Stop Relying on “Just Taking a Look”: A Guy Who Got Burned by Leaks Twice on How to Pick a Liquid Level Sensor

Te wā timatanga whakamutunga, I hoki mai ahau ki te kāinga ki te kite i tētahi puddle i raro i te whakamahana wai tahito i taku papa o raro — kua kōpikopiko te papa rākau i ngā tapa, a, i te aonga ake ka ngokingoki te harore i te kokonga. I taka e te kaiwhakarite inihua he aho: "Mēnā he pūoko turuturu tāu me te whakaweto aunoa, Tērā pea ka taea e mātou te tukituki i tētahi mea i tō utu." I kōrero uaua ahau i taua wā, i kī mai kei te kāinga ahau i ia rā, Māku e mātakitaki noa iho. Kātahi ahau ka haere ki tētahi haerenga wiki. I hoki mai, ā, kua māturu anō te whakamahana wai — hāunga i tēnei wā ehara i te kōwhiringa te "pupuri i te kanohi". I a au kāore i te kāinga, Kua tae kē te wai ki raro o te arawhata. I tērā wā ka tīmata ahau ki te rangahau i ngā pūoko taumata wai, kaua e hoko noa i te whakakā mānu tino māmā hei whakaweto i a au.

Māku e hoatu ki a koe te raina raro i te tuatahi, ako i te ara uaua: Ehara te pūoko taumata wai i te "hoko i te hangarau tino hōhonu." Mēnā ka uru taua pūoko ki tō kura wai, tō waka, tō hohenga mana tūturu. I tīmata hoki ahau mā te Googling i te "pūoko taumata wai tino pai", ā, i tanumia ki roto i ngā rau tohu. He pōraru ake i muri i.

E rua ngā tatūnga o taku wāhi: te kura pūreirei o raro me te whakamahana wai, me te pāro ua me te kura ika i muri. Ngā hiahia rerekē, Nō reira kāore e taea te pūoko te ōrite.

Tīmata ki ngā whakakā mānu. Ariā ngāwari — te kaha, mā te wai e hiki ake, ka huri i tētahi whakakā. Ko taku tuatahi he whakakā mānu whānui, tata ki te rima tāra, kei te raruraru, ka whakatū i te papu ina kī. Ngāwari, Ngāwari, kāore i te pai. Raru: He iti noa iho te paru hinuhinu o taku wai whakamātao, ā, ka āta kāpia te ringa mānu. Ka taka te wai, engari i noho tonu te mānu, ka maroke te papu mo te hawhe haora i mua i taku kitenga. I muri mai ka whakawhiti ahau ki tētahi wae Zoeller tūturu, tata ki te toru tekau tāra, pakari ake, engari kei te mataku tonu i te otaota me te huka. Mēnā he wai mārire tāu, He pono te mānu - kaua e rite ki a au me te utu i runga i te paraurehe kore ingoa.

I āta titiro ahau ki te capacitive i muri mai, nā te mea i hiahia ahau ki te ine me te kore whakatuwhera i te kura. Te Honeywell LS-100 capacitive, kua whakarārangitia tata ki te ono tekau ki te iwa tekau tāra, e kī ana ka rongo ia i roto i te pakitara kura, kāhore he wiri. He tino pai te tangi mo taku kura hiri kaore au i hiahia kia turuturu. I whakamātauria e au — i mau ki runga i te oko kirihou, he pai te pānui taumata. Engari i te wā kotahi ka tauritea te mātotoru o te pakitara, he whata konganuku rānei i tōna taha, ka rere te tohu. Ā, e māharahara ana ki te taimau dielectric o te wai; I whakawhitia e au tētahi momo whakamātao kē, ā, ka puta te pānui, me whakarite anō. Nā reira ehara i te kino te capacitive, He whiriwhiri noa iho mō te tāuta me te wai. Ka haere ngā tīmatanga ki runga.

Ultrasonic i haere ahau nā te mea "kāore he whakapā ki te wai." E iri ana te pūoko i runga ake i te mata, tuku oro, ine i te tawhiti, ka tahuri ki te taumata — kāore te wai paruparu, whakakino rānei e whakararuraru. I kitea e au tētahi mea pai i roto i te awhe e whitu tekau ki te 130. I runga i te kura tuanui, He tino pai ngā marama tuatahi e rua, Taumata mamao i taku waea. Kātahi ka marangai taumaha, ka pupuhi te kura, Ka pōrangi te pāoro, ka peke te taumata o te taupānga pēnei i te EKG. I kī te hangarau tāpiri i tētahi ngongo mārire, neke atu rānei i te maunga i te kōhao. Nā reira e kino ana te ultrasonic ki te huka, kohu, Ngā Pātū Koki — Whakaarohia te "huarere" o te kura i mua i tō whakaekenga.

Conductive I passed on directly — it needs the liquid to conduct. He pai te whakahaere o te oko ua me te wai kura ika, engari whakawhiti ki te wai mā, ki te hinu rānei, ā, ka mate te ara iahiko. Ā, ka tauine ake ngā tirotiro ki te wai mārō, me ūkui auau. He iti noa iho te ōmata, kāore he wāhanga nekehanga, I whakamahia e au ki te pūoho waipuke o te kura ika, tekau tāra, tata. Engari ka kāpō te aki rongo i te wā e whakaahuatia ana e te algae — ūkuia i te nuinga o te wā, ehara i te mea mō te hunga māngere.

Ko te momo pēhanga — te kaituku hydrostatic submersible — ka noho ko taku "matua." Whakataka ki raro, pēhanga pānui, tahuri ki te taumata; Ka taea e te mata te hurihuri, te huka i ngā mea katoa e hiahia ana, Hei aha atu. E rua tekau ki te ono tekau ka whiwhi koe i tētahi mea tika. hopu: me noho tonu te kiato wai; te whare o tōku, nā reira he tika. Hekenga, Me puta mai te taura ki waho kia haumaru ai, he uaua kē atu i te mānu.

I runga i te moni me te tāuta: whakarere i a koe anō, kore mahi. He ngāwari te whakapiri āheinga, engari he mamae te tōkarikari. E hiahiatia ana e te ultrasonic he taiapa - tekau mā rima ngā utu i utua e taku tangata. E hiahiatia ana e te ruku tētahi taura hiri; I kī te hangarau i hē te mahi, whiwhi tohunga, tata ki te toru tekau e mahi ana. Uru katoa: Mēnā e hiahia ana koe ki te pūoho waipuke noa iho, E toru tekau ki te whā tekau mā rima te haere o te kete taumata-ira. Aroturuki motukore mamao me te whakaweto aunoa, kei te kotahi rau rima tekau neke atu koe.

Ināianei ko te moka inihua. I waea tonu ahau ki taku inihua kāinga. I kī te māngai mēnā kei a koe te parenga māturu "pūoho mamao me te whakaweto aunoa", I te wā kerēme ka kīia hei "whakamaurutanga ngaronga hohe" - ka hoatu e ētahi kaikawe he āhua 10% whakahekenga whakahou, iti iho rānei te raruraru i runga i te kerēme. Rangi: kāore ngā kaikawe katoa e mahi, Me pūrongo koe anō i te tāuta, E hiahia ana ētahi ki ngā whakaahua. I whakaurua e au he huinga wai-turuturu YoLink me te whakaweto, ka pana ki taku waea, ka weto ina puta ahau i waho o te taone — ka hoki whakamuri ki taku wāhi tūwhera: Ko te parenga e whai take ana ko te momo mahi i a koe kāore i te kāinga. Kāinga, ka kite koe i te māturu. Ko te kaipatu i a koe e ngaro ana, ā, ka ngokingoki te wai.

Whakamahinga tūturu, e toru ngā ara: ia rā, titiro ki te taupānga i mua i te moenga; haereere, katoa i runga i te pana mamao — i tētahi wā ka whiwhi matohi i tētahi hōtēra, whakaweto i te mamao o te kōrere, I hoki mai ki te kāinga ka kitea he whakaurunga tārewa noa iho, kāore he aitua; āwhā ua, waipuke ua, mānu me te ultrasonic hei pūrua, Ka mapu aunoa te taumata tiketike. Pono, kua ngaua kē ahau e te whakakā pūwāhi kotahi. Ko te motukore me te whakahōutanga te mea e taea ai e au te moe.

Tohutohu whakamutunga: mēnā kei a koe te tahua, kaua e tīmata ki te mānu māmā rawa atu, Kaua hoki e ngote i te "hihiani te mea tino hōhonu." Ko tāku i kite ai: tāwhara kāinga mā, kei te pai te tere; tāwhara kati, whakaaro kaha; wai paruparu, whakakino rānei, ultrasonic, ruku ranei; ngā wāhi taketake, Tāpiri pūoho mamao i ngā wā katoa. Ko te parenga e tika ana, ina kāore koe i te kāinga — e rua ngā māturu hei ako i tēnā. Ehara te pūoko i te utu nui. He aha te utu nui ko te puddle kāore i a koe tētahi mō.
