Overview
The chemical industry encompasses a vast range of processes handling aggressive, corrosive, and potentially hazardous media under stringent safety requirements. From batch and continuous processing to storage and logistics, reliable level and pressure measurement is essential for maintaining safe operations and consistent product quality. Explosion protection, chemical resistance, and long-term measurement stability are non-negotiable requirements in this sector. Modern chemical plants demand intelligent instrumentation that integrates into digital process control systems, enabling predictive maintenance and real-time process optimization across diverse applications involving acids, bases, solvents, and reactive intermediates.

Ammonia separator
Chemical Industry
In the ammonia separator, the reaction gas mixture (ammonia, hydrogen, nitrogen, traces of methane) is cooled to the boiling point of ammonia (-33 °C). This condenses the ammonia gas. A bypass tube is...
Ammonia tank
Chemical Industry
The diffusion behaviour of ammonia is extreme, which means it can eventually pass through any conventional process fitting or elastomer seal. To avoid any long term leaks and unwanted outages, gas-tig...
Bulk storage tanks
Chemical Industry
Dependable storage is not only the basis for reliable production and supply, it also protects against raw material shortages and price volatility. In addition to regulations on the use of overfill pro...
Chlorine storage tank
Chemical Industry
Chlorine production and storage places high demands on the chemical and the diffusion resistance of the materials in the production equipment. Extensive process knowledge and experience is required wh...
Column trays
Chemical Industry
Accurate level control of the distillation unit ensures product quality of the hydrocarbon at the different cuts, but this is made difficult due to hot liquids flashing, buildup and high temperature....
Coupling vessel
Chemical Industry
The main reaction in colour pigment production takes place in the ‘coupling’ vessel. So named as a type of coupling reaction occurs here to form a synthetic ‘azo dye’, which is then converted into dif...
Diazotization vessel
Chemical Industry
In the diazotization process, the individual raw materials for colour pigment production are prepared so that they will react to become diazonium compounds ready for the subsequent ‘coupling’ vessel w...
Discharge chute of the belt dryer
Chemical Industry
The final, still wet pigment cake is heated on a belt dryer. At the end of the belt dryer, the dried coarse pigment powder is discharged into a silo ready for final milling and grinding into a fine po...
Dissolving tank
Chemical Industry
The precursors for the manufacture of colour pigments are dissolved in the dissolving tank. These precursors are mainly Naphtha based, and, depending on the formulation, water and sodium hydroxide sol...
