Scope

RPI & Plastic Assets (SR/AP, MAF, Plastics & NGLE)

These instruments measure the pressure of fluids or gases in pipes, tanks, and vessels. They are used to ensure that the process is operating within safe pressure limits.

Temperature transmitters gauges, Thermowells,

Thermocouples, Thermocouple Assemblies.

These instruments measure the temperature of fluids or gases in various process equipment, such as heat exchangers, reactors, and distillation columns.

They help to ensure that the process operates within the desired temperature range.

Flow meters

These instruments measure the flow rate of liquids and gases in pipes and vessels. They are used to monitor the amount of material being transferred between different process stages.

Level transmitters

These instruments measure the level of liquids and solids in tanks and vessels. They are used to ensure that tanks are not overfilled or emptied too quickly, which could result in safety hazards or process disruptions.

These instruments measure the chemical composition of process streams. They are used to monitor the quality of products and ensure that the process is operating within the required specifications

These are critical components that control the flow of fluids in process equipment. They are used to adjust the flow rate, pressure, and temperature of the process stream to maintain optimal process conditions.

Safety relief valves

These are critical components that protect equipment and personnel from overpressure conditions. They are designed to open automatically when the pressure exceeds a predetermined level, releasing excess pressure and preventing equipment damage or personnel injury.

Distributed Control System (DCS)

This refers to a system used to control complex processes in industries such as manufacturing, oil and gas, power generation, and more. DCS systems consist of multiple interconnected control elements that work together to monitor and manage various aspects of a process.
