Pressure measurement


Pressure sensors of type VEGABAR 82 monitor the concentration of tartaric acid, an important component of grappa.


Installation and start-up went completely


without a hitch – Bonollo technicians even carried out setup and commissioning themselves. The company really appreciates that the sensors are easy to work with. This is due to the plics concept, which employs the same user interface on all instruments. It is already well known in the distillery and has proven its worth. Bonollo has already been using VEGA radar level sensors in a wide variety of applications for over 15 years. The VEGAPULS 61 and 64 radar level transmitters are as integral to their instrument portfolio as the VEGAPULS 69, which was installed four years ago. The latter device is used to measure the levels of pomace pulp and calcium carbonate powder. Today, level measurement with VEGABAR


82 at Bonollo is stable and reliable. In the tartaric acid production process, the electronic differential pressure measurement functioned perfectly right from the start, immediately after installation, without any additional calibration. It soon became clear that electronic differential pressure measurement with VEGABAR 82 is the ideal solution for this application. Because steam and vacuum conditions have no effect on the measurement system, the level, quality and the concentration of tartaric acid are always reliably controlled.
