Principle of measurement of continuous conductivity measurement
Continuous conductivity measurement is carried out by inserting special sensors or probes into the liquid flow. The sensors continuously measure the electrical resistance of the liquid as it flows through the pipe. Based on the measured values, additives can be added according to the principle "as much as necessary - as little as possible".
The measured resistance is then converted into conductivity. This enables continuous monitoring of conductivity throughout the process, which is important in many industrial applications and production processes.
How it works in a nutshell:
- Flow of paraffin through the pipework
- Measurement of conductivity with a measuring device in the pipeline
- Comparison of the measured value with the target value; possible control of the additive supply
- Injection of the required quantity of additives
The main difference between continuous conductivity measurement and mobile conductivity measurement lies in the way the measurements are carried out and the context in which they are used. With mobile conductivity measurement, the conductivity is measured at longer intervals using individual laboratory samples or measuring devices. The dosage of the necessary additives is then often only estimated. Mobile conductivity measurement makes it possible to carry out conductivity measurements at different locations as the measuring device is portable and mobile.
Continuous conductivity measurement, on the other hand, aims to monitor the conductivity of a liquid during the continuous operation of a system. By continuously controlling the additive dosing, the conductivity of a product cannot fall below a certain level. This ensures that, on the one hand, the safety-relevant concentration of additives is not undercut and, on the other hand, that the maximum conductivity value specified for optimum operation is not exceeded.
Both methods have their advantages and are used depending on the specific requirements and areas of application.
Further areas of application
Continuous conductivity measurement is used in various application areas, especially in industry and research. In scientific research, continuous conductivity measurement plays a role in a variety of studies, whether in chemistry, biology or environmental science. It helps researchers to accurately monitor and understand changes in solutions or environments.
