  • Flow Blog: Beer Pipeline and Coriolis Flow Measurement Technology

    Christian Grossenbacher With the end of summer and the beginning of fall comes football season here in the U.S. And what better way to start the season than a good success story about quality beer production. In a Flow Control Magazine article, Coriolis Meters Keep the Beer Flowing , Emerson’s Christian Grossenbacher shares how a Belgium brewery installs the world’s first beer pipeline with critical flow measurements…
  • Flow Blog: Certifying Coriolis Meter Accuracy

    While the Emerson Exchange 365 global user community has a very vibrant forum for DeltaV distributed control system (DCS) users, there is also some great knowledge sharing happening in many of the other areas such as the Measurement Instrumentation , Valves, Actuators & Regulators , and other discussion forums in the Control & Safety Systems groups to name just a few. I wanted to share this recent post, periodic certification…
  • Level Blog: Overcoming Citrus Processing Level Measurement Challenges

    Don Parry Just imagine that you’re an operator in a facility that makes concentrated orange juice and the production process requires you to manually check the levels of large processing tanks in the freezing process conditions. Parkas and gloves are a part of your work attire. These were the conditions as told in an excellent story told in Processing magazine, Radar Level Measurement Improves Inventory Control for…

  • Flow Blog: Improving Performance with Flowmeter Diagnostics

    Tonya Wyatt What is the perfect flowmeter? Emerson’s Tonya Wyatt references an earlier Flow Control magazine article, to open her article, Flowmeter Diagnostics Optimize Production in Process Plants . It: …never drifts or wears. It never needs zeroing. It measures in mass units. It is immune to the effects of changing fluid properties and fluid dynamics, density, viscosity, Reynolds number, speed of sound, swirl and…
  • Flow Blog: Turbine Flow Meters in Hydrocarbon Applications

    Tom Bass Turbine flow meters have historically provided volumetric total flow and with advancements in electronics technology, flow rate measurements. They are commonly used in hydrocarbon liquid measurements where the fluid lubricates the turbine to help the rotor assembly move freely. In a Processing Magazine article, Digital Transformation Strategies for Mechanical Flow Instrumentation , Emerson’s Tom Bass highlights…
