As the suite would be installed within an existing area of the facility, the flowmeter had to contribute to a compact overall footprint. Handling various media, including solvents and acids as well as low conductivity liquids, the device also had to enable a clean in place (CIP) process. Veranova turned to Bürkert and its surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology to fulfil its requirements.

Process automation has delivered huge benefits for manufacturers in many industries. In everyday use, plant operators are far from being made redundant, they still need to make regular inspections of the process, among other things, looking for leaks and making sure the control valves remain in good operation condition. These activities are made easier by local diagnostics indicators, which are used on valves and local control distributions.
