Application
Coal fired power stations use huge amounts of cooling water. This water is usually taken from rivers, with the help of specially built intake structures. At these extraction points, reliable level measurement in all weathers and surface conditions is needed to ensure an ample supply of cooling water for the operation of the plant.
