Burkert's Element system provides a complete systems approach, linking clean line valves, sensors, positioners and valve actuators in a simple architecture to solve total loop control processes.
Element saves processing time by offering total control solutions for media from slurries to steam, and from de-ionised water to hydrochloric acid.
Burkert\'s Element system links clean line valves, sensors, positioners and valve actuators in a simple architecture to solve total control loop processes.
It provides a modular programme of process control products that combine to deliver solutions to specific process requirements, whether in environmentally aggressive or hygienic areas.
The products include valves for on/off and modulating control, and sensors for ph/ORP, conductivity and level; plus digital positioners, control heads and actuators, all of which are designed for valve mounting, delivering maximum space savings and performance.
In addition, the integration of backlit displays and coloured status lights on many Element products enables users to have more interaction and transparency in their systems by being able to quickly determine diagnostic messages at a glance.
Autonomous and flexible, Element makes possible control solutions that would otherwise require control cubicles, and it does so with less investment in planning, assembly and maintenance, as well as wiring and pneumatic hose connections.
Key to these advantages is the physical nature of the Element control platform and the system's connectivity, both local and distributed.
The Element platform is rugged and clean, featuring clean-line control products that combine the chemical characteristics of engineered polymers with the endurance and finish of stainless steel.
As a result, Element products are easy to clean - there is no paint to flake, no interstices to collect dirt, and no pneumatic lines to protrude.
The fact that the Element units offer simple maintenance means they are more environmentally friendly than other solutions.
Local distributed intelligence and, at the same time, full connection to the superior co-ordinating level, is provided in an optimal device design for a range of applications.
