The ability to monitor two
conductivity cells using a single
transmitter was a key factor in Eon's
decision to replace obsolete
conductivity instrumentation at
Kingsnorth power station with dual
channel transmitters from ABB.
Conductivity meters are used to sample the station's high-purity boiler water and the turbine condenser water purity. Although not immediately critical to the station's operations, they detect any build-up of impurities and provide an early warning of contamination.
The contract included 23 AX400 Series dual input transmitters, 13 AC220 conductivity cells, 33 AC220 cells and 44 flow chambers.
