Application
- Oil level measurement of diesel tanks that feed fuel to their diesel generator's which are at three locations and 400 meters apart from each other.
- Also to measure level , pressure and flow to and from their main storage yard.
Challenge
- The measurement points are almost at the ground level for level measurement however pressure and flow is at a height of over one meter from ground.
- There are a lot of trees from around in between the measuring locations.
- The measurement before was just through dip rods and estimation.
Solutions
- Correct positioning of repeater at each of the measuring zone at high locations.
- Positioning of Gateway on top of the storage water tank (which is about 25 meters high from the ground).
- Positioning 3 transmitters (EJX) for monitoring of level, pressure and flow at each measurement place.
Benefits
- Accurate on line level measurement by transmitters instead of using dip rods.
- Eliminates wiring costs.
- Robust communication with low packet error rates.
