Level measurement in biogas plants

Continuous level measurement in biogas plants via the hydrostatic pressure of the liquid column:
The pressure is measured via a robust and highly accurate ceramic sensor and converted into an analog output signal.
The measurement signal is output via an analog output and can be further processed in the control system of the biogas plant. In addition, up to 4 adjustable limit values are possible to trigger direct control processes from the sensor. An integrated data logger also makes it possible to store up to 500,000 measured values and thus analyze the substrate feed of the last few weeks. The measured values can be read out via a Bluetooth interface and further processed in Excel.

Advantage of level measurement in biogas plants

• No build-up, as there is no contact with the medium
• Continuous measurement of the filling level, not only limit contact
• Can be additionally equipped with up to 4 freely adjustable limit values
• Data logger function with 1 million measured values
• Bluetooth interface for data transmission
• Easy commissioning due to large display in connection with plain text programming

Due to the increased plant sizes, but also due to legal requirements, the demands on the plants are increasing. Trouble-free and automated technical processes therefore have a direct impact on the quality of work and the working hours of the operator. The goal is to keep the degree of utilization and plant availability at the highest possible level.
Measurement technology from ACS Control-System can make an important contribution. With over two decades of experience in the fields of level, pressure, temperature and flow measurement technology, we can also offer a suitable measurement and automation package for your plant.
