Chemicals, Water Treatment, and Process Liquid Level Automation Solutions

Volivue provides radar liquid level transmitters, ultrasonic level sensors, and combined ultrasonic-radar liquid level systems for chemical storage tanks, reactors, wastewater treatment basins, water treatment plants, and industrial process vessels — with technology selection guided by medium and process conditions, covering simple clean tanks through demanding process containers.

Industry pain points

Level management challenges in chemicals, water treatment, and process liquids

Operator reading a fogged sight glass on a chemical tank during rounds
Sight glasses and float gauges fail exactly when conditions get demanding.
01

Steam, foam, and corrosion cause instrument misread

Vapor, foam, corrosive media, high temperature, and pressure inside chemical tanks cause conventional ultrasonic or float instruments to fail frequently; application-specific selection is required.

02

Overfill and pump dry-run risk is hard to control

Delayed or unreliable level data prevents effective prevention of chemical spills (environmental and safety incident risk) and pump dry-run events (equipment damage).

03

Multi-tank level data is fragmented

Chemical plants often have tens or hundreds of tanks; isolated instrument signals cannot be aggregated into DCS/SCADA or ERP, leaving operations data siloed.

04

Simple cases do not warrant expensive radar

Clean water tanks and wastewater basins with uncomplicated conditions are over-specified and over-budget if fitted with high-end radar; a tiered selection path is needed.

Business value

Quantified benefits and risk reduction

01
Reduce overfill and dry-run riskAccurate, reliable level signals support high/low-level alarm interlocks, reducing chemical spill and pump damage incidents and improving safety and environmental performance.
02
Improve chemical consumption controlAccurate tank inventory data supports raw material procurement planning, reducing shortages and overstocking and lowering working capital tied up in inventory.
03
Unify multi-tank visibilityAll level signals aggregate into DCS/SCADA via 4-20mA/Modbus, or push to operations platforms via API, giving operators a single plant-wide level view.
04
Tiered selection avoids over-specificationPairing ultrasonic with simple tanks and radar with demanding tanks controls per-instrument cost while maintaining reliability across the full plant.
