Density and interface measurement in the sulphur decanter
Process data
    Measuring task:
    
    Density and interface measurement
        Measuring point:
    
    Horizontal bullet
        Measuring range up to:
    
    15 m
        Medium:
    
    Elemental sulphur and water
        Process temperature:
    
    +90 … +120 °C
        Process pressure:
    
    +1 … +3 bar
        Special challenges:
    
    Double wall tank, very aggressive medium
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.
