Ammonia Places Special Requirements on Materials
The synthetic gases generated in crude oil distillation are used to produce ammonia. Due to ammonia’s strong diffusion, the requirements placed on the sensor materials are especially high.
Level Measurement with the VEGAFLEX 66
Ammonia is usually stored in pressurized vessels. This is where measurement with guided microwave sensors is especially appropriate. Unlike free radiating radar devices, the low emission frequencies of guided microwave sensors are not subject to signal damping. The ceramic seal of the signal interface provides a durable and reliable sensor isolation. That’s why the VEGAFLEX 66 is the ideal solution for these applications.
Level Detection with the VEGASWING 63
Due to the completely metallic process separation, ammonia diffusion is no problem for the VEGASWING 63 when it is implemented for level detection. Independent of the widely varying process conditions such as pressure, temperature and product characteristics, the level is reliably detected and trouble-free process monitoring guaranteed.
