The safety and efficiency of any chemical and petrochemical industry depends largely on the selection of the right instrumentation. From pressure transmitters reactors to distillation column level measurement, state-of-the-art technology is essential to successful operations.
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 blog post, we'll explore some key considerations when choosing instrumentation for your chemical and petrochemical manufacturing process - 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 achieved in this way generates substantial savings on operating and investment costs:
Pressure measurement is used in many industrial 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.).
Real-time level, flow and density measurements are obtained from the information provided by a differential, absolute or pressure measurement. gauge pressure or absolute pressure measurement 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 resistant to the most severe chemical aggressions.
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 diaphragm pressure transmitters are temperature-compensated to ensure accurate and 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 priority. Our industrial pressure transmitters are certified for use in explosive areas and comply with SIL safety and integrity regulations (IEC 61508).
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.
Thanks to the experience it has acquired in developing measuring instruments adapted to the most difficult applications (chemical, oil & gas, nuclear, etc.), Fuji Electric has become a key centre of expertise, recognised in process industries throughout the world.
This expertise has enabled Fuji Electric to position itself as an essential competence center. We are now recognized in process industries worldwide.
The instrumentation produced in our French factories is among the best on the market.
Our teams of engineers are on hand throughout your projects: diagnostics, consultancy, co-engineering development, solutions, commissioning, instrument calibration, operating support and maintenance contracts to provide the most appropriate response to your needs and help you to control and make the most of your measurements.
