UWT solution in maceration process Guided wave radar technology for continuous level measurement in maceration processes For the cellulose production of a wood manufacturing plant in South America, the guided wave radar was implemented in several water tank constructions within the maceration processes. The modern, high-quality TDR technology ensures a continuous production process of the plant. Uninfluenced by changing process conditions, TDR sensors detect the level reliably and precisely and thus offer optimum support for a smooth process flow. +/-2 mm measuring accuracy & steam compensation A wood manufacturer who has been operating in the forestry, cellulose and paper industry for 100 years was looking for an innovative and durable solution to modernize the level measurement within his plant processes as part of a stronger strategic focus on sustainability. The company is active in Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Mexico, Ecuador and Uruguay and is considered the fifth largest pulp and…
