A Reliable Natural Gas Supply

VEGAPULS 6X delivers reliable and accurate measurement data despite the poor reflective properties of liquid gas
Natural gas production in the United States has been steadily increasing for almost a decade. This has been made possible by oil and gas companies that extract valuable hydrocarbons trapped deep underground. Once a well is sunk and made ready for production, companies such as Blue Racer Midstream process the unfiltered natural gas flowing from the well into usable products for refineries. VEGA measuring instruments support this process.

Ultrasonic vs Radar Level Technology in the Water Industry

Have you ever wondered why some competitors are pushing radar in the water industry when ultrasonic level has been successful for decades?

Consider this: Very little has changed over the years in the water and waste water processes. Furthermore, it is not like ultrasonic-based instruments have been lacking in performance when used in these processes and that finally radar is here to fill the gap. So, why use a technology that, for all practical purposes, is still in its infancy when comparing its functionality to ultrasonic technology? Although radar has its place in difficult applications (high temperature, presence of vapors and pressure), these environments are not common in the water industry.

New BM26A-8000 Completes Series of Magnetic Level Indicators

With the introduction of BM26A-8000, KROHNE completes the market launch of the new BM26A series of Magnetic Level Indicators (MLI) in 2023. Replacing the previous generation, the devices are designed according to specific industry needs. Initially introduced in 1955, the BM26 series has been one of the longest running designs of level measurement instruments. With over 65 years of experience in manufacturing and application of this device type, KROHNE developed the current generation to be the most versatile and competitive MLI series on the market. While the rugged design has not changed, a wide range of options have been added, and former special designs are now available as standard.
