[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of capacitance liquid level gauges, in particular to a double-electrode anti-corrosion capacitance liquid level gauge. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of social economy, water monitoring is becoming more and more accurate. The water level can be monitored in real time through the dual-electrode capacitance level gauge. The dual-electrode capacitance level gauge is based on the principle that the static pressure of the measured liquid is proportional to the height of the liquid. It is made of advanced isolated diffused silicon sensitive elements or ceramic capacitor pressure sensitive sensors. It converts static pressure into an electrical signal, and then converts it into a standard electrical signal after temperature compensation and linear correction. A sensor for measuring liquid level. The basic structure of the dual-electrode capacitance level gauge includes two electrodes, one is called the measuring electrode and the other is called the reference electrode. The measuring electrode is close to the liquid, and the reference electrode is placed at the top or bottom of the liquid. This structure allows changes in liquid level to be detected by changes in the capacitance value between the electrodes.
[0003] However, during use, the existing dual-electrode capacitance level gauge is immersed in highly corrosive liquids for a long time, causing the guide rod inside the dual-electrode capacitance level gauge to be often corroded by the liquid, thereby reducing the service life of the dual-electrode capacitance level gauge and causing the dual-electrode capacitance level gauge to have inaccurate detection problems.
[0004] Therefore, it does not meet the existing usage requirements, so we propose a dual-electrode anti-corrosion capacitance level meter. Utility Model Content

The sealing groove 2 18 is engaged with the sealing ring 2 19, and is set by the reference electrode 9 and the bottom bolt of the stainless steel guide rod 1. As the reference electrode 9 is continuously tightened outside the stainless steel guide rod 1, the anti-corrosion sleeve 12 outside the stainless steel guide rod 1 will be pushed to be continuously pressed against the mounting flange 3, making the anti-corrosion sleeve 12 tighter during the connection process.

By measuring the change in this capacitance value, the height of the liquid level can be accurately reflected, and the dual-electrode sensor 15 will transmit it to the processor in the display head 6 in the form of an electrical signal, and the LCD screen 14 will display the value and transmit the signal to the central control room to achieve remote monitoring and control.
[0041] Working principle: First, when the dual-electrode capacitance level gauge is installed in a container, the reference electrode 9 will be placed at the bottom of the liquid, and the measuring electrode 2 will move with the change of the liquid level. The liquid will enter between the two electrodes as a medium. Since the dielectric constant of the liquid is usually greater than that of the air, the rise in the liquid level will cause the capacitance value to increase, and vice versa. By measuring the change in this capacitance value, the height of the liquid level can be accurately reflected, and the dual-electrode sensor 15 will transmit it to the processor in the display head 6 in the form of an electrical signal, and the LCD 14 will display the value and transmit the signal to the central control room to achieve remote monitoring and control. By setting the anti-corrosion layer 13, the stainless steel guide rod 1 can have a certain degree of corrosion resistance, and the anti-corrosion layer 13 can be an epoxy anti-corrosion coating to reduce the corrosion of the surface of the stainless steel guide rod 1 caused by highly corrosive liquids, and an anti-corrosion sleeve 12 is provided on the outer side of the stainless steel guide rod 1, which plays an important barrier role between the highly corrosive liquid and the stainless steel guide rod 1 to avoid corrosion caused by the stainless steel guide rod 1 being immersed in highly corrosive liquids for a long time, thereby further improving the corrosion resistance of the stainless steel guide rod 1.
[0042] By setting the reference electrode 9 and the bottom bolts of the stainless steel guide rod 1, as the reference electrode 9 is continuously tightened outside the stainless steel guide rod 1, the anti-corrosion sleeve 12 outside the stainless steel guide rod 1 will be pushed to be continuously pressed against the mounting flange 3, and the cooperation of the sealing groove 16 and the sealing ring 17 can enhance the sealing performance between the top of the anti-corrosion sleeve 12 and the mounting flange 3, and prevent the external highly corrosive liquid from flowing into the gap between the two, making the anti-corrosion sleeve 12 tighter during the connection process. At the same time, by the cooperation of the sealing groove 2 18 and the sealing ring 2 19, the sealing performance of the reference electrode 9 and the bottom of the anti-corrosion sleeve 12 can be enhanced, so that the external highly corrosive liquid cannot enter the anti-corrosion sleeve 12 and cause corrosion to the stainless steel guide rod 1. The setting of the LCD screen 14 can display the test results at night, and the setting of the sealing cover 7 can seal the LCD screen 14 to prevent malfunction due to moisture.
