Hycontrol prevents overdose!
Level measurement experts Hycontrol have announced the launch of the new SureSense⁺ foam control and detection system.
Foam causes issues across a wide range of industries from wastewater treatment to food production. Problems caused by foam include pollution, contamination, product loss, downtime, and clean-up costs. Excess foam can also damage equipment such as pumps, compressors, and filters on applications such as AD digesters in energy from waste. Anti-foam agents are effective in reducing or removing foam but are expensive and hard to dose correctly as foam is a varying process and a constantly changing substance. The traditional solution to this has been to constantly dose anti-foam chemicals in high quantities, whether foam is present or not. This overdosing is not only wasteful but extremely costly.
To overcome this, Hycontrol’s SureSense⁺ system utilises patented IMA (Intelligent Multi-Action) technology to monitor and reactively control foam levels in a process. This purpose-designed system is reliable, accurate and is not adversely affected by product build-up or contamination on the probe.
SureSense⁺ can have up to three foam probes connected to one controller with independent dosing control – reducing costs and increasing flexibility. Liquid detection capability also provides greater process control, and a proportional dosing algorithm further reduces unnecessary anti-foam usage to cut expensive waste to the absolute minimum. Probes can have up to three sensor points, across a length of up to 3 metres. Additional features include additional relay outputs and a clear LCD interface which provides a simple menu-driven set-up.
Put simply, the Hycontrol SureSense⁺ is the most complete foam control offering yet.
Hycontrol’s Managing Director, Nigel Allen, welcomed the introduction of the new SureSense⁺ , saying: “Foam is a problematic issue for a great many businesses, from brewing, to wastewater, to pharmaceuticals. Historically the only way to deal with it in most cases has been for operators to guess how much anti-foam is required, leading to chronic overdosing – at great expense. With the launch of the SureSense⁺ , we offer a practical, cost-saving solution to a range of control issues, far in advance of anything previously available. SureSense⁺ enables users to take control of dosing and manage their process far more efficiently.”

ACO unveils latest addition to StormBrixx Stormwater
management system ACO has announced a new addition to its popular StormBrixx stormwater attenuation and infiltration range that broadens the scope of installation applications in the construction market.
Designed for surface water infiltration and storage, the versatility of the StormBrixx system means it can be used across all construction environments as a standalone solution, or as part of an integrated sustainable urban drainage (SuDS) scheme.
The latest addition – ACO StormBrixx SD (Standard Duty) range – represents a general-purpose extension to the high-capacity patented plastic geocellular system, comprising of a 914mm high injection-moulded stackable crate design suitable for use in a wide range of construction applications.
While the StormBrixx HD (Heavy Duty) offers the ideal solution for Local Authority projects due to the option for integrated man access units, which facilitates the rigorous maintenance requirements mandated by SuDS approval boards and water companies; the new SD is the ideal cost-effective storage and infiltration solution for non-government funded work.
StormBrixx SD has a depth to invert of 4.5m and is available with integrated access plates to allow easy maintenance. The range is perfect for a variety of private sector integrated drainage systems with less restrictive specifications, including schools, housebuilding projects, supermarkets and carparks.
