Improving Floating Roof Tank Performance

Jim Cahill

Christoffer Hoffmann Bulk liquid storage terminals are a critical component in the energy industry supply chain between production and distribution. Floating roof tanks are commonly used to avoid having a vapor space or ullage between the liquid level and roof found in fixed-roof tanks. A Storage Terminals magazine article, Staying on the Radar , shared some thoughts from Emerson’s Christoffer Hoffmann on avoiding…

Two-Wire FMCW Radar Level Transmitter Advantages

Jim Cahill

Christoffer Widahl and Jimmie Soderstrom presented The New Normal for Process Radar—The New Two-Wire FMCW [Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave] Radars are Here!, at the 2019 Emerson Exchange conference. Jimmie opened with a question, “Why measure level?” It is to monitor that supplies are sufficient to keep processes running, control processes to run at maximum output and to control safety functions such as overfill…

Overcoming Citrus Processing Level Measurement Challenges

Jim Cahill

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…

Reducing Level Detector Proof Testing Complexity

Jim Cahill

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…

Guided Wave Radar for Tight Boiler Steam Drum Level Control

Jim Cahill

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. In a Power magazine article, Controlling Boiler Level When Operating Conditions Change , Emerson’s Matthew Brummer compares different level…
