Radiometric Measurement Solutions for the Petrochemical Industry

In order to produce a variety of plastics and polymers, petrochemistry deals with the synthesis of hydrocarbon compounds, derived from the refining of crude oil and/or processing of natural gas. During the production of polymers, extreme conditions can occur, such as high-pressure and high-temperature. Thus, conventional density, level and level-switch measurement solutions can often not […]

 Innovative Solutions for the Animal Feed Industry

When equipping a Chilean plant for animal feed production with compatible level measurement technology, the focus was on high measurement reliability and flexible installation options. Modern guided radar technology was installed within several boilers, which is intended to ensure a continuous production process, unaffected by changing process conditions. Unwanted downtimes could thus be reliably prevented. The installed UWT devices with special high-quality booms offered the operator suitable and economical solutions.
