How interface measurement could transform your business

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

In this Podcast we delve into the world of interface level measurement, concentrating on those difficult multiphase applications with dynamic emulsion layers.  The key to optimising performance in these situations is solving the emulsion factor, a hurdle that has long stood in the way of accurate and economical level detection.

Traditionally, no single technology has been able to economically measure the total hydrocarbon level, the top of the emulsion (where water mixes into oil), and the bottom of the emulsion layer, (where oil mixes into water). This multiphase scenario has challenged many traditional technologies, each of which faces its own limitations.

Despite the considerable efforts from instrumentation manufacturers, a truly cost-effective solution has been elusive… Until now.

Tune is as we explore how this TDR-based technology is changing the game.  Learn the science behind it, and what it means for the future of industries reliant on precise level measurement.

To unpack all of that and give us his expert insights, we’re delighted to be joined by Bob Botwinski  – a Senior Global Product Manager for AMETEK LMS.

Bob Botwinski is a Senior Global Product Manager for AMETEK LMS. With over 35 years of experience working with various level measurement technologies, he is responsible for their Radar and Guided Wave Radar (GWR) products.  Bob has a BSEE from the University of Illinois at Chicago

Topics include:

  • – Common challenges encountered when measuring the interface between different liquids
  • – What role guided wave radar (GWR) technology is playing in the future of interface measurement
  • – What are the basic principles behind how GWR operates for interface measurement
  • – What the key advantages are of using GWR compared to other technologies such as point level switches or displacers
  • – The limitations or specific application scenarios where GWR might not be the ideal choice
  • – The working principle of TDR Multiphase Detectors and how they differentiate between different liquid phases
