Float and Board Type Level Gauge
The Float and Board Type Level Gauge is a highly reliable and accurate instrument designed for the continuous monitoring of liquid levels in storage tanks and process vessels. This robust device provides real-time visibility of liquid levels through a float mechanism connected to a calibrated board, making it ideal for a variety of industrial applications. Its simplicity, durability, and ease of use make it a preferred choice for industries requiring precise and continuous level measurement.
The Float and Board Type Level Gauge from IPS Automation is a mechanical level indication
system designed for continuous visual monitoring of liquid levels in large storage tanks and
vessels. It works on the buoyancy principle, where a float moves up and down with the liquid
level inside the tank. This movement is transferred through a wire rope, pulley arrangement,
and counterweight system to an external pointer that travels along a graduated board, giving
operators a clear and easy-to-read level indication from outside the tank.
This type of level gauge is especially suitable for large non-pressurized storage tanks,
including water, oil, chemical, acid, and furnace oil tanks. Since the system is primarily
mechanical, it does not require electrical power for local indication, making it a practical and
cost-effective solution for tank farms, remote installations, utility tanks, and industrial storage
applications where simple and reliable level visibility is required.
Applications
SS316L manifolds are extensively used in industrial process control and instrumentation systems, including:
- Oil & gas processing plants
- Chemical and petrochemical industries
- Refineries and process plants
- Power generation plants
- Boiler and steam systems
- Water and wastewater treatment systems
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing
- Food and beverage processing
- HVAC and utility systems
- Heat exchangers, reactors, and vessels
- Storage tanks and process pipelines
- Laboratory and calibration systems
- Process skids and automation panels
- Temperature measurement with transmitters, indicators, PLCs, and DCS systems
Clear Visual Level Indication
The external pointer and graduated board provide a large, easy-to-read level display, allowing operators to check tank level quickly from outside the tank or from a distance.
Cost-Effective for Large Tanks
Float and board gauges provide an economical solution for continuous level indication in large atmospheric storage tanks compared with more complex electronic level measurement systems.
Customizable Construction
Y strainers can be manufactured in different materials, sizes, pressure classes, end connections, and mesh ratings to match specific process and project requirements.
Low Maintenance Design
Robust construction minimizes maintenance needs and ensures long-term operational reliability.
No Power Requirement
The gauge works mechanically using the communicating vessel principle, so it does not require electrical power, signal wiring, or complex configuration. This makes it suitable for basic level monitoring and backup indication.
Optional Remote Monitoring
For applications requiring automation, the gauge can be integrated with alarm switches, magnetic sensors, transmitter output, or remote indication systems for level alarms and control room monitoring.
Stable Float Movement
Guide wire or guide pipe arrangements help control float movement inside the tank, reducing horizontal movement and improving indication stability.
Suitable for Industrial Storage Applications
The gauge can be used for water, oil, furnace oil, chemicals, acids, effluent, and other compatible liquids, making it suitable for multiple manufacturing and process industries.
