With a wide variety of options available on the market today, it can be difficult for maintenance and new works managers to determine which products are best suited to their specific needs.
In this article, we'll explore some key considerations when choosing instrumentation for your chemical and petrochemical industries - providing you with information to make an informed decision that guarantees results.
The excellent reliability and measurement accuracy of the chosen measuring instruments enable us to enhance process performance to guarantee maximum availability and optimize operating costs.
Improving plant efficiency with adapted measuring instruments specific to your processes allows you tooptimize energy and raw material consumption.
The performance thus achieved generates substantial savings in operating and investment costs:
Pressure measurement is used in many process applications in the chemical and petrochemical industries (distillation columns, reactors, diaphragm seals, etc.).
These applications are characterized by very wide temperature and pressure ranges, and operate in highly corrosive media (chlorine, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, etc.).
It is based on the information obtained from a differential pressure measurement, the gauge pressure or absolute pressure is used to obtain real-time level, flow and density measurements.
Fuji Electric has developed a wide range of hydrostatic level sensors with diaphragm seal(s) resistant to the most severe chemical aggression.
They are ideal for the storage and supply of raw materials for processes (buffer tanks, storage of solvents, toxic liquids, ammonia, chlorine, etc.).
Our diaphragm seals pressure transmitters are temperature-compensated to ensure accurate, reliable measurements under all ambient and process conditions.
The materials used in their manufacture guarantee long life (stainless steel, Hastelloy C®, Tantalum, Monel®, etc.).
Safety is our top priority. Our industrialpressure transmitters are certified for use in hazardous areas and comply with SIL (IEC 61508) safety and integrity regulations.
The chemical and petrochemical industry is a complex sector, requiring highly specialized instrumentation expertise. The slightest error in measurement can have disastrous consequences for production and worker safety.
That's why it's essential to call on an expert in the field. He or she can help you choose the equipment best suited to your production line, install it correctly and maintain it periodically.
You'll be able to optimize your output and ensure the safety of your personnel. Calling on a professional in instrumentation for the chemical and petrochemical industry is a wise investment to ensure the long-term future of your plant in a demanding and constantly evolving sector.
Fuji Electric has a wealth of experience in the development of measuring instruments. These tools are ideally suited to particularly demanding applications, such as the chemical, oil & gas and nuclear industries.
This expertise has enabled Fuji Electric to position itself as an essential competence center. We are now recognized in process industries worldwide.
What's more, the instrumentation produced in our French factories stands out for its performance. In fact, these products are among the most efficient on the market.
Our engineering teams are on hand at every stage of your project: diagnosis, consulting, development, co-engineering, solutions, commissioning, instrument calibration, operating assistance and maintenance contracts to provide the most appropriate response to your needs, and support you in controlling and making the most of your measurements.
