Hi Everyone,
I am looking into getting away from our traditional sight glass method to keep track of our daily volumes in our brite tanks. I wanted to get some input on how other breweries went about this. I have a few quotes on differential pressure transducers to monitor the tanks including a controller w/ display to do the calculations. The only problem I have with this is having to modify all our brite tanks to accept this transducers. These installation cost will drive up the cost of this project quickly, since we will have to get certified welds and pressure test all the tanks before they can be used again.
We currently have 9 brite tanks and it will also not be easy to find downtime where we can modify all tanks at one time when they are empty. Our brite tanks range from 55, 110, 236 and 296 BBL tanks.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Derek
