Acid slurry tanks
Acid level control and pressure monitoring
Process data
    Measuring task:
    
    Level and pressure measurement
        Measuring point:
    
    Tank
        Measuring range up to:
    
    4 m
        Medium:
    
    Acid liquid
        Process temperature:
    
    +25 … +200 °C
        Process pressure:
    
    +1 … +15 bar
        Special challenges:
    
    Highly aggressive acids and vapours, hazardous area
Application
Acid slurries in the alkylation unit create an aggressive environment that requires robust, highly resistant level measurement instrumentation to withstand the conditions. Accurately reporting the process levels ensures that there is ample acid available for proper execution of the alkylation process.
