Level Measurement Solutions for Accumulator / Reflux Drums
Obtain real-time monitoring and control, maintain optimal performance and ensure safety in distillation processes
Monitoring Reflux Drums with Level Measurement
Level measurement technology is essential for reflux drum applications in distillation processes. Reflux is the portion of the overhead liquid product returned to the upper part of the distillation column, providing cooling and condensation for upflowing vapors, which enhances separation efficiency. Guided Wave Radar technology provides accurate level measurements, ensuring the proper amount of liquid is returned, preventing issues like poor separation or flooding. Level measurement chambers like the Rosemount 9935 help when the measurement needs to be isolated and Level Switches help to monitor the presence of media build-up.
