VEGASWING 66
The vibrating level switch VEGASWING 66 is ideal for point level measurement in liquids with extreme temperatures up to +450° C and pressures up to +160 bar.
VEGASWING 66 detects the maximum permissible level of the crude oil in the distillation column and reliably prevents overfilling of the container.
VEGAFLEX 86
The solution
The TDR level sensor VEGAFLEX 86, which is also ideal for use in hot media, measures the actual level in the evaporator. With its operating range of -196° to +450° C and 400 bar, VEGAFLEX 86 is quite suitable for extreme applications. The applied TDR sensor is also SIL2 qualified (IEC 61508) and has all required approvals for use in hazardous areas.
The dependable level control system and fail-safe overfill protection device are installed in the evaporator (reboiler), which is located at the bottom of the column in the petrochemical research facility. Together, they ensure constant recirculation of product and thus effective operation of the entire distillation column.
User benefits
- Robust, long-lived sensors with high temperature resistance
- Universally applicable point level switch not influenced by changing product properties
- Efficient, reliable operation of the distillation column through precise, reliable measured values
- Extensive diagnostic functions and SIL qualification increase plant safety
