Levelflex M FMP45 On Feed Water Heaters

The Levelflex M FMP45 on feed water heater prevents overfilling tanks when used in a coal fired power plant.

The customer was using float and sight glasses. With this measuring method, the floats would set an alarm and the sight glass had to be watched. These methods only helped the customer when it was already too late and the tanks would overflow. The customer wanted more of a preventative method.

Endress+Hauser recommended the Levelflex M FMP45.

An instrument is needed to measure the condensate level in the heater so the customer knows when to open the valves in order to maintain condensate level. The customer needs to control the process and monitor levels through a DCS system.
