Store the string length of an array

Good morning everyone, I'm trying to get the length of a string from an array store in a variable so I can then use an "if". I use var_dump () where I can know the size of the string but I do not know how to compare that value, that data will be sent to a JSON and displayed in a DataTables (Jquery), could someone give me a light on this or some other alternative ? Thank you.

$sql = "SELECT q_num, time_start, from_userpart, ts_servicing FROM callcent_queuecalls WHERE q_num = '8010' AND ts_servicing = '00:00:00' ORDER BY time_start DESC";

$resultset = pg_query($conn, $sql) or die("database error:" . pg_errormessage($conn));
$data = array();

    while ($rows = pg_fetch_array($resultset)) {
          $array2 = $rows[2];
          $meuarray = explode(' ', $array2);
          foreach($meuarray as $valor) {
              $imprime = strlen($valor);
                  echo $imprime."</br>";
          }
    }

SOLUTION

$array2 = $rows[2];
$intlen = strlen($array2);
if (($intlen === 8) || ($intlen === 9) || ($intlen === 11) || ($intlen ===        12)) {


    $meuarray = explode(" ", $array2);
    foreach ($meuarray as $valor) {
        $str = str_split($valor);
        if (($str[0] === '1') || ($str[0] === '2') || ($str[0] === '7')) {
            $exlui = array_shift($str);
        }
        $implode = implode("", $str);


        echo "<pre>";
        var_dump($implode);
    }
}
