Chemical Resistant Level Indicator
Instrumentation designed to measure liquid levels is essential to ensure both safety and efficiency for companies in the chemical industry. Krueger Sentry Gauge is here to provide such instrumentation. For over 75+ years that we have been in business, safety, and reliability have been our primary concerns. We use components produced by us or other American manufacturers to comply with the Buy American Act. It’s with these materials that we produce a significant variety of both stainless steel and plastic chemical gauges that include:
- All Plastic and All Stainless Steel Liquid Level Chemical Gauges (Type PH and Type H-S3)
- Liquid Level Chemical Gauge (Type PD and Type D-S2)
- Chemical Barrel Gauge (Type PB and Type B-S3)
- Overfill Alert Gauge (Type PO and Type O-S3)
Chemical Liquid Level Gauge Applications
Stainless steels, specifically 316L, are the most frequently used materials for gauges, however, certain kinds of plastic and other chemically-resistant materials may also be employed. This depends on the application that the gauge is being used for. Given the sheer number of applications, it can be helpful to have experts to guide you. Our experience is what sets Krueger Sentry Gauge apart from our competitors. It allows us to offer insight into both gauge material and type to meet the requirements of specific applications. Some of these include:
- Injection
- Chemical Reactors
- Chlor-Alkali Process
- Deionization Tanks
- Distillation Towers
- Fermentation Vessels
- Liquid Extraction
- Liquids Storage
- Mixing and Blending Systems
- Neutralization
- Scrubber Vessels
- Surge Drum
Chemically Resistant Tank Level Gauges
Often, the chemicals used within these applications are corrosive. Therefore, companies within the chemical industry are required to adhere to thorough international guidelines like EN13922, PED, and ATEX. We at Kruger Sentry Gauge understand that these regulations ensure that both procedures and equipment are safe and systematic to protect the employees and environment. Our tank gauges are designed and manufactured with this fact in mind. They are equipped to work with chemicals that include:
- Sulphuric Acid
- Bleach/Sodium Hypochlorite
- Hydrochloric Acid
- Acetone
- Chlorine
- Caustics/Sodium Hydroxide
- Potassium Hydroxide
The chemical industry is a central element in the world economy. It consists of companies that convert raw materials such as oil, natural gas, air, water, metals, and minerals into over 70,000 different products—primarily polymers and plastics. The most common of these include polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene terephthalate, polystyrene, and polycarbonate. These products are used in a wide array of consumer goods, as well as in agricultural manufacturing, construction, and various service industries. Rubber and plastic products, textiles, apparel, petroleum refining, pulp and paper, and primary metals are the most prominent industrial customers. Globally, the chemical industry is valued at close to $3 trillion. At Krueger Sentry Gauge we are proud that we can help make this industry both safer and more profitable each year.
