In the oil
producing industry, pressure measuring devices are exposed to extreme
environmental conditions like seawater, crude oil or different gases.
Baumer's MPG and MPE series with polypropylene or phenolic cases and
sensing elements made of stainless steel 316L are suitable for applications
with crude oil and seawater. However, some processes produce hydrogen
sulphide, an extremely corrosive gas corroding even stainless steel
sensors. Therefore, the sensors of the ranges MPJ and MPF are equipped
with a sensing element made of Monel, according to the NACE standard
requirements for applications in the oil industry.
Due to the
usually very high pressure during oil production and processing, the
devices provide a solid front and a blow-out back offering a maximum
of security. The watertight instruments can be filled with dampening
liquid. A special compensation diaphragm guarantees constant high
accuracy even with filled devices.
In comparison to oil fields, the environment is less polluted in refineries.
Mounted in a stainless steel case and available with sensing elements
made of stainless steel 316L or Monel, the series MEX5 and MEP5 are
suitable pressure gauges for these areas.
For processes
like alkylation, where temperatures of over 400°C can be reached,
a capillary tube can be mounted in front of the pressure gauge to
reduce the temperature of the measuring device.
For applications with heavy oil or tar, the pressure gauges are installed
on chemical seals adhering to the compatibility of the diaphragm material
with the fluid. Baumer offers a wide range of materials like Monel,
stainless steel or tantalum for these fields of use.
