Field Instrumentation for the Pulp & Paper Industry

Pulp & Paper Industry processes run continuously in harsh environments – abrasive pulp slurries, corrosive chemicals, and high process temperatures can damage standard instruments, leading to process downtime and increased production costs. Our Pulp & Paper industrial automation solutions provide peace of mind in black, white, and green liquor flow measurement; tank level measurement; dryer applications; steam flow measurement; and other operations such as

Pulp Mill Processes
Bleach Plant Processes
Chemicals
Coatings
Paper Machines
Lime Kiln
Sludge Press/Lime Sludge after Kiln
TMP Pulp
Process Water
Packaging Manufacturing
Saturated Steam, Superheated Steam
Process Boilers

Azbil North America supplies world-class field instrumentation and control valves to the Pulp & Paper industry across the US, Canada, and Mexico.

Field Instrumentation: Electromagnetic flowmeters, multivariable mass flow vortex meters, and advanced pressure transmitters provide accurate, stable, and reliable measurements of cooling water, wastewater, brine water, heavy media flow, and steam.
Control Valves and Control Valve Positioners: High accuracy control valves and smart valve positioners allow for tight process control and reduced product variability in critical applications.

World-Class Quality and Performance Azbil has designed, manufactured, and supplied industrial field instrumentation used in North America for decades. Our customers rely on accurate flow measurement to keep their processes running. Advanced Pressure Transmitters: gage, absolute, and differential pressure transmitters measure flow, level, and pressure in the harshest environments.

Every Model GTX_ _ _ advanced pressure transmitter features standard Bilingual DE / HART® digital communications protocols to extend the life of legacy DE loops – no need to replace working pressure transmitters when upgrading to HART®, just reconfigure the already-installed transmitter when you are ready.
Remote seal and extended stem options available for high temperature and highly corrosive applications

MagneW™ Electromagnetic Flowmeters are ideal for accurate flow measurement of conductive fluids, with options available for difficult black liquor applications. Pressure drop is minimal; electromagnetic meters aren’t as susceptible to non-laminar flow as other instruments; therefore, they can be installed closer to bends and elbows in pipes.

The MagneW™ PLUS+ Smart High-performance 4-wire Electromagnetic Flowmeters (converter model MGG14C integrally or remotely paired with flanged detector flow tube model MGG18F or wafer style flow tube MGG18D) utilizes a mirror-finished PFA liner that is mechanically locked onto a metal substrate for years of trouble-free flow measurement – no blistering, peeling, or warping, even under thermal shock or vacuum conditions.
The MagneW™ Two-wire PLUS+ Loop-Powered Electromagnetic Flowmeters (integral model MTG18A and remote model MTG14C/MTG18B) combine proven performance with low power requirements. All the model MTG meters are FM non-incendive for use in Class I, II, and III hazardous environments, and don’t require dedicated signal and excitation cables, reducing wiring, installation, and operation costs in remote areas.

Multivariable Mass Flow Vortex Flowmeters: reduced pressure drop for superheated steam flow measurement. Density compensation gives accurate and reliable mass flow measurement, and optional RTD temperature sensors provide real-time energy metering.

Inline models AX22 and AX24 can be configured for pipe sizes from 1/2”- 12” (15mm to 300mm); reduced bore options locally increase fluid velocity for low-flow applications, effectively reducing the low-flow cutoff point.
Insertion model AX23 is an economical option for installation in larger pipes - hot tappable, process shut down not required for installation.

Model AGVB / AGVM Control Valves have large Cv values and high rangeability for reliability and tight flow shutoff and are suitable for general use conditions for water, steam, gas, and other process media. Additional options are available for extreme temperatures, oil-free treatment, and more.

Raised-flange models AGVB and AGVM meet ANSI150 (AGVB) and ANSI300 (AGVM) pressure ratings and are designed for excellent flow control and minimal pressure loss in a compact valve body. Available in nominal port sizes from ½” to 4”, the AGVM / AGVB meets Class IV, IV-S1, V, and VI IEC valve seat leakage standards. Coupled with our actuators, smart valve positioners, and accessory items such as pressure regulators, Azbil AGVB/AGVM control valves are ideal for general use flow control in Pulp & Paper applications.

Smart Valve Positioners are reliable, universal, and easy to use and service. The AVP300 and AVP700 series positioners are compatible with valves from all major manufacturers worldwide. The body design isolates electrical circuits from process media, protecting the positioner from damage due to moisture, oil, and dust. Advanced diagnostics inform users of process conditions and deterioration of the valve itself.

The AVP300 series positioner features an auto-calibration cycle activated by an externally-available switch, maintaining hazardous location integrity.
The AVP700 series positioner features integrated pressure sensors, enhanced valve diagnostic capabilities, and a local user interface (pushbuttons and display) to auto-calibrate, configure settings, and check diagnostics without compromising the explosion-proof construction.
