Overview

The KM26 Magnetic Level Gauge has provided custom engineered solutions to liquid level applications in industries such as: oil and gas, refinery, chemical, petrochemical, power generation and many more. The KM26 MLG has proven itself to be a safe, reliable, maintenance free solution for total and/or interface level detection in toxic, corrosive, high pressure and high temperature processes.

Features:

  • Highly visible level indication with no process fluid in contact with the glass
  • All construction in-house by code certified welders
  • Float designed and weighted for maximum accuracy with 75 grams minimum upward buoyant force
  • Transmitter and switch options which can be installed, adjusted and maintained with no process interruption
  • Safe for corrosive, flammable, toxic, high-temperature and high-pressure applications
  • Rugged design - low or no maintenance

Magnetic Level Gauge Switches

ABB's magnetic level gauge switches for point level alarm and/or control can mount to a KM26 magnetic level gauge or an LS Series cage level switch.

These switches are completely isolated from the process fluid as they are magnetically activated by a magnet equipped float (KM26) or attraction sleeve (LS Series). The unique magnetic coupling action eliminates seals, diaphragms, springs, and torque tubes common to other level switching alternatives since there is no physical contact with the process fluid. The magnetic coupling also eliminates process connections to the switch; therefore, no isolation valves are required to block off the switch for maintenance. The switch "set point" is easily adjustable without changing any process piping and the result is a more reliable and easier way to maintain level system.

Customer benefits:

 

  • No process piping or valves required
  • Easy mounting and adjustment; only small screwdriver required
  • Trip point infinitely adjustable without changing process piping
