to facilitate the cleaning work after the sediment enters the measuring tube. This set of liquid level measuring devices can effectively overcome many unfavorable conditions on site, realize reliable and stable operation of liquid level measurement, and realize effective start and stop control of the wastewater pump.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:
[0005] An electrode-type liquid level measuring device for measuring a wastewater trough comprises a junction box, an electrode for measuring the liquid level is arranged below the junction box, a liquid level meter cylinder connected to the junction box is arranged outside the electrode, a plurality of water inlet holes for liquid to pass through are arranged on the outer wall of the liquid level meter cylinder, and the bottom of the liquid level meter cylinder is blocked by a flange blocking plate.
[0006] An insulating plate is provided at the bottom of the junction box, and the electrode passes through the insulating plate and is connected to the terminal board on the insulating plate. A wire entry hole is provided on one side of the junction box.
[0007] The water inlet holes on the cylinder of the liquid level gauge are arranged in three rows from top to bottom.
[0008] The flange plugging plate is formed by connecting a circular flange plate connected to the cylinder of the liquid level meter and a circular sealing flange plate with the same outer diameter as the circular flange plate, and the two are fixedly connected by fixing bolts on the outside.
[0009] The above-mentioned electrode for measuring the liquid level consists of a high electrode, a low electrode and a common electrode.

[0011] The utility model provides an electrode-type liquid level measuring device for measuring a wastewater trough, which improves the measurement installation method of the electrode liquid level meter for a wastewater trough in harsh environments such as bottom sediments, liquid surface foam, and open air environments.

[0025] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:
[0026] It can adapt to the wastewater tanks with relatively harsh environments. Generally speaking, the wastewater tanks of petrochemical enterprises have more bottom sediments and more foam on the liquid surface. When the water volume is large, liquid splashing is easy to occur, and it is very easy to be distorted under the influence of moisture or rain in the open air environment. Traditional wastewater tanks generally use electrode level gauges to output switching quantities to start and stop wastewater pumps. However, when there are more sediments at the bottom of the wastewater tank, more foam on the liquid surface, or the electrode is connected by moisture or rain at the terminal, it is easy to be distorted, resulting in the wastewater being drained, causing the wastewater pump to dry-grind, causing damage to parts such as machine seals, impellers, and bearings. The new electrode level gauge can effectively isolate the electrode from the operating environment, and through the principle of liquid communicating vessels, isolate the foam, sediments at the bottom of the wastewater tank, and the humid operating environment, to avoid frequent distortion of the electrode level gauge, thereby avoiding damage to the wastewater pump.
