Selection of the level gauge for the saponification tower bottom liquid

2017-08-27View Original

Thread Content

I’m seeking advice from experts: for those involved in the propylene oxide industry, what is a good choice for the liquid level measurement at the bottom of the saponification reactor? Currently, double-flange fittings are being used, but since it’s a vacuum reactor, the pressure sampling points are affected by crystallization, which leads to inaccurate measurements or even blockages. Cleaning these areas can also disrupt the vacuum in the reactor, affecting production

It is a tower; only the liquid level at the bottom of the tower is measured, with trays in the upper part

Is heat tracing installed at the root of the double-flange pressure tap?

Those who are interested please send your detailed operating conditions (temperature, pressure, density, measurement range, installation port specifications, etc.) to yhkj_zym@sina.com. I will send you our factory’s level measurement solutions; the required equipment and materials can be purchased or fabricated on your own, and the measurement results are excellent.

A double flange will do; an insert type can be used, with the insert part coated in PFA to provide vacuum protection, which should solve the problem!
