Application Story: Liquid Sulphur measurement in Russia<br />
Ammofos AG at Cherepovets is one of<br />
the leading Russian manufactures of<br />
phosphate fertilisers, and part of the<br />
chemical conglomerate JSC Fosagro AG<br />
The focus of the company is the<br />
production of sulphuric acid. Raw<br />
materials used in production are sulphur<br />
and pyrite.<br />
<strong>OPTIMASS</strong> 7050 T25 mass flowmeters<br />
are used to measure the flow of molten<br />
sulphur <strong>with</strong> a temperature up to 145°C.<br />
Ammofos plant in Cherepovets<br />
Problem: The temperature has to be kept above 130°C to prevent the<br />
sulphur from hardening and crystallising, and other measurement systems<br />
encountered problems.<br />
Solution: The Optimass meter <strong>with</strong> its efficient heating jacket prevents the<br />
product solidifying. The great advantage of the single straight tube meter is<br />
its low pressure drop. The other advantage is that, if the product does<br />
solidify the straight tube is easy to clean out and restart the process.<br />
