Seal water flow measurement

Pulp processes consist of a number of pumps, agitators, refiners and other auxiliary equipment with shaft seals. Each seal requires an uninterrupted sealing water flow to ensure proper function of the seal. Kytola’s genuine SLM seal water flow meters are the perfect choice for these extremely demanding operating conditions.

  • Made for harsh conditions
    SLM’s structure ensures durability under corrosive and dirty conditions
  • Easy-to-clean
    SLM’s can be serviced and cleaned on the run without interrupting the process. This saves unnecessary downtime and enhances runnability. 
  • Flexible configuration
    Higher seal water flows (e.g.  DD washers) are covered by variable area flow meters (also commonly known as rotameters). Kytola’s model K is one option with a variety of component materials and measuring ranges.
  • Metal tube flow meters are especially compatible for Nash vacuum pumps
    The lime kiln process utilizes Nash pumps for dewatering.

Air or water purging

The pulp process incorporates a variety of applications for air or water purging. Variable area flow meters safeguard the function of vital process instruments and optics. Typically instrument air or inert gas like N2 is measured during these processes. Constant flow regulators are used to purge water.  Their operational reliability is impeccable for gas flows in applications where supply or backpressure varies. Kytola constant flow regulators help prevent clogging and they give you ease of mind so that you do not need to worry about pressure fluctuations to sensing lines of dP transmitters.

  • Robust structure
    Since the early days of company history, Kytola has been working in close co-operation with the pulp and paper industry. This gives us unrivalled advantages in tailor-making flow meters for the industry-specific operating conditions. Products are durable and long-lasting, they have a sturdy, robust design and excellent precision.
  • Custom flow scales
    Parameters such as pressure and temperature need to be considered when sizing the flow scale. Kytola offers their expertise to size exact flow scales to fit customer’s process for most accurate flow measurement.

Flushing and cooling waters

Variable area flow meters are ideal for cooling and flushing water purposes in pulp mills. They have a robust structure and straight-forward mechanical functionality. As an example biomass boiler ash screws and bottom ash conveyors need to be cooled with glycol and water mixture. Kytola’s variable area flow meters with flanged connections are ideal for this specific application.

  • 4-20 mA flow output
    Kytola’s V and K Smart flow meters are designed to withstand harsh operational environments and are often used for flushing seals for example in DD washers
  • Clear visual indication
    Kytola variable area flow meters have a clear visual indication of flow rate. The 4-20 mA output gives added value, it enables both local flow rate indication and an mA output signal to customer’s control room or automation system for remote flow rate monitoring.
