Pioneering the future of Process Analysis
PII Podcast
"Sensors are great, but they have their limitations" - that’s where analysers come in! In this episode, Paul Hamilton from Metrohm discusses simple and innovative ways for Process Engineers to perform complex chemical analysis. Metrohm is best known for producing analytical laboratory hardware and software, but Paul explains how the process analysis side of the business brings all of the typical laboratory analysis techniques and integrates them into the process plant, producing lab-quality data in the plant, fully automated. Compared to some other countries, the UK is behind when it comes...

Radial Insert Ball Bearings technology
PII Podcast
For machines in the food industry, you need special solutions. Extreme temperatures, high mechanical loads, short cycle times, round-the-clock operation, and regular cleaning cycles require very robust components. Strict food safety regulations pose as much of a challenge here as efficiency and sustainability. Whether it’s for process automation in food production, for beverage production or the packaging industry, in all cases you need food-compatible rolling bearings, plain bearings, and linear guidance systems as well as adapted lubrication and seal concepts. Even during the planning...

How interface measurement could transform your business
PII Podcast
In this episode of the PII 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...

Cote-Shield Technology
PII Podcast
AMETEK Drexelbrook's "Cote-Shield" technology revolutionises point level detection in tanks and vessels by effectively ignoring conductive coatings on the sensing element, ensuring a reliable, repeatable measurement and maintenance-free operation. This technology overcomes the common issue of false alarms caused by process coating buildup that can cause false alarms potentially interrupting the critical process and costing loss in profits. Cote-Shield addresses this issue by introducing a three-terminal style probe design that incorporates a Cote-Shield element, that ignores process coating...
