  • Level Blog: Accurate, Reliable Measurements for Saturated Steam Measurements

    As summer will soon be winding down here in the Northern Hemisphere, many manufacturers and producers must contend with the effects of falling ambient temperatures on their production processes. For some level measurements, pressure diaphragms, wet legs, and any liquid line can suffer damage when process fluids solidify and expand, potentially causing unplanned unit or plant shutdowns. For example, in the 2021 big freeze…
