The reliable performance of Endress+Hauser products on many Eskom power stations has led to the instrumentation specialist winning an order for the supply of a similar combination of flow, pressure, conductivity, turbidity, level and temperature measurement solutions to Eskom's Lethabo power station, to be deployed in a new reverse osmosis plant.
The order forms part of a R16-million desalination plant - the largest multimembrane plant in South Africa - that will allow Lethabo to operate as a zero liquid effluent discharge facility. The project involves a new control and scada system; profibus DP and PA networked I/O, motor starters and various instruments.
Satisfying the facility's flow measurement requirements, Endress+Hauser's newly released proline 53 flowmeters have been installed. Cerabar PMC731 meters completed the pressure solution, while conductivity is to be measured using Liquisys M (CLM253) transmitters with CLS21 sensors. Turbidity measurement required the use of three Liquisys M transmitters with a CUS31 sensor and, while the level measurement would be carried out with Endress' FMU230 ultrasonic transmitter.
"The above instruments are all profibus compatible, chosen by the contractor and suggested by the end user," says Endress+Hauser sales engineer, Mike Meadon. "Apart from having proven themselves in Eskom, I think the fact that we have over 15 000 instruments installed on Profibus networks in southern Africa played a large role in showing our competence in this field."
