When a Midwest chemical manufacturer needed reliable level measurement of their cooling towers, they turned to Flowline. The company refines and supplies nitrogenous fertilizers to agricultural and consumer market resellers. Their manufacturing process operates at high temperatures that are continuously regulated by large cooling towers. The I&C technician explained that the water level of each tower sump is monitored in external stand-pipes, and they were dissatisfied with the reliability of previous ultrasonic level sensors which became erratic during seasonal temperature extremes. For this reason, Flowline suggested our 80-GHz radar sensors that are unaffected by the environment, and ideal for outdoor use in all-weather types. The Bluetooth to App configured radar sensors provide reliable level data to the SCADA, which monitors the towers and controls their refill. Flowline is reliable level measurement. |
