Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of transformer radiating oil tank, and particularly relates to a transformer radiating oil tank liquid level meter. BACKGROUND

[0002] The transformer radiating oil tank liquid level meter is a device for monitoring the liquid level height of insulating oil (transformer oil) in a transformer oil tank, and its core function is to ensure that the oil level is in a safe range, thereby guaranteeing the heat dissipation efficiency and insulation performance of the transformer. The traditional liquid level meter (glass tube type, pointer type) indicates the scale and triggers an alarm signal through a float or a mechanical connecting rod; the modern intelligent type adopts a split design, the probe is adsorbed to the outer wall of the oil tank to avoid the risk of oil leakage, integrates a temperature and pressure sensor, and transmits data remotely through a CAN bus or wireless communication.

[0003] At present, the commonly used small and medium-sized transformer radiating oil tank adopts a tubular liquid level meter, which reflects the change of the oil level through a float lifting mechanism. When the oil level in the oil tank is normal, the oil enters the liquid level meter cavity through a connecting pipe, the float (usually a hollow ball or a cylinder) rises and falls with the oil surface, and drives the color mark in the window. The tubular liquid level meter is generally composed of a seamless steel pipe, a float indicating device, a thick-walled glass window, and a pressure relief valve. The window adopts an embedded design, the outer contour is consistent with the pipe diameter, bumping is prevented, and 360° visual observation is supported, and the top integrates a pressure relief valve (such as YSF series), which automatically opens to release pressure when the pressure in the oil tank exceeds 35 kPa, thereby protecting the safety of the oil tank structure.

[0004] At present, the float (hollow ball or cylinder) of the tubular liquid level meter moves up and down in the pipe, and impurities (metal chips, sludge, etc.) in the oil are easily attached to the inner wall of the pipe due to adsorption and volatilization accumulation and other reasons. As the impurities accumulate, the resistance to the float will greatly increase, which easily leads to deviation of the liquid level indication, and the oil level meter needs to be disassembled and cleaned regularly. However, disassembly and cleaning are relatively troublesome and time-consuming. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
