Genesis Model ED1 Installed on Desalter at Refinery

A Genesis™ Multiphase Detector with a 106-inch long Pentarod probe was installed on a 13-foot diameter desalter at a refinery in the Eastern United States for monitoring and comparison vs. an existing Fisher torque tube displacer transmitter. Desalters are an important process element at refineries as desalting removes both salt and residual free water. The goal in this application is to keep the interface level constant for optimum efficiency. The challenge is that interface level must be accurate enough to control and keep free water from contacting the desalter electrodes, which can cause expensive damage.
