Float Type Level Controller for Marine Use
A float-type level controller is a simple, reliable, and widely used device for monitoring and controlling liquid levels in tanks. Its operation is based on the fundamental principle of buoyancy: a float, which is less dense than the liquid, rides on the surface. The vertical movement of the float is then translated into a switching action or a continuous level signal.
Overview
Working Principle
The basic working principle of a float level controller involves the float rising and falling with the liquid level. This movement is then translated into a mechanical action or an electrical signal. Depending on the design, the float can directly actuate a switch, or its position can be sensed by various means (e.g., magnetic sensors, reed switches).
Components
1. Float: A buoyant object that floats on the surface of the liquid.
2. Stem or Rod: A guide for the float, often used to transmit the float's movement.
3. Switch or Sensor: Detects the float's position and sends a signal.
4. Control Unit: Receives the signal from the switch or sensor and performs an action (e.g., turning a pump on or off).
5. Mounting Hardware: Used to install the controller in the tank.
