Pulse Burst Radar Transmitter Eliminates False Alarms in Sodium Hypochlorite Tanks Many water processing plants have implemented level control instrumentation to help achieve critical operational goals. This case study demonstrates how the use of a pulse burst radar transmitter in sodium hypochlorite tanks can help maximize safety – and minimize maintenance costs. The Challenge A water ?ltration plant in Washington was using another vendor’s ultrasonic unit to measure level in its 16-foot tall sodium hypochlorite tanks, but was experiencing excessive false alarms due to the loss of echo and spiking during the o?-gassing process. This issue usually occurred when tanks were in the low- level position and happened so frequently that plant employees had begun to disregard the alarms –
