Application
In a sulphur decanter, the operator must manually verify the interface level of the sulphur deposits as they slowly build up under the water. An instrument that can automate the measurement and enable continuous operation of the process ensures availability of the vessel and minimal impact on the downstream process.
Your benefit
Reliable
Unaffected by process characteristics
Cost effective
Low maintenance device reduces costs of cleaning and recalibration
User friendly
No manual involvement to determine the level
