Customer challenge

To ensure safe and efficient chemical reaction control, operators depend on critical insights and data from the process as well as state-of-the-art instruments that provide additional safety barriers against extreme process conditions. Iplom thus set the following targets:

  • Optimize process monitoring and control, reduce hotspots

  • Gain meaningful data for future improvements

  • Increase catalyst life

  • Increase product quality

  • Further increase plant safety

Our solution

Our MultiSens Flex multipoint thermometer offered a robust, single-nozzle, multi-sensor solution by monitoring the temperature profile of the catalyst bed in a 3D layout. The device's on-board diagnostic chamber adds a vital process containment layer. The multipoint assembly was installed on the level 4 catalyst bed of the diesel oil reactor to monitor the temperature at two different heights. It now enables Iplom to establish a precise temperature profile.
