How can you add value to an established #technology? OPTIBAR DP 7060 C offers unmatched linearity even at high static pressures with low differential pressures as they occur in power generation applications. Each single tramsmitter is 3 D calibrated over its entire static #pressure and #temperature range and sets new standards in this category. https://bit.ly/37M4mr5 #processautomation #powergeneration #boiler #pressuretransmitter #powerplants #processcontrol #powerindustry #powergeneration #energyefficiency #energymanagement #energyindustry #powerplant #powerdistribution #energytransition #renewableenergy #newenergy

The ALTOSONIC V12 is a 12-chord ultrasonic custody transfer (CT) flowmeter for natural gas. It has been designed to offer the best possible measurement accuracy, not only during calibration under ideal conditions but also during less ideal conditions in the field. As a result, ALTOSONIC V12 is the first ultrasonic flowmeter that was certified to OIML R137 class 0.5 by NMi. #powergeneration #energyefficiency #energymanagement #energyindustry #powerplant #powerindustry #powerdistribution #energytransition #renewableenergy #newenergy #custodytransfer

In hydropower and pumped storage plants, level must not only be measured in the river or in the reservoirs. The reliable and accurate measurement is also necessary in the surge tanks, valve chambers, pump-pits and many other locations. In the early days Radar technology has been expensive and was complicated to be commissioned. So engineers chose mechanical meters with floats, bubbling dip tubes or other technologies for this task. KROHNE as a pioneer in Radar level measurement has pushed forward the development of the FMCW technology. With the OPTIWAVE series today KROHNE offers affordable, accurate and safe radar level measurement technology for hydropower and pumped-storage plants. OPTIWAVE level meters are contact and maintenance free, available up to 80 GHz and with SIL approval for safety related applications. The pictures show our 24 GHz OPTIWAVE at the inlet of a hydropower plant.   #maintenancefree #levelmeasurement #radar #fmcw #hydropower #pumpedstorage #safety #reliability #economy #renewableenergy https://lnkd.in/eH274uC8

Fly ash is produced during the combustion of biomass, waste or coal. The fly ash is separated from the flue gas via electrostatic precipitators or baghouse filters and collects in the hoppers below the filters. Depending on the quality or other properties, the ash is transported to a fly ash silo via a pneumatic transport line. The filling and management of the various silos is monitored and controlled via continuous level measurements. https://bit.ly/4cvqEZL #powergeneration #powergeneration #energyefficiency #energymanagement #energyindustry #powerplant #powerindustry #powerdistribution #energytransition #renewableenergy #ash #levelmeasurement

#Geothermal reinjection is an important aspect for the sustainable and environmentally friendly operation of the geothermal system. Once #energy has been extracted, the produced water is taken out of the binary cycle and gets discharged back into the geothermal field by way of injection wells. To this end, the hot condensate of energy-depleted water is stored in a pressurized and insulated tank. If the condensate tank is full, the condensate will accumulate in the system and the safety valves at the back of the tank open to discharge condensate into the atmosphere as steam. This can significantly reduce the amount of water pumped back into the geothermal field which is undesirable for the underground reservoirs and can have an impact on the geothermal resource management of the plant. If the safety valves stay closed, however, it may cause serious mechanical blockages in the system. Therefore, the tank level must be continuously monitored. #powergeneration #energyefficiency #energymanagement #energyindustry #powerplant #powerindustry #powerdistribution #processinstrumentation

Combined cycle power plants use a combination of a Gas Turbine Generator with an exhaust gas Heat Recovery Steam Generator and a Steam Turbine Generator for the production of power. If the steam from the Heat Recovery Steam Generator is used for process or space heating, the plant is operating as a combined heat and power plant. Today, when gas plants are cyclically operated because of the large feed of renewable energy to the grid, a controlled operation limiting the boiler stress is extremely important in order to maintain availability and preserve boiler lifetime. Without accurate measurements and confidence in these measurements, routine start-up and cycling operation with performance improvement is difficult. https://bit.ly/3Xc5HPj #powergeneration #powergeneration #energyefficiency #energymanagement #energyindustry #powerplant #powerindustry #powerdistribution #energytransition #renewableenergy #ccpp
