Automatic Water Level Control in Cooling Tanks for Uninterrupted Production
Cooling water is essential for maintaining production line stability and product quality. This system features intelligent automatic water level control for both primary and secondary cooling water tanks, monitoring levels in real-time and automatically opening replenishment valves when levels drop below preset values. This eliminates risks of insufficient cooling, uneven temperature distribution, or equipment dry-running caused by manual oversight, ensuring continuous, uninterrupted production.

Frequently Asked Questions
With this automatic replenishment function, if the replenishment valve fails and stays open, could it cause the tank to overflow?
The system includes dual protection measures. First, the water level sensor features a high-level detection point that triggers alarms and can force-close the main water inlet if overflow is detected. Second, all tanks are equipped with overflow outlets to drain excess water. Regular inspection of valves and sensors is recommended as preventive maintenance.
Are there water quality requirements for the source used by the automatic replenishment system?
Yes. We recommend using filtered industrial water or softened water. Untreated tap water or groundwater may contain scale and impurities that can clog sensors, valves, or spray holes, affecting system performance and contaminating cooling water. Proper water quality management is essential for long-term reliability.
If there is a sudden water supply interruption, what protective measures does this system have?
The system operates on "replenish if water is available, alarm if not" logic. During water outages causing levels to drop to extremely low alarm levels, the system activates audible/visual alarms and can automatically slow down or stop the production line. This prevents continued operation under insufficient cooling conditions that could lead to product deformation or equipment damage.
