Analytical Instrumentation
higher customer satisfaction, and maintained or increased profit margins can all be obtained by adopting an enterprise integration approach. By implementing a coherent strategy that can integrate data from LIMS, CDS (chromatography data systems), ERP, MES, ELN (electronic laboratory notebooks) and other sources across the enterprise, both the business and customers benefit.
For companies working in the petrochemical industry the need for integration between production and quality has never been greater. In the chemical and petrochemical industries particularly, increasing demands on production coupled with stringent quality requirements means that it is no longer acceptable to maintain islands of information in areas that impact so heavily on each other. Between the production plant and the laboratory that is analysing data, there is a need for regular exchange of information about product quality and analysis values.
In order to leverage the full benefits of ERP, all
aspects of the business, including the laboratory, need to be able to supply and receive data that drives decision making within different business functions, from logistics, through to manufacturing, to sales and marketing activities.
Petrochemical companies are working in an increasingly stringent environment. They are under increasing financial pressure to conduct projects with minimum cost, to deliver professionally, on-time and within budget. Partnering with companies who already have many years of integration project expertise, such as Thermo Scientific, ensures that the goals and benefits are achieved.
Conclusion
Efficient integration and appropriate interfacing, creating seamless IT communication, is essential for achieving streamlined data management and successful business management. LIMS standardisation
is the solution required in today’s high throughput petrochemical laboratories. It is imperative for petrochemical companies to extract greater leverage and utilisation from their existing enterprise data systems and LIMS investments to enable them to respond with more certainty and more accuracy to the many challenges facing them today. The availability of consistent and up to date information enables the continuous improvement of production processes and quality control of the end products according to customer specifications.,
Petrochemical organisations should consider their overall systems, how each system is or can be integrated with the overall systems structure, and its benefit to the organisation. Careful consideration should be placed in the investment in IT and management systems that sustain potential future demands of the company and have the capacity to accommodate IT additions and alternative systems, creating as little disruption to the information management as possible.

New Variable Speed Controller Provides Ideal Control Interface for Variable Speed Pumps
US manufacturer Fluid Metering Inc., (FMI) C100A features both manual speed adjustment using a front panel mounted rotary dial, as well as electronic speed control via a 4-20mA signal from an external source (sensor, flow meter, analyser, process controller.. etc).
The C100A features include IR compensation, current limiting
circuit, minimum and maximum speed adjustment, which are all factory preset to best meet specific application parameters. It also incorporates transient voltage protection and an AC fuse.
The C100A is ideal for controlling FMI’s patented Chloritrol® Valveless Hypochlorite Injection
System and FMI’s CTS Chemical Treatment System, both of which provide maintenance-free fluid control in the water and wastewater treatment industries. It is especially well suited for these applications which are typically 24/7/365 operations in remote locations. The C100A will retain settings and resume operation following a power interruption or failure without the need for manual restart by an operator.
This versatile unit is also an economical control for FMI’s “QV” and “RHV” Series variable speed process and laboratory pumps. The electronics are housed in a space-saving NEMA 4/12 enclosure suitable for wall mounting.

Vapour Pressure Measurement of Gasoline, Crude Oil and LPG
Eralytics (Austria), proudly presents the Eravap, the world-wide first analyser for the fully automated vapour pressure measurement of gasoline, crude oil and LPG with a single portable instrument. Additionally, the vapour liquid ratio temperature of gasoline (ASTM D5188) and the vapor pressure of gasoline (ASTM D5191) can be measured fully automatically with Eravap’s so called ‘Speed Test’. Both measurements are started with a push-of-a- button and both results are displayed and stored under the same sample ID.
Eravap’s innovative and maintenance free measuring principle in combination with the built-in measuring cell shaker guarantee extremely fast and still highly precise VP measurements in full compliance to all the latest ASTM vapour pressure standards like ASTM D6377, D6378 & D6897.
A built-in industry PC with Ethernet and USB
interfaces allows for advanced data management and direct LIMS connectivity. The intuitive menu structure on the large, industry proven color touch screen ensures easiest operation and even allows for statistical quality assurance according to ASTM D6299 with graphical control charting of up to 8 different QC- sample profiles directly on the Eravap.
