It enables measurement of a media with very low solids contents in difficult applications like centrifuge centrate. The technology also offers significant savings per centrifuge in polymer and centrifuge usage. Until now, there has not been any online measurement technology available that would enable reliable measurement of a media with very low solids contents in this measurement position.
The Metso Low Solids Measurement system is based on LED and laser technology. It dearates, filters, and measures the process solids along with possessing self-cleaning capabilities to keep the measurement optics clean for continued accurate measurement.

CASE STUDY: Water Utilities Can Better Manage Flow Fluctuations with Single Rolling Diaphragm Valves
Without proper pressure management, high-pressure incidents can occur when pumps are turning on or off or when a valve suddenly closes, sending water hammer back through a piping system. Having the right valves to manage large fluctuations in water flow is one way that utilities can balance erratic flows and stay ahead of evolving community demands.
