Ensuring safety by modernizing 
ageing technology

No one can deny the importance of safety in power plants. These often hazardous environments house plenty of potential dangers – putting people and business at risk. But even though plant operators uphold safety as a value, incidents continue to happen. In the case of damage or loss of production, costs arise. Any preventive measure is more cost-effective than forced outage. Therefore, the replacement of mechanical meters with more reliable metering systems is crucial to ensure maximum safety.


To safely improve the plant’s process – be it a thermal steam-electric, hydroelectric, Internal Combustion Engine or cogeneration plant – Endress+Hauser works with you to provide technology that best replace your existing mechanical meters.

Application example: slurry density measurement in flue gas desulfurization (FGD)

Lime slurry density measurement at the injection site is important for the efficiency of the flue gas cleaning process. Once a certain concentration is achieved, the suspension will be grounded off. The existing density measurement provided by the radiometric Gammapilot can now be replaced with a new technology Promass Coriolis, which simultaneously measures density, temperature and mass flow, without radiation source to have a nuclear free instrument.
