AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

When the tuning fork was used to measure high liquid level alarms, the tuning fork body was easily adhered to solid wax and lost its function, resulting in the tank body losing its interlocking protection, and there was a risk of tank explosion and medium flow.

Method used

An alarm signal level measurement device is designed. By setting an L-shaped tube on the storage tank and installing a pipeline pressure transmitter, a rotor flowmeter, a control valve and a air pump on the L-shaped tube, the pressure is measured by the back-blowing method, and the pressure is reduced by the two pressure transmitters to trigger an alarm.

Benefits of technology

This method avoids the risk of media blocking the pressure duct, and the measurement data is stable, which can effectively avoid errors caused by fluctuations in the storage tank, ensuring the accuracy and safety of liquid level measurement.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of liquid level monitoring, and in particular relates to an alarm signal liquid level measuring device. Background Art

[0002] The wax treatment tank D3302A / B of the HDPE unit receives wax and other by-products produced by the polymerization reaction. The wax is dissolved in hexane, and the hexane is removed by high-temperature cooking. Then water is added to the storage tank to condense the wax into blocks and discharge it from the tank. Wax itself is a more difficult substance for instrument measurement. The wax treatment process increases the difficulty of measurement. The wax just entering the tank and the wax in the high-temperature cooking process are both liquid. After adding water and cooling, they become solid. The selected instrument must meet the requirements of such complex working conditions. The storage tank is equipped with a high-level alarm interlock. When the liquid level rises to the alarm value, the interlock is triggered, the feed is closed, and the steam for cooking is stopped. If the interlock cannot be triggered in time, there will be dangers such as tank overflow and medium cross-flow to other storage tanks. The original tuning fork was used to measure the high liquid level alarm. The tuning fork fork body is easily adhered to by solid wax and loses its function, thereby causing the tank body to lose its interlock protection function. In response to the above problems, our company has proposed an alarm signal liquid level measurement device. Utility Model Content

[0003] Purpose of the invention: The purpose of the utility model is to provide an alarm signal liquid level measuring device to solve the technical problem that the tuning fork body is easily adhered to by solid wax and loses its function when the high liquid level alarm is originally measured by a tuning fork, thereby causing the tank body to lose its interlocking protection function.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: an alarm signal liquid level measuring device, comprising a storage tank, a storage tank pressure transmitter arranged on the storage tank, a feed port and a tuning fork liquid level gauge arranged on the storage tank, characterized in that: an L-shaped tube is arranged through the storage tank, the horizontal plane where the bottom pipe opening of the L-shaped tube is located is lower than the horizontal plane where the tuning fork liquid level gauge is located, and a pipeline pressure transmitter, a rotor flowmeter, a control valve and an air pump are installed on the L-shaped tube.

[0005] Furthermore, the control valve is any one of an electric valve, a pneumatic valve and a manual valve.

[0006] Furthermore, the tank pressure transmitter and the pipeline pressure transmitter are both diaphragm-sealed differential pressure transmitters.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0008] This method is based on the measurement technology of the air blowing method to measure pressure. A certain length of L-shaped tube is inserted below the alarm point of the tuning fork level gauge, and the pressure of the pipeline pressure transmitter is subtracted from the pressure value of the tank pressure transmitter. Under normal circumstances, the value is 0. When the value is greater than the set value, an alarm is triggered. Compared with the existing technology, this method takes advantage of the back-blowing method to measure pressure. The medium will not block the pressure pipe, and the measurement data is stable. By subtracting the pressure of two pressure transmitters, the error caused by the pressure fluctuation of the tank can be avoided. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
