Product overview

The HAWK Magnetic Level Gauge (MLG) is widely applied in the monitoring and process control
of liquid level and interface for many industries; such as petroleum, chemical, power, paper,
metallurgy, water treatment etc.

The SPI and TBI are the standard and special magnetic level gauges of HAWK. The products
are suitable for real time, precise, safe and reliable continuous measurement of process level.
The design adopts a 360° magnetic ring which is hermetically sealed and incompressible.
The indicator uses hermetical sealed glass tube technology to clearly indicate the level, which
eliminates the common problems of glass gauges, such as vapour, condensation and liquid
leakage etc.

Principle Indication by magnetic

bargraph

Based on the principle of magnetic coupling and

buoyancy, the magnetic level gauge provides real-time 360° magnetic
ring
measurement for level and interface.

HAWK’s Magnetic Level Gauge (MLG) is connected to a

Liquid level
process vessel. Within the chamber is a float containing a
360° magnetic ring. Outside of the chamber is an indicator
equipped with a vacuum glass tube, which contains a
bicoloured two-face magnetic bargraph. In response to Magnetic
Chamber coupling line
the level movement, the float moves accordingly, forcing
the magnetic bargraph to turn and change color. True
liquid level is indicated or “read” from the corresponding
point on the measuring scale.
