Which Level Measurement Method is Best for Asphalt Storage Tanks?

Asphalt storage tanks present unique challenges for level measurement due to their high temperatures (130-230°C), high viscosity, tendency to adhere to surfaces, and volatile compounds. Therefore, the key principles for selecting a measurement method are “non-contact, high temperature tolerance, and resistance to interference.” Based on adaptability, stability, and maintenance cost, the guided wave radar level

The Three Key Tests in DCS Systems: FAT, SAT, and FIT

In the implementation of Distributed Control Systems (DCS) projects, three critical tests—Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), Site Acceptance Testing (SAT), and Field Integration Testing (FIT)—play vital roles at different stages of the project. These tests ensure that the DCS system operates smoothly and meets the user’s needs. While each test is interrelated, they each focus on

Don’t Wait for an Explosion to Implement Explosion-Proof Measures

In the powder chemical industry, combustible dust explosions are rare but highly destructive “black swan” events. According to Dust Safety Science, between 2016 and 2020, the United States averaged approximately 31.8 dust explosions per year (excluding dust fires), resulting in numerous injuries and significant economic losses annually. I. A Massive Explosion Triggered by a Small

How to Achieve Stable Control After Adding FIC2 in a System with One Level and Two Flow Rates

In process control systems, buffer tank level control (LIC) is typically considered a “slow-variable” control loop. Usually, a level controller stabilizes the level by cascade controlling the feed flow rate (FIC1). However, when a second feed flow rate controller (FIC2) is added to the system, new challenges arise: How should control authority be distributed between
