WIKA designed a multipoint thermocouple array specifically for easy retrofitting into an existing amine contactor column at a Gulf Coast refinery. We customized the length so that there was a measuring junction at specific tray heights, then we threaded the array …
WIKA USA recently had the privilege of partnering with Chevron to custom-build multipoint thermocouple arrays for their refineries’ contactor columns. A chemical specialist from WIKA and a process control engineers from Chevron jointly presented the following …
Bimetal thermometers are tried-and-true instruments for measuring temperature in a wide range of industrial applications, combining low cost and low maintenance with easy installation, use, and calibration. Sometimes a measurement technology is so simple yet …
Amine units are critical to the operations of refineries and chemical plants. If a unit fails due to corrosion, condensation and foaming, or another issue, the entire productivity and safety of the facility is imperiled. Temperature measurement solutions allow …
The function of an amine unit is to remove unwanted sulfur compounds and carbon dioxide from raw natural gas before it is sold and used. Proper temperature control plays a crucial role in how well the amine solution absorbs acid gases, as well as prevent issues that …
