In any combustion process, it is necessary to monitor the inlet flow rates of fuel and air to the burner. While these flow rates provide baseline parameters to set a flame, they do not provide feedback to reveal or alert any potential concerns with the combustion reaction, such as incomplete combustion from imperfect mixing in the burner or safety risks such as fuel leaks or loss of flame. Flue gas analysis offers one approach to monitor the process and provide feedback. It is especially important to consider when firing both hydrocarbon-based and high hydrogen fuels. 

External Cage Level Switch

Liquids stored in tanks or vessels need to be monitored for level in a multitude of industrial, agricultural, and energy applications. An external cage level switch is an appropriate tool for measuring liquid levels for many of these settings. It is important to understand what an external cage level switch is, how it works, the many applications, and how to choose the best one. If you are looking to gain more information about external cage level switches, read this guide.

Ultrasonic Level Switch

Reliable solutions exist for detecting the presence of materials in a vessel or space that reduce moving parts in contact with the material and can alert you to a high or low point critical for safety and other industrial applications. These products are resilient, often require no calibration, and are self-cleaning. Read on for our beginner guide to ultrasonic level switches. These simple explanations are meant to help you choose the best product for your needs. 

There are many industries and applications that require non-contact level measurement. A radar level transmitter is an ideal solution for situations where fluid needs to be measured but not touched by the measuring instrument. When accuracy, safety, and performance standards need to be met, it is important that professionals understand the available tools and make the best selection for their application. 

Does your site have the equipment necessary to keep workers safe and get the job done successfully? Gas detectors are important instruments for detecting toxic or combustible substances before they can pose a risk to the health and safety of workers. There are many different types of gas detectors and monitors, and they each offer different functionalities. It is important to understand what a portable gas detector is, how it works, why it is important, and how to choose one for your facility. 

This guide describes what gas monitors and detectors are, how gas monitors and gas detectors work, the types of detecting and monitoring solutions, and why gas monitoring and detecting systems are important. 

Many major industrial facilities throughout the world rely upon magnetic level indicators (MLI) to effectively, reliably, and safely visualize and control levels in complex process applications. When safety and performance are at stake, it is critical that manufacturers have the right equipment and understand how to optimize the use of tools.

Guided wave radar technology is a method of measuring the level of liquids with radio waves. It is used in continuous measurement systems for various applications, from the chemical industry to oil and gas production, water treatment plants, and more.

Gas detection controllers are used in a wide variety of industrial and commercial applications where fire, smoke, and/or toxic gases can present a potential hazard to property or threat to personnel. Controllers are designed to work with one or more gas detectors that provide permanent and continuous monitoring and generate actions in case of gas detection.
