Hangzhou Plant Practice: Ultrasonic Sludge Level Meter Assists Sludge Sedimentation Monitoring [Dayu Electronics]
Mud Level Monitoring in Sludge Sedimentation Tanks at a Hangzhou Plant: Application Practice of Ultrasonic Sludge Level Meter
On August 16, 2025, a project for mud level monitoring in sludge sedimentation tanks was carried out in an orderly manner at a plant in Hangzhou. The project focused on sludge sedimentation tanks equipped with stirring devices within the plant, aiming to accurately grasp the mud level conditions with advanced equipment and improve sludge treatment efficiency.
During the operation of the sedimentation tank, after sediment and a small amount of small stones enter the water tank, the stirring device starts to mix them thoroughly. When stirring stops, the sediment and small stones gradually settle to the bottom of the tank. At this point, the ultrasonic sludge level meter plays a key role: its probe is lowered to a determined position below the water surface, measuring and displaying the specific thickness of the settled sediment and small stones in real time. By checking the data on the indicator head, staff can promptly arrange subsequent work, such as removing the upper water, clearing the bottom sediment, and separately stacking the upper mud and the lower small stones, because the small stones settle first and the sediment covers them afterwards.
In terms of product selection, after fully considering the on-site working conditions and the owner's special requirements, the ultrasonic sludge level meter produced by Fuzhou Dayu Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. was ultimately chosen. This device can accurately and in real time collect the thickness of the sediment and small stone sediment layer in the water tank when the customer needs to measure it, and clearly display the corresponding data on the indicator head, providing reliable decision-making basis for the staff.
There are also strict precautions during the installation and use of the ultrasonic sludge level meter. There must be no obstructions between the probe's emission angle and the sediment surface; if the stirring blades are still above the sediment, measurement must be performed while avoiding the blades. At the same time, ensure that the probe is positioned below the lowest water level to guarantee the accuracy and stability of the measurement data.
In this mud level monitoring project at the Hangzhou plant's sludge sedimentation tank, the ultrasonic sludge level meter, with its precise measurement performance and reliable usage effectiveness, provided strong support for the plant's sludge treatment work, contributing to more efficient and scientific sludge management.
