Displacer-Type Level Transmitter

12/10/2009 2:36 AM

can anyone tell me how to find the weight of the displacer + hanger in air = ?,

the details are as follows

length of the displacer (L) = 35.6 cms

diameter of the displacer (D) = 4.24 cms

volume of the displacer = 22x4.24x4.24x35.6/7x4 = 502cubic cms

displacer extension length = 319.8 cms

specific gravity of oil = 0.911

weight of the displacer + Hanger in air (W) = ? grams

( how do i get this answer pls help me to find the equation and the formula used to get in grams)

Did you try to contact the manufacturer? And why do you need to know the weight? The easiest way is to disassemble and weigh each component then add the weights for a total. Knowing the sizes is only going help if the material the component is made of, is it hollow or solid?

The basic equation for weight is;

Weight = (mass * gravitational acceleration) / (gravitational constant)

I am assuming this is in a level switch and would try the manufacturer first.

Good Luck
