Product/Service Name
Weka Magnetic Level Indicators
Function/ApplicationsControl Components Pty Ltd are the first company outside of the principal Weka AG in Switzerland that are licensed to manufacture in Australia the most popular ranges of Weka Magnetic Visual Level Indicators. The visual level indicators find application wherever liquid is stored in tanks and vessels where it is important to locally, or remotely, see the level of the contents.
The Weka visual level indicators are principally constructed of 316 stainless steel wetted parts, although for some corrosive liquids Control Components offer to construct them of ABS, Polypropylene, PVC, PVDF and even fibreglass reinforced plastic. The most common liquid applications are diesel, hydrocarbons, water, various acids and alkalis, refrigerants and sundry chemicals.
Magnetic Level Indicators require no power to operate and effectively are totally maintenance free. They are easily read from 10's of metres distant.
Differentiating FeaturesThe patented Weka design is based on the use of Alnico bar magnets enclosed in the floats. Because these magnets are much lighter than competing single and dual ring magnets, Weka are able to build smaller diameter floats that enable the use of smaller bore standpipes. By way of example, the very popular 34000 series has a standpipe of only 33.7 / 29.7mm, yet these units may be rated according to the European Pressure Equipment Directive for application up to 50 bars.
Depending upon the mix of process conditions, Weka Level Indicators can accommodate extremes of temperatures up to 400 Degrees C and down to -162 Deg C, Pressures to 630 bars and specific gravities ( SG ) down to 0.3 gms/cm3.
Control Components custom build every unit that is made at their Sydney facility. They maintain inventories of different SG floats ( 316L stainless steel, Titanium alloy, elastomer and others ), low ( 150 Deg C ), medium ( 250 Deg C ) and high ( 400 Deg C ) temperature indication rails, multiple colours of flags and new stainless steel bodied magnetic switches. Level Transmitters providing 4 - 20mA output are fast tracked through Weka AG for timely delivery.
Most importantly, whatever your need for fluid level indication Control Components staff are there to assist you with all your questions.
