In the metallurgical and petrochemical industries, several critical processes require instrumentation to ensure production safety, improve efficiency and guarantee product quality. The following is a brief description of the specific instrumentation processes used in these two industries:
Metallurgical industry
Blast furnace blast system
Intelligent orifice flowmeter: adopts the principle of differential pressure to measure blast blast volume to ensure the stability and efficiency of blast furnace operation. This flowmeter is suitable for high temperature, high pressure and dusty environment in metallurgical industry, with high measurement accuracy and good stability.
Oxygen supply system
Flow meter: In the steelmaking process, the oxygen flow rate is measured to control the oxygen supply and optimize the steelmaking process. Accurate flow measurement is the basis of controlling steelmaking process and improving product quality.
Cooling water system
Flowmeter: Monitor cooling water flow to ensure effective cooling of equipment and prevent overheating damage. In the metallurgical industry, a stable supply of cooling water is essential for the safe operation of equipment.
Smelting and casting
Temperature sensor, pressure transmitter: Monitor the temperature and pressure in the melting furnace to ensure the stability and safety of the melting process.
Liquid level gauge: During the casting process, the liquid metal level is monitored to control the casting speed and quality.
Petrochemical industry
Refining process
Flowmeters: such as electromagnetic flowmeters, ultrasonic flowmeters, etc., used to measure the transportation and storage of chemical fluids to ensure accurate flow control in the production process.
Pressure transmitters and thermometers: used to control key parameters such as temperature and pressure in the chemical process to ensure the stability and safety of the production process.
Flue gas desulfurization and environmental protection
Level meter: such as radar level meter, magnetic flap level meter, etc., used to measure oil level and solid material level to ensure the normal operation of environmental protection equipment and effective treatment of pollutants.
Tank and pipeline monitoring
Level gauges and flowmeters: Monitor the level and flow in tanks and pipes to prevent leaks and spills.
Pressure sensors: Monitor the pressure of tanks and pipes to ensure that they are operating within a safe range.
Many critical processes in the metallurgical and petrochemical industries require instrumentation to ensure production safety, improve efficiency and ensure product quality. These instruments play an important role in monitoring, control, analysis and alarm, and are indispensable tools for modern industrial production.
