Dayu Electronics Split-Type Explosion-Proof and Anti-Corrosion Ultrasonic Level Meter Applied in a Yeast Factory
A company in Shandong uses a split-type explosion-proof and anti-corrosion ultrasonic level meter on site. Since the yeast factory environment contains corrosive gases, an anti-corrosion probe is selected, and the explosion-proof main unit offers a higher protection rating, which better protects the internal components and extends the instrument's service life.

Ultrasonic level meters can be classified into explosion-proof and non-explosion-proof types based on explosion-proof requirements. Explosion-proof types are further divided into intrinsically safe and flameproof. Flameproof means the components are assembled and fixed inside a stainless steel enclosure, while intrinsically safe means the components are completely sealed to isolate them from explosive gases outside the cavity.

So, in what situations would you use an explosion-proof ultrasonic level meter?
1. When the measured medium is flammable or explosive, mostly liquids and gases, such as gasoline, alcohol, toluene, xylene, acetone, biogas, marsh gas, hydrogen, etc., which are mostly organic compounds. Solids include metallic magnesium, metallic sodium, yellow phosphorus, etc.
2. Underground mines, including coal mines, iron mines, etc. Almost all mines require explosion-proof equipment.
3. Environments with high dust levels, such as woodworking workshops and coal processing workshops. When dust reaches a certain concentration, it can also cause explosions.
4. Even if there is no direct contact with flammable or explosive liquids or gases, if the equipment is located within an explosion-proof area, explosion-proof ultrasonic level meters and ultrasonic level transmitters are still required. For example, fire water tanks in oil tank farms.

If you want to choose an ultrasonic level meter that is truly suitable for your site, be sure to provide the measured medium and necessary technical parameters to our customer service team, and they will recommend a product that is both economical and of high quality.
