Pressure measurement in the pressure screen
Process data
    Measuring task:
    
    Pressure measurement
        Measuring point:
    
    Pressure screen
        Measuring range up to:
    
    2 bar
        Medium:
    
    Paper suspension
        Process temperature:
    
    +20 … +50 °C
        Process pressure:
    
    +1.5 … +2 bar
        Special challenges:
    
    Pressure surges, abrasion, contaminants in the suspension
Application
Pressure screens are used to filter out impurities and separate fibres in stock preparation. A rotating screen basket inside the filter does the actual filtering. Pressure screens have an inlet for the suspension, an outlet for accepted stock and a discharge for rejected stock and contaminants. The process conditions are characterized by pressure surges as well as abrasion and contaminants in the stock. Efficient screening requires a controlled pressure difference between inlet and outlet, which therefore requires continuous, reliable measurement.
