ARCHON’S magnetic gauges are proven method to measure liquid levels. Our gauges are the safest and most economical way to measure and control your level requirements. They can be installed on almost any shape, size or type of vessel in the industry. In applications of extreme pressure, temperature, vibration or highly corrosive or hazardous material, our magnetic gauges will perform where others fail.

Principles of Operation

The chamber is constructed of non-magnetic materials. Process connections mate with those of the tank, vessel or other equipment where the level is to be measured.

The chamber is constructed of non-magnetic materials. Process connections mate with those of the tank, vessel or other equipment where the level is to be measured.

The float is engineered and located inside the chamber. It is sized and weighed to the specific gravity of the process fluid to be measured. The float contains a 360° magnetic assembly which generates a strong uniform magnetic circuit. The magnetic flux lines generated by the float interlock with the indicator. The hermetically sealed Indicator, the Wide Flag™ or Wide Tracker™ style, contains its own magnetic assemblies which interlock with the float through the chamber, providing a strong and reliable design. As the float moves with the changes in the liquid level, the magnetic attraction between the indicator and float will ensure that the indicator will track the position of the float exactly, and the liquid level is measured precisely.
