LC/LG ARRANGEMENT

Contents for today's Presentation

 Introduction to Level Gauge

 Type of Level Gauges


oBased on working principle
oBased on end connection

 Steps Involved in LC/LG Arrangement


Introduction
• Level gauges are the type of level
measurement devices which are mainly
employed in the industrial
instrumentation field to detect the
level of liquids or fluids contained by a
storage tank or process vessel.
• Simple and fast means to inspect level
of liquids.
Level Gauges Installed at Site
Type of Level Gauges
Based on working Based on end connection
principle of Level Gauges

• Transparent Type LG • Top/ Bottom


• Reflex Type LG • Side/ Side
• Magnetic Type LG • Side/ Bottom
• Top/ Side
• Back connection
Transparent Type Level Gauges
Working Principle:
Transparent Level Gauges are fitted
with two plate transparent glasses
between which fluid is contained,
level of the liquid is visible as it is
through naked eye.

Application:
•The observation of liquid/liquid
interface
•The observation of the liquid color
•The observation of turbidity
Reflex Type Level
Gauges
Working Principle:

Reflex level gauges working principle is


based on the light refraction and
reflection laws.
Reflex level gauges use glasses having the
face fitted towards the chamber shaped
to have prismatic grooves with section
angle of 90°. When in operation, the
chamber is filled with liquid in the lower
zone and gases or vapors in the upper
zone; the liquid level is distinguished by
different brightness of the glass in the
liquid and in the gas/vapor zone.
Applications:
The observation of liquid level.
Liquid/vapor interface

Limitations

 When the separation level between


two liquids has to be read (interface),
 When, besides the level indication,
observation of the liquid color is
required,
 When the process fluid is high
pressure water/steam
Magnetic Type Level Gauge
Working Principle:
Archimed’s principle according to which
a body immersed in a liquid receives
Bouyancy equal to the weight of the
liquid displaced.
The principle of attraction between
south and north pole of a magnet.

Application
At high pressure, at low or high
temperature
At low pressure, at low or high
temperature.
Chemically aggressive
Pollutant to environment
Poisonous to people health
Inflammable or explosive

• This sheet is forwarded to process


department for level marks, control
limits and visible ranges.
LC-LG Arrangement

Control Range

Control range = (HLL-LLL)+2 ※

Note: ※ marked dimension should


be over 0 mm.
LC-LG Arrangement

Visible Range

The visible range


of LG shall cover
the control range
of LC.
LC-LG Arrangement

If measuring range is
large for covering with
one LG, two or more LG
shall be used.
However, visible range
of each LG shall be
overlap.
LC-LG Arrangement
• Response from Process Department

Process response

• Based on Process input, I&C Department


marked LTs.

• Piping Department defined end
connections for LG and arranged based
on vendor catalogue.

Stand Pipe
If the plural numbers of
LGs are needed, the
standpipe can be used.

Note: Standard size of


standpipe
connection should be 2 inch
and the maximum length of
standpipe shall be 4 m. If
the standpipe length is over
4 m, standpipe size should
be increased.

• Standpipe connection shall be made


directly to vessel and not to process
