When an East Coast pharmaceutical company needed reliable level measurement of their HVAC condensate recovery tank, they turned to Flowline. Temperature control is critical to their products and the warehouse is maintained near 2º Celsius. The HVAC system is designed around fail-safety with redundant power and water sources. Condensate is collected and transferred to a basement storage tank, prior to treatment and recirculation. There the plant engineer required a reliable non-contact level sensor and redundant high-level alarm that would work with foam and particulate in the condensate. For this reason, Flowline suggested our ultrasonic sensor installed in a standpipe to separate foam from the point of measurement, and a vibration level switch, suspended below the tank top. The ultrasonic sensor provides reliable level data to the PLC which controls the process. Flowline is reliable level measurement. |
