INS-CS-0028 API Separator Interface Control System

The Agar System 2 provides automatic monitoring and indication of accumulated hydrocarbon in API skimmer systems. When used in conjunction with mechanical or pneumatic actuators, the system provides complete automatic control of the oil recovery process.

INS-CS-0029 Two Phase vs Three Pahse Separator

Determining the production rate from oil wells is simpler and less costly because of AGAR’s advanced technologies. For many years complex 3-phase separators were the industry standard because measurement technologies required the separation of the hydrocarbon, water, and gas phases.

INS-CS-0030 Gas Sweetening Product Applications

Contamination of amine systems (Refer to Figure 1 on following page) results in operational and environmental challenges for the operator. Contaminants include: Particles such as iron sulfide with the feed, Heat stable salts, Surface active agents, Liquid hydrocarbon in the gas feed, Carboxylic acids formed from oxygen entering the amine system, Corrosion inhibitors and water treatment chemicals entering with makeup water and wash water

INS-CS-0013 Fire Protection for Aircraft Hangars

AAR MRO Services supports airline operators with everything from maintenance inspections and equipment upgrades to airframe painting and heavy maintenance for all major aircraft in service. The largest MRO operator of its type in the Americas, AAR recently opened the company’s largest facility, located at the Chicago Rockford International Airport.

INS-CS-0031 Contaminant Detection in Lubrication Systems

Industrial lubrication systems require close monitoring of the lubricating fluid to detect contaminants and prevent the resultant degradation of the fluid. Contaminants such as water and metallic fines are commonly monitored manually, requiring routine sampling and laboratory analysis.

INS-CS-0014 Integrating Fire & Gas Safety with Process Control Systems

If a fire, smoke or gas leak is detected in an industrial facility, prescriptive actions must be taken by the fire and gas safety system, as well as the process control system, to mitigate and control the hazard. Using a certified, documented fire and gas safety system that can communicate appropriate messages to the process control system during an event is vital to the safety of a facility and its occupants.

INS-CS-0032 Pulp Mill

The manufacturing of Paper using the Kraft Mill process generates liquids called Black Liquor and Soap in the digester. When the wood is cooked in the digester a caustic bath is used.

INS-CS-0015 Interface In-Line Measurements

Alkylation is an important refining process in which light olefins (e.g. propylene, butylene) are converted into higher value gasoline blending components with improved octane and vapor pressure properties. Agar technology can be applied in the alkylation process in two fundamental categories.

INS-CS-0043 Hydrogen & Fire Safety Detection

By itself, hydrogen is colorless, odorless, tasteless and nontoxic. But when even small amounts of this seemingly harmless substance mix with air, it morphs into a major fire hazard.

INS-CS-0016 Gas Sweetening

The Agar Foam Detector can detect the presence of foam far earlier than a ΔP cell, pressure gauge or other technologies. The probe can initiate or increase the anti-foam chemical injection rate causing the foam to dissipate. As a result, the anti-foam chemical feed rate is optimized, reducing the operator’s overall chemical costs.
