Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of radar level meter purge devices, in particular to a high-temperature area radar level meter enhanced purge device. Background Art

[0002] In the actual production process, radar level meters often use two measurement schemes, one is high temperature PULS68 plus nitrogen purge direct measurement, the other is PULS69 or PULS64 penetrating mica board measurement. Although the temperature will be lower than 200°C during normal production, from the perspective of long-term operation safety, it is impossible to completely avoid the temperature rising to a very high level in the event of an accident. The pressure resistance of the mica board decreases at high temperature and there is a possibility of cracking. Therefore, the first measurement method has a wider range of applications.

[0003] For example, the Chinese patent with application number CN 202221521633.3 discloses a purging device for a level meter, including a radar level meter body, a flange and a bell mouth. A rotatable mounting plate is provided on the flange of the radar level meter, and an air outlet nozzle that can be raised and lowered is provided on the mounting plate, the air outlet nozzle is rotated to the bottom of the bell mouth, and the bell mouth is transported to the bell mouth, and the dirt and dust in the bell mouth are cleaned by high-pressure gas. This makes it convenient to clean the bell mouth, greatly improving the efficiency of maintenance, and regular maintenance can also increase the service life of the radar level meter, bringing great convenience to production work. In actual use, high-pressure gas can indeed purge and clean the dirt and dust in the bell mouth, but no corresponding protective structure is set near the probe antenna. When the feed is in a high dust state, a large amount of ultrafine powder will still adhere to the probe antenna in large quantities, resulting in unstable signals.

[0004] Therefore, a high temperature area radar level meter enhanced purge device is provided to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
