Achieving Optimal Water-to-Paper&Pulp Balance with Tek-Flux 1400A Flow Meters

In the ever-evolving paper industry, the quest for superior product quality is a constant challenge, particularly when it comes to the incorporation of additives. Among these additives, starch plays a crucial role in reinforcing the strength of recycled cardboard. The Tek-Flux 1400A Electromagnetic Flow Meter emerges as a cost-effective and efficient solution, enhancing the overall performance of this intricate process. Application in Paper Mills Starch is integral to the paper production process, particularly in recycled cardboard manufacturing. It arrives at the mill in powdered form, characterized by varying particle sizes and moisture content, and is subsequently stored in silos. The starch is then mixed with water in a small tank using a variable speed Auger, before being pumped into the piping system for transportation to the cooking system. Maintaining the precise water-to-starch ratio is vital, as it directly impacts the quality of the final product. Challenges in Measuring Additives One of the primary challenges in paper production is the accurate measurement of various liquid additives, which are essential for ensuring the quality of the final product. Paper mills utilize a range of additives, including powdered products diluted in water, dyes, bleaches, and liquids with low conductivity and high viscosity. Accurate measurement of these substances is critical, as any deviation can compromise the quality and structural integrity of the paper products. The Tek-Flux 1400A Solution The Tek-Flux 1400A series of Electromagnetic Flow Meters offer a reliable and economical solution for measuring starch water in paper mills. These flow meters handle the […]

Enhancing Efficiency with Ultrasonic Flow Meters in Chiller Water Systems 

Chiller water systems, a concept dating back to ancient Roman times, remain essential in modern architecture, particularly for medium to large buildings. These systems are designed to transfer heat between the inside and outside of a building, providing efficient cooling by circulating chilled water through air handling units (AHUs). While the initial cost of these systems can be substantial, their energy efficiency and low maintenance costs make them a preferred choice for many commercial buildings.  The Role of Ultrasonic Flow Meters  In any chilled water system, maintaining the correct flow rate is critical for optimal performance. This is where ultrasonic flow meters come into play. These devices measure the flow rate of chilled water, ensuring it is maintained at the desired level. This not only enhances the system’s efficiency but also helps in reducing operational costs by limiting the equipment’s running time.  Case Study: Emirates Palace Hotel  The Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi, a luxurious 5-star hotel operated by Kempinski, faced challenges with their existing flow meters. The previously installed meters were unreliable, leading to inaccurate flow measurements. This uncertainty in performance made it difficult for chiller plant operators to manage the system efficiently.  Challenges in Accurate Measurement  Accurate flow measurement in long-distance pipes was a significant challenge. The old flow meters failed to provide stable readings, sometimes showing zero flow at certain locations. This unreliability necessitated a solution that could offer precise and consistent measurements without extensive modifications to the existing infrastructure.  The Tek-Clamp 1200A Solution  Tek-Clamp 1200A […]
