Application Know-How

ƒ Eastman Chemical, Longview, Texas


– Reports the DolpHin sensors’ pH glass formulation increased
sensor life to 6 months (versus 3-4 weeks at best from other pH
sensors)
– The longevity reduced equipment and related maintenance/replace
costs eightfold, provided more accurate pH readings, and slashed
caustic use levels by a remarkable 50%!

ƒ Using the Digital Coriolis CFT50, a leading chemical


producer can measure materials within half a second,
compared to a 20 to 30 second delay with other
technologies
– Given as many as six seal pots filling at a rate of 50 gallons per
minute for each batch, that’s up to 150 gallons per minute of
expensive catalyst unaccounted for with other flow measurement
technologies
