Inventory:
• a constant supply or storage of material
Control:
• continuous, batch, blending, and mixing control
• stabilize flow to the next process
Alarming:
• hi/lo limits, safety shut down
Data Logging:
• material quantities for inventory and billing purposes
and where regulatory requirements are necessary

*Note: For liquids other than water, use the density of water 0.0361 lb/in3
as a reference and multiply by the SG of the liquid.
Contacting – dP Level
•suitable for liquids only
•uses same dP transmitter as in dP flow measurement
1. Convection:
By moving molecules in gases or liquids
by natural circulation.
2. Conduction:
Conduction is the transfer of heat
through or across a conductor.
3. Radiation:
Transfer of heat by rays the sun heats
the earth’s atmosphere.
1. Thermocouples
3. Bimetal Thermometers
