How does the radiometric

measuring principle work?

The radiometric measuring principle

Safe & reliable

The detector calculates the filling

level on the basis of the incoming

radiation

How the detector works

Some successful applications

Continuous Level Measurement for

Level measurement

Re-zeroing function

Continuous Level Measurement fin

the FCC vessel ( 4th Stage )

Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit

A fourth stage is necessary to

reduce the catalyst fines. This to

reduce the pollution when the

fines comes to the stack .

The most of refineries have to

revamp their FCCU to get more

efficient filtration technology
