UWT Solution in Xylene Through a Glass Pane

Capacitance full detection in paint manufacturing through a glass pane.Level indicators working with the capacitive measurement principle can be used in all types and shapes of tanks, regardless of whether these are metallic or non-metallic. Due to their high sensitivity, their compactness and the range of probes, they are suitable for a wide variety of industrial process requirements. In order to coordinate a constant flow of material, timed to match the manufacturing process, the plant manager of a huge paints corporation was looking for a robust and compact level monitoring system for xylene tanks.

Key Considerations for MFCs in Harsh and Hazardous Chem and Petrochem Locations

In chemical plants and petrochemical refineries, safety procedures and protocols protect both people and production systems from explosions and other hazards. Equipment under these protocols includes mass flow controllers (MFCs), which are used to precisely measure and control the flow of gasses in critical processes.
Given the rugged and hazardous conditions in these facilities, you need to determine how MFCs are designed in order to specifically meet (or exceed) applicable standards and classification approvals. Factors to consider include how well it can withstand environmental conditions and how much wear and tear it can take while still retaining precise, stable flow control over its life cycle.
