Depropanizer
Level measurement and point level detection in the depropanizer
Process data
    Measuring task:
    
    Level measurement and point level detection
        Measuring point:
    
    Column
        Measuring range up to:
    
    1 m
        Medium:
    
    Light hydrocarbon
        Process temperature:
    
    +260 … +400 °C
        Process pressure:
    
    +0.5 … +3 bar
        Special challenges:
    
    High process temperature, buildup
Application
Accurate level control of the depropanizer ensures product quality of the obtained hydrocarbons, but this is made difficult due to hot liquids flashing, buildup and high temperature. Even through quick process changes reliable level measurement and point level detection are required to ensure a smooth operation of the plant.
