Managing a production facility can be the toughest job you ever take. There is so much to keep track of such as the daily, weekly and monthly production targets, the attendance of the workforce, keeping records of the materials that come in and go out which includes the solids, slurries and liquids. Hence there is nothing that can go missing from the knowledge of the management and to keep a flawless record, many people have to be hired whose task is just to make sure that the records are properly created and maintained. The most difficult task is to keep records of liquids present in the production facility. Without having the liquid level indicator, the staff would be blind about liquids because there is no way the liquids can be measured inside the gigantic tanks.

Various types of liquids are being used in the factories all over the world. Some of the liquids are highly volatile and they require to be handled with extra care. Hence the factories which are using such liquids are needed to take all precautions before procuring the liquid because without providing complete security to the liquid, it can be a mini bomb ready to explode within the facility. In many countries a production facility is bound to get permission to store and use volatile liquids. The production facility is required to submit a plea to the local authorities explaining about the nature of the liquids they would be using and why they would be using them. The authorities then pay a visit to the facility and check how the liquids will be handled. It is their duty to ensure that the liquid’s presence won’t become a national security threat and the people who would be working around the liquids won’t be at risk of losing their lives.

After the survey of the area is completed, the authorities begin their phase two which involves checking of the equipment such as the storage tanks, the quality and positioning of the pipes through which the liquid would be flowing. And finally they check on the measurement instruments such as the gauges and the ultrasonic level indicator. Until the authorities are completely satisfied with the set up of the production facility it is not given a green signal to begin production using the sensitive liquids. After the inspection is complete and the facility passes all examinations and inspections, the order is issued and the liquids are procured. Thus the production facility starts using the liquids and begins manufacturing its products.
