Process data
    Measuring task:
    
    Level and flow measurement
        Measuring point:
    
    Tank
        Measuring range up to:
    
    2 m
        Medium:
    
    Machine oil
        Process temperature:
    
    +20 … +80 °C
        Process pressure:
    
    +5 … +6 bar
        Special challenges:
    
    High pressures
Application
In the press section of a paper machine, very high pressures are needed for dewatering the stock. Hydraulic oil stations provide the supply to the various parts of the machine as well as filtering and cooling the recirculating lubrication system. Integrated pumps provide oil to the required locations and to enable fully automatic operation of the station, the flow rate and the level in the supply tanks must be measured.
