Case study: Identifying causes of unreliable data
Are you sure your systems are working optimally? What if your analyzer is outputting incorrect data and not working as properly as you always thought?
A customer was unhappy with the long response times of their analyzer and called in our field engineers. The Swagelok team evaluated the system and determined that the gas was undergoing some phase changes as it traveled from the sampling point to the analyzer. Phase changes in a sampling line can mean that the sample analyzed in the analyzer is not representative of the process. In some circumstances, this may mean that the customer makes process engineering changes based on inaccurate data.
Working with a team of experienced field engineers (on-site or remote) and the customer, the following improvements could be achieved:
- Phase changes were successfully avoided
- Reaction times were significantly improved
- Thanks to the representative analysis results of the process fluids, the customer now benefits from significantly improved process control
The global network of Swagelok Field Engineers responds quickly and works closely with you to optimize your plant operations and achieve maximum safety. In the process, all systems are reviewed and documented down to the last detail. At the conclusion, you receive a meaningful technical report with specific suggestions for improving your processes that you can implement immediately. The summary of the results is provided digitally and can be shared easily and quickly with your team. The detailed report includes:
- Detailed description of the results
- Suggested improvements for immediate implementation, prioritized by urgency
- Quantified results of all recommended measures in case of implementation
- Concrete solution approaches
