Endress+Hauser introduce the Liquiphant with stainless steel housing.
Proven in more than three million applications worldwide, the Liquiphant is a market-leading liquid level switch. Now its application possibilities have opened up further with the introduction of the dual compartment stainless steel housing specially designed for the demands of the petrochemical industry.
The new heavy-duty stainless steel housing addresses the need for a more robust device for the rigours of petrochemical applications, offering ATEX Ex d certification on its dual compartment housing. Liquiphant is the ideal replacement for maintenance-intensive float switches as it is simple and cost-effective yet offers real benefits in terms of its self-monitoring function and SIL2 and SIL3 ratings. This gives Liquiphant a big advantage in safety-critical applications as it offers outstanding overspill protection. What is more, Liquiphant’s process connections are now available in a C22 highly resistant nickel-chromium alloy with a 3.1 certificate for all wetted parts.
Able to withstand high temperatures (up to 280°C) and pressures (up to 100 bar), this level switch has been made-to-measure for petrochemical processes. The patented piezo drive offers improved immunity to both foam and plant vibration. Able to be mounted in any position, its small process connections make it ideal for applications where space is at a premium such as offshore rigs and downstream installations. Even better, Liquiphant is maintenance-free and operation is unaffected by flow, turbulence, air bubbles or build-up, making it the perfect choice for high level and low level alarms. Its integral function check means that Liquiphant can be remotely tested without being removed from the process, improving safety procedures and saving valuable time.
Meeting the challenges of tank obstructions interfering with radar
Level Measurement & Control
One of the most challenging applications for non-contacting radar level transmitters is measuring level in tanks with internal obstructions, such as agitators, heating coils, pipes, ladders or baffles. Rosemount non-contacting radar level transmitters from Emerson feature an advanced solution that enables accurate and reliable level measurements in tanks with obstructions.
