Unique Challenges

The petroleum and petrochemical industries provide us with gas and oil, dyes and plastics, pharmaceutical products and chemicals that are used to produce other chemicals. Challenges range from safety and employee awareness to production monitoring and data delivery.

In order for petroleum manufacturers to remain profitable, the production environment must be managed in real-time. The display of key performance indicators and informational data in real-time is critical in order to maintain a safe working environment while meeting production goals. The sections below provide a brief list of applications we've served and the customers we've helped.

Popular Applications

Panel message
APPLICATION

Reliable process feedback is critical to operator safety and process efficiency. Operators need feedback from field control devices such as PLCs, sensors, level indicators and other devices that provide process information in order to make good decisions. Rugged vacuum fluorescent display provide crisp data and process feedback.

Tank level
APPLICATION

Large digital displays are a great solution for monitoring tank farms. Intelligent tank level sensors can safely send a serial or analog signal to a remote display. Great for field engineers that have to check multiple sites. Rather than fighting the elements to view an analog gauge the display can be positioned in a control house window for “drive by” monitoring.
