Measurement solution for the most challenging processes

Berthold Technologies radiometric instruments for non-invasive level and density measurement are used in industries worldwide, including the oil refining and the petrochemical industry.

Our measurement solutions, utilizing gamma absorption, assist our customers in achieving highly reliable process control. This ensures safe operations, maximizes efficiency, and ultimately boosts profitability. Berthold is known for cutting-edge technology and high-quality products. We offer an extensive array of industry-standard solutions, while also collaborating closely with our customers and licensors to design customized systems specifically tailored to their unique processes and measuring requirements.

New level measurement solution: LB 476 Level+
LB 476 Level+ adds that little extra to radiometric level measurements, which makes it the perfect system for the most challenging processes e. g. level measurement in delayed coke drums. Compared to the classic radiometric level measurement, LB 476 Level+ enables the storage of two calibration curves and, beyond, the simultaneous monitoring of two product levels based on those calibration curves. Moreover, by using the outstanding implemented compensation functions, level measurement falsifications, e. g. due to gas density fluctuations or due to product build-ups, belong to the past. LB 476 Level+ can be used with both LB 4700 DuoSeries detectors or LB 480 SENSseries detectors.

Relevant features of LB 476 Level+:
- Dual level measurement: especially useful for level measurements of products in processes with two significantly different process stages (e.g. normal and outage stage in the delayed coking process)

- Outstanding compensation functions: prevention of measurement falsification using Gas Property Compensation (GPC) and Product Buildup Compensation (PBC).

- Detector options: LB 4700 DuoSeries detectors (only two wires) or LB 480 SENSseries detectors (316L housing as option and own current output) can be used.

- Single level and total level output in cascaded systems: output of the total level value as well as the individual levels of the respective level detectors.
