Application Overview
In a crude oil distillation unit, distillation columns contain application-dependent tray types to segregate hydrocarbons into separate streams requiring continuous temperature, pressure and level monitoring.
The Delta Controls Benefit
- Simple installation and setting adjustments available on onboard menus or HART® controller
- Innovative ceramic probe design provides long-term reliability in high temperature applications
- Optional relays on certain models streamline automation
