Monitoring

Process Measurement & Instrumentation

Every control decision is only as good as the measurement behind it

A level reading that drifts, a flow meter that fouls, a temperature probe in the wrong thermowell, and the loop above it makes the wrong call all day. Getting the right instrument for the medium, the mounting and the zone classification is the difference between a number your operators act on and one they learn to ignore.

The Four Measurements That Run Most Plants

What we measure, the technologies we specify, and the question that decides which one you need.

Level gauge

Level

Tanks, silos, sumps and open channels, continuous level for control, or point level for high and low alarms.

Radar Ultrasonic Hydrostatic Vibrating fork Capacitance
Decides it: Is the medium liquid, slurry or bulk solid, and is there foam, dust or agitation in the vessel?
Flow trend line

Flow

Volumetric and mass flow through process lines, dosing skids and transfer pumps.

Electromagnetic Ultrasonic clamp-on Vortex Mechanical
Decides it: Is the fluid conductive, and can the line be cut into or does it need clamp-on?
Pressure indicator

Pressure & Vacuum

Line pressure, differential pressure across filters, and pump discharge monitoring.

Pressure transmitters Differential pressure Gauges Switches
Decides it: What is the over-pressure event, and does the wetted material suit the process fluid?
Thermometer

Temperature

Process, bearing and ambient temperature, from thermowell assemblies to surface sensors.

RTD (Pt100) Thermocouple Infrared Head transmitters
Decides it: What is the range and response time needed, and does it require a thermowell?
Instrumented process pipework inside a plant

What Sites Get Out of It

The outcomes that matter on site.

Eye representing process visibility

A Number Operators Actually Trust

Instruments matched to the medium and mounting stop the drift that erodes confidence in the loop.

Spanner representing reduced maintenance

Less Time Spent Recalibrating

Non-contact technologies remove the fouling and wear that drive repeat maintenance calls.

Document with a tick

Evidence for Audit and Reporting

Logged, traceable measurement for environmental limits, batch records and compliance.

Compliance shield with tick

Certified Options for Classified Zones

Ex-certified transmitters and barriers keep in-zone measurement legal and documented.

Microsonic ultrasonic sensors measuring product flow on a food packaging line
Case Study · 3 min read

Consistent Pack Weights on a Food Packaging Line

A food processor was losing product to inconsistent fills. Microsonic mic+130/IU/TC ultrasonic sensors mounted above the conveyors measure berry volume in real time, adjusting belt speed and gates so packs fill consistently. Precise measurement to 2 metres, built to survive food-processing washdown, with less waste and less maintenance downtime.
