Level Measurement for Lube Oil Feed Tanks for Pumps, Turbines and Compressors
Ensuring Reliable and Efficient Operation of Rotating Equipment in Refineries
Lubrication for Rotating Equipment
Refineries often face the challenge of large rotating equipment failures, which can lead to costly downtime or slowdowns that may last several months. Lubrication from lube oil tanks is essential for minimizing friction between moving parts, ensuring proper operation, and preventing equipment failures while lowering maintenance costs. Our level measurement devices are crucial in ensuring that an adequate supply of lube oil is always available, as per the recommendations of API Standard 682.
