Level Measuring for

Shipping on the Rhine

The BIBO Regio is a bilge de-oiling boat on the Rhine, which col- lects this bilge water in a buffer tank. The

OPTIFLEX TDR meter from KROHNE is used to monitor the level. The buffer tank is 2.8 m high and can contain 18 cu. m.of bilge water. As the Rhine Navigation Administration

Basel was happy with the KROHNE level meters used up to now, they exchanged an older model for the cur- rent generation of OPTIFLEX type meters.
