The safety and efficiency of any chemical or petrochemical manufacturing process depend largely on the selection of the right instrumentation. From reactor pressure transmitters to distillation column level measurement, state-of-the-art technology is essential for 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 or 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 you to increase process performance to guarantee maximum availability and optimise operating costs.
Improving installations by using measuring instruments that are adapted and specific to your processes means optimising energy and raw material consumption.
The performance thus obtained generates significant savings in operating and investment costs:
The chemical and petrochemical industry is a complex sector that requires highly specialised instrumentation expertise. The slightest error in the measurements taken can have disastrous consequences for production and worker safety. That's why it's vital to call on an expert in the field. They can help you choose the equipment best suited to your production line, install it correctly and maintain it regularly. In this way, you can optimise your output and ensure the safety of your staff.
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. 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.
Pressure measurement is used in many industrial process applications in the chemical and petrochemical industries (distillation columns, reactors, separators, etc.). These applications are characterised by very wide temperature and pressure ranges, and operate in highly corrosive media (chlorine, hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, etc.). Level, flow and density measurements are obtained in real time from information obtained from differential, gauge or absolute pressure measurements.
Fuji Electric has developed a wide range of hydrostatic level transmitters with diaphragm seal(s) that are resistant to the most severe chemical attack. They are ideal for the storage and supply of raw materials for processes (vats and buffer tanks, storage of solvents, toxic liquids, ammonia, chlorine, etc.).
Our diaphragm seals pressure transmitters are temperature-compensated to ensure accurate, reliable measurements in all ambient and process conditions.
The materials used in their manufacture guarantee a long lifespan (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).
