Suspended Solids and Turbidity Meter Sensor Installation at Essity, Stubbins Mill, Ramsbottom.
Pi recently installed a suspended solids monitor (SoliSense®) and turbidity meter (TurbSense®) in Essity, Stubbins Mill, Ramsbottom.
Essity is a producer of pulp, paper, and cardboard, therefore, the Essity site requires sensors that are robust and can withstand debris such as paper and pulp potentially getting caught on the sensor. Both the suspended solids monitor (SoliSense®), and turbidity meter (TurbSense®) can come fitted with self-cleaning mechanisms which keep the sensor clear and working at its optimum.
Manual maintenance and cleaning of a sensor can be a difficult, laborious task, especially on sites where sensors are difficult to reach, and in applications where there are lots of debris such as paper and pulp or food, as debris can get caught on the sensor, blocking it completely.
Let Pi handle the maintenance of the sensors!
As well as the AutoFlush, many Pi sensors can be equipped with AutoClean; this allows a jet of water or air to be sprayed across the sensor surface periodically to remove debris, biofilm and other fouling. Regular, self- cleaning reduces the need for manual intervention and helps to prevent the sensor surface becoming occluded. It is better to clean the sensor frequently with AutoClean than to perform manual cleaning less often; allowing excessive fouling to build up over time makes cleaning more difficult, and fouled sensors may be reporting inaccurately on the process they have been installed on for some time before being cleaned.
At Pi, we believe in the importance of having high quality sensors with automatic cleaning and minimal maintenance requirements!
Pi also offers service visits to our customers sites to ensure all equipment and sensors are working correctly, and to check if anything needs to be done to help improve them.
