In petrochemical refineries, a multitude of measuring instruments monitor material transport and conversion. Flow measurement of the Overflash volume, an important indicator for well adjusted and efficient distillation column operation, presents a special challenge. In BP’s Emsland Oil Refinery, Lingen, Germany, the amount of HVGO Overflash volume is measured non-intrusively by the Ultrasonic clamp-on flow meter FLUXUS in conjunction with the high temperature WaveInjector mounting fixture.
