Process data
Measuring task:
Level measurement and point level detection
Measuring point:
Tank
Measuring range up to:
5 m
Medium:
Wet strength agent
Process temperature:
+20 … +40 °C
Process pressure:
0 … 0 bar
Special challenges:
Aggressive, water contaminating medium, high importance on the availability of the measurements
Application
Wet strength agents are polymeric additives that increase the water resistance particularly of hygienic and specialty papers. These are applied in the paper machine via a size press or spraying device. Because of their high pH value, these substances are stored in double-walled GRP (glass reinforced plastic) tanks. For safety and operational reasons, multiple level measurements are needed in these tanks.
Your benefit
Reliable
