Customer: Petro-Chemical Company – South Coast
Duty: Skid mounted gas compressor – gear box lubrication
Liquid: Lube Oil, SG 0.83, Pressure: 10 Bar g, Temperature: - ambient
Background: The client did not have sufficient space to house a vessel and a separate level monitoring system on the compressor skid, so they needed an innovative solution to achieve level measurement within the confines of the required vessel.

Solution: TCFC solution was to build a special internal cage into an 8” N.B. chamber that carried the float over the measuring length. On the outside of the chamber / vessel wall, the reading display was mounted thereby giving the client the required vessel volume and level indication in one chamber. The solution required re-coding of welders approval to 8” N.B. sch 40 pipe, full X-Ray of all welds and alloy verification for traceability.
