Distillation column

Level and pressure measurement in the distillation of primary products

Process data

Measuring task:
Level and pressure measurement
Measuring point:
Tank
Measuring range up to:
0.4 m
Medium:
Hydrocarbons
Process temperature:
-50 … +400 °C
Process pressure:
-0.5 … +2 bar
Special challenges:
Buildup, contamination and high temperatures

Application

The process temperatures in a distillation column place high demands on the measurement technologies deployed. The boiling point of the distillate frequently exceeds 400 °C. The aim is to achieve the highest possible product throughput for cost-effective operation of the plant. This means the raw material replenishments need to be optimally controlled by level and process pressure measurement in the column.
