What role do instruments and meters play in Petrochemistry industry?

Petrochemistry industry, referred to as petrochemical industry, is one of the key pillar industries in China. It mainly processes and sells crude oil and natural gas, such as diesel, gasoline, kerosene, paraffin, asphalt, plastics, rubber, chemicals, etc.

In the Petrochemistry industry, the role of material level instrument in the measurement of oil level is irreplaceable and has a pivotal position. It is a widely used level measuring instrument. Of course, in addition to level instruments, the types of instruments used in the Petrochemistry industry also include flow instruments, analytical instruments, etc. This paper briefly introduces the types of instruments often used in the Petrochemistry industry:

• Flow meter

Common flow instruments include electromagnetic flow meters, ultrasonic flow meters, vortex flow meters, turbine flow meters, float flow meters, Coriolis mass flow meters, thermal (gas) mass flow meters, and so on. Flow meters are mainly used in energy metering, environmental protection engineering, transportation, marine meteorology, Rivers and Lakes detection and other fields. The measurement of oil is carried out in oil refineries. The characteristic of finished oil is that it is very easy to evaporate, and when it evaporates, it is accompanied by the generation of smoke and smoke. Therefore, it is crucial to grasp the amount of oil transported at the metering station of the conveying pipeline. The same is true for natural gas processing. It can be said that flow meters play an important role in Petrochemistry industry.

• Analytical instruments

Analytical instruments are high-tech products that integrate optics, mechatronics, computers, and analytical technology. They have a wide measurement range, strong anti-interference ability, complete functions, easy operation, and reliable analytical results.

• Level instrument

Level instruments are industrial automation instruments that measure the high and low positions of liquid and solid material levels. Since the oil bodies processed and produced in the Petrochemistry industry are easy to RS and BZ, there are high requirements for the high temperature and explosion-proof of the level instrument, such as the instrument sealing degree must reach IP66 or IP67, and the instrument explosion-proof must pass GJ certification. For the Petrochemistry industry, radar level gauge, magnetic flap Level sensor and other instruments are commonly used.

Kaidi magnetic Level sensor is suitable for various working conditions. It has passed the national explosion-proof and intrinsically safe double explosion-proof certification, and can be equipped with steam jacket, heat insulation, frost prevention, anti-corrosion, explosion-proof and other additional devices. Many partners have been highly praised by users since installation.
