Safe and easy access to process data via Bluetooth for global leader in chemical solutions
The team at Kemira needed access to real-time data to allow them to check their polymer manufacturing process and make informed decisions about inventory management and maintenance. For all of these tasks, Kemira utilised Bluetooth technology in the form of Endress+Hauser’s Micropilot FMR60B, one of the new generation of 80 GHz radar sensors for level measurement.
As well as offering easy access to process data via Bluetooth, the in-built ‘wizards’ guide users through commissioning, proof testing and verification of the devices for simple operation. Heartbeat Technology offers verification and monitoring functions to identify anomalies for improved safety and productivity.
All commissioning, maintenance and documentation tasks that usually require access to the instrument can be carried out remotely via Bluetooth and Endress+Hauser’s SmartBlue app. “The app is more helpful than navigating through the menu on the device,” says maintenance specialist Paul Farrar. “It gives you a visual representation of the process and it’s easy to build reports and store them on your computer. It also makes ordering easier because you can see the required part code.”
“Having Bluetooth makes our lives ten times easier.”
