Understanding Ammonia Slip: Causes, Impacts, and Mitigation Strategies

1. What is Ammonia Slip? Ammonia slip refers to the phenomenon where ammonia, used as a reducing agent in industrial denitrification processes, escapes into the atmosphere without fully reacting. Denitrification technologies such as Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR) are employed to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions by converting them into nitrogen […]

Understanding the Principles of a Residual Current Device (RCD)

Residual Current Devices (RCDs), commonly referred to as leakage protection devices, are essential components of electrical safety. They belong to the family of circuit breakers, alongside air circuit breakers and isolating switches. In circuit diagrams, RCDs are often denoted by their acronym. Unlike air circuit breakers that provide short-circuit and overload protection, RCDs add a

Basic Knowledge of Instrumentation: Understanding Errors

Types of Errors Reference Error: Definition: Reference error is the ratio of absolute error to the measurement range, expressed as a percentage. Formula: Reference Error (%) = (Absolute Error / Measurement Range) × 100 Absolute Error: Definition: The difference between the measured result and the true value. Formula: Absolute Error = Measured Value – True

Selection of Thermometer Sheath Materials

In chemical plants, the installation of temperature measuring instruments such as thermometers and temperature transmitters often requires careful consideration of the thermometer sheath (TW). Since the sheath comes into direct contact with the medium, the material selection must align with the characteristics of the medium—be it corrosive, flammable, or explosive—to ensure stable operation and meet

Two, three, four-wire instrumentation

Process instruments are devices used in the field of industrial automation to measure and control process variables (such as temperature, pressure, liquid level, flow, etc.). In process control systems, sensors or transmitters communicate with the control system through electrical signals, and this communication method is usually divided into two-wire, three-wire and four-wire systems. These three

Standards for Exempting Instrumentation from Calibration

Introduction In the precise world of measurement, not every instrument requires a rigorous calibration process. Certain equipment can reliably operate without calibration under specific conditions. This article outlines the standards and criteria under which instruments, such as ultrasonic level meters, can forego calibration while maintaining reliable and accurate performance. 1. Purpose of Instrument Usage Calibration
