Configured instruments

Configured level measurement packages for tanks, silos, wells and process vessels

WELK Level configures level instruments around the actual measuring point: range, connection, wetted material, output, display, alarm logic, cable, chamber, antenna, documentation and OEM identity.

Radar, hydrostatic, magnetic and control packages

Common requests· 01

What can be configured.

Custom configuration without changing the measurement principle

Custom level solutions are used when a standard listing does not match the vessel, medium, signal, installation or documentation requirement. The measurement principle still has to be technically suitable; customization should not be used to force the wrong sensor into a difficult application.

Typical requests include radar with flange, horn, lens or air-purge configuration; guided wave radar with rod, cable or coaxial probe; hydrostatic probes with cable length, material and junction box choices; magnetic gauges with switches or transmitters; and controller packages for local indication or alarm output.

For OEM and distributor orders, WELK can review private label, model code, nameplate content, manual format and packing requirements. Safety approvals, hazardous-area marking and performance limits must match the actual product and confirmed documentation.

Capabilities· 02

Configured around the measuring point.

Configured sensor families

Radar, guided wave radar, ultrasonic, hydrostatic, magnetic gauge, magnetostrictive, DP and point level switch packages can be reviewed by application.

Process connection adaptation

Thread, flange, bracket, chamber, top mount, side mount, cable suspension and remote display arrangements are matched to the installation point.

Wetted material review

316L, PTFE, PP, PVDF, PVC, ceramic, lined structures and anti-corrosion cable choices are checked against medium and temperature.

Display and control packages

Transmitters can be paired with local displays, controllers, relay alarms, RS-485 links or cabinet interfaces when the project requires more than a sensor.

OEM and documentation

Distributor labels, model codes, manuals, calibration records, packing marks and certificate packages can be aligned before repeat orders.

Silo and inventory projects

Center-point radar, air-purge radar, rotary paddle switches and 3D silo scanning are reviewed by dust, vessel height and inventory accuracy needs.

Workflow· 03

From site conditions to confirmed build.

Collect process data

Confirm medium, range, vessel drawing, connection, pressure, temperature, material, output signal and quantity.

Day 0

Select measurement principle

Engineering checks whether radar, ultrasonic, hydrostatic, magnetic, guided wave radar, DP or a switch is technically suitable.

1-2 business days

Confirm configuration

Range, connection, cable or probe length, housing, display, relay, material, documentation and OEM requirements are frozen before quoting.

After data review

Build and inspect

Assembly, parameter setting, wiring, output checks, appearance review, accessory check and packing preparation follow the confirmed specification.

Per order scope

Ship and support

Shipment documents, optional calibration records, packing photos and after-sales guidance are prepared according to the confirmed order.

Before dispatch

Configuration table· 04

Options that matter before production.

Configuration item	Typical options	What WELK must confirm
Radar antenna / lens	Horn, lens, compact, flange, air purge	Frequency, beam angle, nozzle, vapor, dust and measuring range
Guided wave probe	Rod, cable, coaxial, segmented probe	Dielectric, pressure, temperature, buildup, vessel height and installation clearance
Hydrostatic probe	Cable length, diaphragm, nose cap, anti-corrosion body, junction box	Liquid density, depth, cable route, outdoor sealing and surge protection
Magnetic gauge package	Side mount, top mount, switch, transmitter, insulation or jacket	Density, pressure, temperature, center distance and material
Level switch output	Relay, PNP, NPN, NAMUR, dry contact	Fail-safe logic, alarm point, power supply and PLC input
Display / controller	Local indicator, wall display, relay controller, RS-485 link	Panel location, signal type, alarm logic and power supply
OEM identity	Nameplate, model code, manual, carton mark	Brand files, target market, document language and repeat-order quantity
Inspection documents	Calibration record, COC, packing photos, third-party inspection support	Document package and inspection timing before production

Available options depend on the selected instrument family and verified operating limits.

Confidentiality· 07

How project files are handled.

Confidentiality and technical responsibility

Custom projects often involve drawings, old instrument datasheets, installation photos and customer model codes. WELK uses these files only to review selection, quotation, production, inspection and support within the confirmed project scope.

NDA terms can be discussed before confidential files are shared. For safety-related or hazardous-area applications, product marking and documentation must follow the actual certified or documented scope; WELK will not add unsupported approval claims to a private label order.

FAQ· 08

Custom level solution questions.

Can WELK customize a radar level meter with air purge?

Yes, when dust, condensation or buildup makes purge useful. The nozzle, pressure, purge gas and mounting position must be reviewed before confirming the configuration.

Can a guided wave radar be ordered with cable, rod or coaxial probe?

Yes. Probe type is selected by range, dielectric constant, turbulence, buildup, pressure, temperature and vessel geometry.

Can you provide a level transmitter with display and relay output?

Yes. Many projects use a transmitter plus indicator or controller package for local display, pump control or high/low alarm output.

When is 3D silo inventory scanning useful?

It is useful when uneven material surfaces and volume estimation matter. For a single level value or alarm point, radar or a rotary paddle switch may be more practical.

Can WELK make private-label products?

Private label and documentation can be reviewed for suitable orders, but technical limits, safety markings and product documentation must stay accurate.
