Flow Measurement for Bean & Seed Heating in Edible Oil Production
Reduce energy usage with reliable flow instrumentation.
Accurate and repeatable steam flow measurement
During feedstock preparation in edible oil production seeds are heated to properly harden the interior for solvent extraction. During this process, steam flow control is crucial in optimizing end product quality and reducing unnecessary energy usage.

Product Solutions
Rosemount 8800 Series Vortex Flow Meters offer world-class reliability with a gasket-free, non-clog meter body that eliminates potential leak points, resulting in maximum process availability and fewer unscheduled shutdowns. The unique design of Emerson's Rosemount 8800 Vortex Flow Meters features isolated sensors that eliminate the need to break process seals for flow and temperature sensor replacement.
- An isolated sensor allows for online replacement without breaking the process seal
- Increase plant availability and eliminate potential leak points with a unique gasket-free meter body design
- Eliminate downtime and maintenance costs associated with plugged impulse lines with a non-clog meter body design
