  • Level Blog: Reducing Level Detector Proof Testing Complexity

    Each safety instrumented function (SIF) including its sensor, logic solver and final control element must be periodically tested to make sure it will perform as designed in the event of a safety demand. These “proof tests” help to uncover and failure conditions which may have developed since the last proof test or safety demand. A new whitepaper, Reducing the Complexity of Proof-Testing with New Generation Point Level…

  • Tank Gauging Blog: Radar Level Measurement for Cryogenic Tank Storage

    If you are unfamiliar with cryogenic processes such as those found liquefied natural gas (LNG) plants, then you may be unaware of some of their unique challenges. One big one is overfill prevention and inventory measurement for cryogenic storage tanks. A cryogenic tank is not opened during operation and normally not accessed for maintenance purposes during its entire operating lifespan. A 4:35 YouTube video, Inventory…

  • Temperature Blog: Considerations in Temperature Measurement Selection

    When it comes to measuring temperature, there are a multitude of ways to do this. Do-it-yourselfers might use simple RTD or thermocouple sensors right into a microcontroller and display to provide basic temperature readings for their grills and BBQ pits. Or they could buy a ready-made transmitter and software to send the readings to their smart phones. Todd Olin Neil Larson For industrial process manufacturers and…

  • Flow Blog: Sizing and Specifying Orifice Plate Flowmeters

    An Emerson whitepaper, Fundamentals of Orifice Meter Measurement , shares the history of tried-and-true differential pressure (DP) measurement across an orifice plate (orifice plate flowmeters) to measure flow rate, which dates back to the end of the 1700s. The first recorded use of an orifice device for fluid measurement was in 1797 by Giovanni B. Venturi, an Italian physicist whose work led to the development of the…
  • Level Blog: Guided Wave Radar for Tight Boiler Steam Drum Level Control

    Matthew Brummer Boiler steam drum level control is critical in electrical power generation. Too high a level can mean water aspirating into the steam lines and causing damage to the turbine generator blades downstream. Too low a level can cause the boiler to dry and overheat.
