Product details

1.Float water level gauge product introduction

Float water level gauge is suitable for water level observation stations with vertical water level logging and water level measurement at various hydraulic structures.Float water level gauge is a digital sensor that integrates mechanical and electrical technologies. By converting the angular displacement of the output shaft into the corresponding digital quantity, it can measure the height of the measured liquid level with high precision and confirm the absolute position. It has a power-off memory function.

Its working principle is: the water level sensor measuring wheel is installed on the encoder input shaft, one end of the wire rope is connected to the float and the other end is connected to the weight, and the wire rope is wound around the measuring wheel. When the liquid level changes, the float rises and falls with the change of the liquid level, the wire rope drives the measuring wheel to rotate, and the encoder outputs the corresponding real-time water level value.

The sensor has reasonable structure, strong anti-interference ability, high resolution, large measuring range, long life, and signal tracking and memory function after power failure. It can be used for liquid level measurement for a long time and can ensure stable and reliable performance.

It is widely used in surface water or groundwater level measurement in rivers, lakes, reservoirs, ship locks, reservoirs, hydropower stations, hydrological stations, water plants, as well as petrochemical industries.

3. Working principle of Float water level gauge

Instrument structure and working principle:

The instrument consists of a float, a wire rope, a weight, a measuring wheel, a sensor, a bracket, an output socket and other parts.

The working principle is as follows: the instrument uses a float to sense water level changes. In the working state, the float, the weight and the wire rope are firmly connected, and the wire rope is suspended in the "V" groove of the water level wheel. The counterweight acts to tighten the wire rope and balance it. Adjusting the counterweight of the float can make the float work at the normal waterline. When the water level remains unchanged, the forces on both sides of the float and the counterweight are balanced. When the water level rises, the float generates an upward buoyancy, causing the counterweight to pull the wire rope to drive the water level wheel to rotate clockwise, and the displayed reading of the water level sensor increases; when the water level drops, the float sinks, pulling the wire rope to drive the water level wheel to rotate counterclockwise, and the displayed reading of the water level sensor decreases.

The circumference of the water level wheel of the mechanical water level sensor in this series of instruments is 32 cm, and the water level wheel and the sensor are coaxially connected. Every time the water level wheel rotates, the sensor also rotates, and outputs 32 corresponding digital codes. When the water level rises or falls, the sensor's axis rotates a certain angle, and the sensor synchronously outputs a corresponding set of digital codes (binary cyclic code, also known as Gray code). Instruments with different ranges can output 1024 to 8192 different codes, which can be used to measure water level fluctuations of 10 to 80 meters.

The coded signal can be transmitted to the electrical display or computer in the observation room through a multi-core cable connected to the instrument socket for observation, recording or data processing; the water level meter equipped with an RS485 digital communication interface can be directly connected to a communication machine or computer to form an automatic hydrological monitoring and reporting system or a water condition satellite telemetry system.

The instrument's built-in RS485 digital communication interface (optional) has the functions of site selection and gating, and can transmit information over long distances in a two-wire system. It can drive or receive 31 water level (or gate position) sensors on a pair of twisted pair signal lines to achieve telemetry networking.
