Greg McMillan’s pH Measurement Best Practices
Jim Cahill
Greg McMillan presented pH Measurement Best Practices at the recent Mary Kay O’Connor Safety & Risk Conference as part of the 79th Annual Instrumentation and Automation Symposium For the Process Industries. Here is the abstract from the pH Measurement Best Practices paper that Greg also submitted. pH measurement has the greatest sensitivity and rangeability by far of any ion composition measurement. However, there are…

How To Video—Calibrating pH Sensors with Two Buffer Solutions
Jim Cahill
Last week we featured a “How to” video on smart antenna installations and here you can find other “How to” videos we done throughout the years. An Emerson colleague, Charu Pandey , alerted me to one published this week. In the video, How to Calibrate pH Sensors with Two Buffer Solutions | Emerson (run-time 4:01), Charu demonstrates this calibration process. It’s recommended that before you begin, you have the Rosemount…

Accurate, Reliable Measurements for Saturated Steam Measurements
Jim Cahill
As summer will soon be winding down here in the Northern Hemisphere, many manufacturers and producers must contend with the effects of falling ambient temperatures on their production processes. For some level measurements, pressure diaphragms, wet legs, and any liquid line can suffer damage when process fluids solidify and expand, potentially causing unplanned unit or plant shutdowns. For example, in the 2021 big freeze…
