Material Selection for Magnetic Level Indicator in Hydrofluoric Acid Level Measurement Magnetic level indicator is mainly used for liquid level measurement. Because measured liquids in industrial field usually are flammable, explosive, and corrosive, material for magnetic level indicator should be selected according to the properties of the measured liquid to ensure longer service life and reliability of the instrument. For example, hydrofluoric acid is highly corrosive. It is essential to select proper material for the chamber and display panel (especially the transparent front cover) of the magnetic level indicator to avoid corrosion. 1. Common materials for magnetic level indicators Generally, materials for chamber and display panel of a magnetic level indicator are selected according to the properties of the measured medium.

Common materials used for chamber are stainless steel 304, stainless steel 316L, stainless steel 304/316L lined with F4 or F46 fluorine tube and plastic PP. Among them, stainless steel 304 and 316L are more popular. If the measured medium could have chemical reaction with the compositions in stainless steel to cause corrosion, fluorine lined stainless steel or plastic PP should be selected as a proper material for the chamber. If the measured medium is at normal temperature and under normal pressure, plastic PP will be a suitable choice. If the measured medium is at abnormal temperature and...

According to the properties of hydrofluoric acid, plastic PP is a good choice for the magnetic liquid indicator used in level measurement of hydrofluoric acid. If the hydrofluoric acid is under good ventilation and certain process pressure, fluorine lined 316L is a better choice. Although aluminum alloy display panel with glass front cover can be used for most of liquids, glass cannot be used as the front cover if the instrument is used for hydrofluoric acid. Hydrofluoric acid is more corrosive to some metals, glass and material containing silicon, because hydrofluoric acid dissolves glass...
