Presenting the Hawk Measurement OptioLaser L100 and L200 Distance and Level Transmitter


HAWK's Laser Transmitters provide a narrow beam for measuring tiny apertures. Fully programmable, they can measure any surface, including liquids. Versatility and precision make them excellent for machine, barrier, and stockpile monitoring. 

Non-contact laser sensor OptioLaser L100 measures distance to solid and liquid surfaces, slurries, and murky water. 50m. Solid surfaces include metal plates on overhead cranes and silo tops. The OptioLaser's easy-to-use menu system allows for distance or level measurement, and its excellent accuracy, long-range, and quick update rate make it perfect for many applications. 

The OptioLaser L200 measures distances to solid and liquid surfaces, slurries, and murky water up to 100m. Solid surfaces include metal plates on overhead cranes and silo tops. The OptioLaser's easy-to-use menu system allows for distance or level measurement, and its excellent accuracy, long-range, and quick update rate make it perfect for many applications.

Safe and Cost Effective Liquid Level Control with Magnetic Level Gauges and Magnetostrictive Transmitters

Magnetic Level Gauges

Magnetic level gauges are a safe, easy, and dependable way to measure fluid levels inside a tank. These visual indicators are a non-invasive, low-maintenance, cost-effective alternative to sight glasses. Because the fluid never comes into contact with the indicating glass, they are exceptionally safe for flammable, toxic, and corrosive liquids. There is no risk of leakage if the glass ever breaks. 

Magnetic Level Gauges (MLGs) are widely used in the monitoring and process control of liquid level and interface in various industries such as petroleum, chemical, power, paper, metallurgy, and water treatment. They are suitable for continuous process level measurement that is real-time, precise, safe, and dependable. 

The magnetic level gauge, bolted to the process vessel, provides real-time level and interface measurement based on magnetic coupling and buoyancy principles. IA float is inside the level gauge chamber with a 360° magnetic ring. An indicator with a vacuum glass tube containing a bi-colored two-face magnetic bargraph connects to the outside of the chamber. The float moves in response to the level change, causing the magnetic bargraph to turn and change color. Additionally, a mating magnetostrictive transmitter provides a continuous analog or digital output. 

The precise liquid level is displayed or "read." The indicator uses hermetically sealed glass tube technology to show the process level clearly. It eliminates, among other things, the common problems associated with glass gauges, such as vapor, condensation, and liquid leakage.

Most Common Applications for Magnetic Level Gauges:

  • Boiler: Steam drum liquid level
  • Power generation: Auxiliary machinery liquid level (HP reheater, LP reheater, de-aerator, condenser and heating network heater etc), chemical water
  • Coal Chemical: Methanol, dimethyl ether, synthesis ammonia/urea, MTO, CTL, SNG
  • Silicon industry: Organic silicon, polycrystalline silicon
  • Petroleum and petrochemical: Oil and gas, ethylene, trimerization and etc.
  • Fine Chemicals: Methane oxide, epoxy ethane, aniline, PTMEG, BDO, carbon fiber, POM, acetic acid, styrene, rubber, crude benzol refining
  • Others: Metallurgy, paper-making, water treatment, biological, pharmaceutical, food and beverage etc.

Winter is Hard On Process Piping, Tanks, and Valves. Protect Them with BriskHeat.

Freeze Protection

We don't want to say we told you so, but .... we told you so. Winter weather is here, and the need to freeze protect vital process control equipment is evident. Frozen pipes, valves, and vessels caused by sub-zero temperatures and harsh winds cause spills, downtime, and unexpected costs. Additionally, frozen equipment presents the danger of shutting down factory production. It's not too late. You still have time to heat trace and freeze protect your critical equipment for the rest of this winter season.

Traditional heat tracing design schemes combine with innovative products, installation, control, and monitoring technologies in BriskHeat industrial heating products. BriskHeat industrial heating products are ideal for maintaining the proper temperature of valves, pumps, joints, crosses, elbows, flanges, pipes, and tees. Heat tracing cable (constant wattage and self-regulating), tote heaters, insulated heating blankets, immersion heaters, and thermostats are all available from BriskHeat. BriskHeat industrial heating products are long-lasting, reliable, and effective. 

With unpredictable weather conditions ahead, you must protect your piping, tanks, and valves. BriskHeat has a solution for every situation. To learn more, contact Alliance Technical Sales at 630-321-9646 or visit the Alliance website at https://alliancets.com.
