Safety in power plants cannot be left to chance. These often hazardous environments house plenty of potential dangers – putting people and business at risk. But despite plant operators upholding safety as a key value, incidents continue – risking damage, loss of production, and additional costs.
Replacing aging mechanical meters with more reliable metering systems is a key way to ensure maximum reliability, availability, and safety. Preventive measures will always be more cost-effective than a forced outage.
To improve your plant’s processes Endress+Hauser works with you to provide the best replacement technology for your existing mechanical meters – technology that requires less maintenance and carries less risk of failures.

Level measurement in the condenser hot well
The use of displacers and differential pressure (DP) transmitters at the condenser hot well is a challenge. One is affected by vibration due to the small mechanical movement of the torque tube, while the other faces limitations in a vacuum service vessel.
A viable alternative to replace torque tubes, remote seals or DP transmitters, and wet leg DP level systems is the guided wave radar. This is maintenance-free even under extreme process conditions and shows no effect of vacuum.

Benefits:
- Greater accuracy, better signal stability, and significantly reduced maintenance costs.
- Highest degree of safety because personnel are no longer required to engage in risky operations.
Digital sensors for water chemistry analysis in Steam power plants
Moisture corrodes analog devices quickly. But this issue can be relegated to the past with Memosens non-contact digital sensors that revolutionize liquid analysis. Easy to use, they resist corrosion and humidity, can be operated underwater and facilitate predictive maintenance. Designed for a long operating life, they offer you the best value for money. Used together with modular SWAS panels, Memosens sensors enable unsurpassed reliable and safe monitoring of water and steam circuits.
All hydroelectric power stations face environmental and technical challenges. Regardless of where the plant is geographically located, the room housing the machine has to deal with high relative humidity, moisture, and water that can be acidic and may contain bacteria, sand and/ or debris. Our network of engineering, sales and service staff has profound know-how on power production under every conceivable condition. This knowledge serves to deliver the appropriate answer to your environment.
- Digital sensors as successors to analog sensors.
- Improved production efficiency, output and safety.
- Memosens: simple, waterproof, and cost-efficient – increased process safety, and system downtime reduced to a minimum
