Operation instruction manual OI/KM26-EN Rev. E 04.2012 KM26 Magnetic Level Gauges Magnetic Level Gauge, MagWave Dual Chamber Level System and External Chamber K-TEK Products Introduction With over 350,000 installations worldwide, the KM26 Magnetic Level Gauge has provided custom engineered solutions to liquid level applications in industries such as: oil and gas, refinery, chemical, petrochemical, power generation and many more. The KM26 MLG has proven itself to be a safe, reliable, maintenance free solution for total and/or interface level detection in toxic, corrosive, high pressure and high temperature processes. ABB offers the standard KM26 Magnetic Level Gauge with a chamber of virtually any non-magnetic material, extruded process connections, a custom engineered float and all accessories with 316 stainless steel construction. ABB also offers a dual chamber redundant level system, which has a proven record of improving feedwater heater reliability in power plants around the world. The MagWave combines a highly visible magnetic level indicator with the precise level measurement of a guided wave radar transmitter. Redundant level control can be achieved by adding a magnetostrictive transmitter or switch to the float chamber TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.
