Fundamental Materials for Industries
Caustic soda and hydrochloric acid, produced in electrolyzer plants, are fundamental materials used in varieties of industries; chemicals, pharmaceuticals, petrol-chemicals, pulp and papers, etc.
Profitability from Efficient Production
Profit is the result of the effective production with minimized running / maintenance cost.
Effective Production
Proper control of the process brings you stabilized quality of products with the vast operational profit. The process condition may vary often. When conditions are changed, the process controller and sensors have to follow well.
Energy Cost
Ion-Membrane electrolysis bath is the most effective among all types of electrolyzer in caustic soda production. But it still consumes huge energy. Energy consumption has to be reduced to minimize the environmental stress like CO2 emissions, for increasing your profitability.
Maintenance Cost of Membrane
A Membrane has life time. It should be maintained periodically. To prolong operating life, the electrolyzer plant should be monitored for optimized control.
Tough Environments
There is an intensive electromagnetic field around electrolysis bath. In addition chlorine and other by-products are corrosive. Sensing devices have to be tough against such environment with providing accurate measurement all the time.
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
Maintenance costs for these sensing devices should be considered as TCO, next to the initial cost of your investment. Those should be in good balance.
Why Buy Yokogawa?
Our devices can afford to perform accurate measurements under tough condition in electrolyzer plant application. You can minimize these maintenance costs, achieving the maximum profit from the control of the process with accurate measurement.

Technologies Commit Users' Benefits
Our Goal:
Our shared goal is customer satisfaction through operational excellence. Yokogawa has brought true innovations to industry. We are committed to ensuring accuracy, reliability, and safety of your production system throughout your business life cycle. Our comprehensive solutions and expertise help you achieve more results with less total costs of ownership. Below key technologies shall aim for your operational excellence.
Inductive Conductivity Sensors
ISC sensors use a high performance engineering plastic of PEEK (polyetheretherketone) that provides abrasion and corrosion resistance. The sensor has a large bore (17 mm) for optimal resistance to fouling processes and when properly installed, the flow will keep the sensor clean, to help avoid measuring errors. This large bore also allows quick response even on low flow measurement. Also available upon request is a PFA lined sensor that provides excellent heat and chemical resistance.
Dual Frequency Coil Excitation
Magnetic Flowmeters measure flow volume with Faraday's law. The frequency of excitation current given to coils affects in the measurement accuracy and response time. Dual Frequency Coil Excitation is Yokogawa's original technology to ensure ± 0.35 % accurate measurement as well as 0.1 second fast response simultaneously. Our signal processing technique enables us to bring the benefits of an AC & DC magnetic flowmeter into a single magnetic flowmeter.
ASIC for Accurate Measurement
The measurement engine forSMARTDAC+ series is requested to ensure accurate measurement even under the sampling speed as fast as 10 msec measurement interval. This performance is achieved with by Yokogawa developed special A/D converter.
High Withstand Voltage
For performing accurate monitoring for each of cell voltage as well as other parameters like temperature, isolation between channels is the key. A/D circuits of SMARTDAC+ input modules use special transformers. Semiconductor relay, designed by Yokogawa, is another key component for tough isolation. This enables high-speed scanning, while eliminating the periodic replacement of relay board. In addition, SMARTDAC+'s input modules employ integrating A/D converters with superior noise rejection performance.
