The highly accurate measurement of various products with specific characteristics, often under harsh conditions, is an enormous challenge for process instrumentation – while meeting the requirements of safety-related approvals.
As a measurement technique, guided wave radar is established: the equipment is robust, the technology is mature, and the primary application niches have emerged. The problem - until now - was that the instrumentation was notoriously difficult to install.
Creating a new hygienic production facility that includes ATEX zone 1 areas is a complex task, especially when the facility will need over 1,400 control valves.
