Radiation Level

Radiation-based continuous level sensors use gamma radiation to measure levels in vessels containing challenging media or operating conditions unsuitable for conventional technologies. These non-contact instruments employ a radioactive source and a detector positioned externally to the tank. Gamma rays pass through the vessel, with varying absorption rates based on the media's density and level. The detector precisely measures gamma ray attenuation, accurately determining media levels even through thick vessel walls, insulation, or internal obstructions. Radiation sensors are ideal for harsh environments involving extreme temperatures, high pressures, corrosive materials, or abrasive solids. Applications include chemical reactors, slurry processing, coal bunkers, and dense media tanks in industries such as mining, petrochemical, power generation, and waste treatment. Advanced integration with control systems facilitates continuous remote monitoring, process control optimization, and regulatory compliance.
