Special challenges
High temperature, steam, condensate
Application
Throughout the different process units, there are storage vessels that collect clean, reusable condensate. This condensate accumulates from the steam system that is used to heat the various hydrocarbon processes. The condensate tanks routinely have extremely high process temperatures, so a level measurement and point level detection are necessary that can withstand this environment.
