The summer flood season has arrived, and this year many of the regional water levels have exceeded or reached historical levels, and water level monitoring is already underway. Input level transmitters are commonly used for reservoir level measurement, river depth measurement and so on. Due to the complexity of the outdoor environment, the installation point of the input level transmitter should try to choose a place with lightning protection device, for the areas where lightning strikes often occur, special lightning protection measures should be taken.
Input level transmitter The circuit protection has been considered in the design to avoid the sensor being pierced by lightning and reduce the maintenance difficulty and maintenance cost. When a lightning strike occurs, the protection circuit can play a role in reducing lightning damage. But can not be 100% protection of the product, but also with the help of more lightning protection measures. Next we provide you with a few protective measures to solve the problem of lightning strike input level transmitter.
Program 1: start from the grounding system, the shell of the level transmitter should be grounded. Instrument working power such as 24V negative and instrument signal ground, computer input and output signal ground and other accurate grounding.
Program 2: Install a surge protection system or surge protector for the input level transmitter to ensure that the input level transmitter will not exceed the voltage limit. Surge protectors can sense lightning surges during thunderstorms and send the overload current to earth.
Option 3: Set up signal channel surge device for input level transmitter, which can not only ensure accurate, stable and flexible information transmission, but also can drain the overvoltage surge to the earth in thunderstorms to ensure the safety of signal transmission.
Program 4: Regular input level transmitter power system grounding, converging strip, grounding body, surge device, power supply lightning grids and other inspection and maintenance, timely replacement.
