Level Measurement of Stored Salts in Polymer Production
Gain robust and accurate level measurement of salts required for polymer production.
Simplified Inventory Management with Level Measurement in Salt Silos for Plastics Production
Salt is a key raw material used in polymer production. It is mixed with water, and via electrolysis the chloride atom is separated and used in the production of the vinyl chloride monomer. The salt can be stored in silos or large piles. It can be very abrasive and corrosive.
As a key component, an adequate supply must always be available. If stored in large piles, it can be difficult to know the inventory, making a robust level measurement necessary.

Product Solutions
The Rosemount 1208 Series provides accurate and reliable level measurement and open channel flow calculations. The radar level transmitter has been designed to solve challenges in water and wastewater-, utilities- and basic chemical applications. The Rosemount 1208 uses continuous non-contacting radar technology in a compact PVDF housing with drinking water and food grade approvals. Its encapsulated design withstands outdoor conditions, is fully submersible and is suitable for hazardous location installations. The Rosemount 1208 Series communicates via Bluetooth® wireless technology, 4-20 mA HART™ or IO-link and has a broad range of mounting accessories, making it easily integrate into both new as well as existing systems.
- With Smart Echo Supervision™ technology, Rosemount Non-Contacting Radars automatically track all echoes, including those from obstructions in the vessel, and distinguish them from the real product surface echo. This ensures the true product level is reliably and accurately reported.
- Compact and robust design to withstand harsh environments, designed for outdoor conditions, submersion and hazardous location installations
- Simple configuration over your tablet/mobile device via Bluetooth® wireless technology
The Rosemount 3408 Non-Contacting Radar Level Transmitter is a versatile FMCW radar, which features Smart Echo Supervision™ technology, and is suitable for level measurement and overfill prevention in many industries, including chemical. Smart features save time and maximize efficiency for trouble-free operations, simplifying commissioning, operation and testing. Smart diagnostics help you proactively plan maintenance and optional Bluetooth® connectivity allows convenient configuration and maintenance. Manual or automatic verification at scheduled intervals can be conducted from the control room at any time without process interruptions. Perform proof-testing remotely and in-situ with onboard functionality. NAMUR type tested and third party certified to IEC61508 for use in safety critical applications.
- With Smart Echo Supervision™ technology, Rosemount Non-Contacting Radars automatically track all echoes, including those from obstructions in the vessel, and distinguish them from the real product surface echo. This ensures the true product level is reliably and accurately reported.
- Lens antenna available for very small process fittings (3/4") and with optional bracket mount
- All PTFE wetted parts allow for use in harsh conditions, such as corrosive medias
The Rosemount 2555 Solids Level Switch is robust and suitable for all solids bulk media in all types of vessels. It can be used for full, demand or empty detection and is designed for low dielectric medias and extreme conditions such as high temperatures, high mechanical stress and high tensile forces.
- Suitable for most bulk materials in various applications even with high temperature and pressure
- "Active Shield Technology" protects against media build up or caking to ensure complete reliability
- Measurement of medias with dielectric constant down to 1.5
