Level measurement and point level detection of column trays
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 … +4 bar
        Special challenges:
    
    High temperature, buildup
Application
Accurate level control of the distillation unit ensures product quality of the hydrocarbon at the different cuts, but this is made difficult due to hot liquids flashing, buildup and high temperature. Even through process changes reliable level measurement and point level detection are required.
