Q: Can you provide an overview of the products and solutions your company offers in the field of automation?
A: Since 1984, we have been offering comprehensive level measurement solutions for storage tanks, primarily in process industries. We manufacture a wide range of instruments. These include level gauges for level indication and level switches for controlling levels and preventing overflow. Moreover, we manufacture electronic level transmitters for continuous measurement. These electronic indicators can also seamlessly integrate with SCADA or PLC systems for enhanced process control.
Furthermore, our manufacturing portfolio encompasses diverse instruments tailored to specific principles, applications, and types of liquids. We produce instruments using various construction materials and principles, such as magnetic, conductivity, and refractory glass indicators.
We also provide application-based solutions by assessing customer needs, critical applications, installation limitations, and available space. Based on this assessment, we design and deliver customized level measurement instruments. These instruments ensure optimal performance and reliability for each unique application.
Q: Can you tell us about the primary industry your company operates in?
A: Our solutions cater comprehensively to diverse process industries, encompassing chemical, fertilizer, power generation, and oil and gas sectors. They effectively monitor and regulate levels in both liquid and solid materials, ensuring optimal operational efficiency across various applications. For liquids, such as water, our specialized switches and transmitters provide precise level indication and control. Similarly, our robust solutions extend to solids, including powders, granules, and fly ash in power plants. They enhance management of cement silos, steel plant storage, and grain facilities.
This versatility underscores our commitment to addressing complex industrial needs, offering tailored instrumentation that supports seamless process automation and reliable performance. Whether managing liquid flows or overseeing solid material storage, our technology ensures accurate and efficient level monitoring, contributing to enhanced productivity and operational safety in critical industrial environments.
Q: How do these products enhance productivity and contribute to overall efficiency?
A: Productivity hinges on the efficient management of liquid storage crucial to manufacturing processes, ensuring continuous operations without interruption. Maintaining optimal levels through timely refilling is essential to meeting operational demands seamlessly. Traditionally, monitoring these processes required frequent manual checks, demanding significant time and effort.
Our innovative solution revolutionizes this approach by enabling remote monitoring from a centralized control room. This eliminates the need for constant physical oversight, allowing operators to monitor and manage tank levels efficiently from a single location.
Furthermore, our IoT-based solution enhances operational agility by providing real-time insights accessible via mobile devices. Users can effortlessly access and monitor data from multiple tanks across their facility, regardless of the scale—whether it’s 10, 20, or even 100 tanks. This capability empowers operators to make informed decisions promptly, whether they are on-site or managing operations remotely from the control room.
Our IoT-based level solution underscores our commitment to enhancing operational efficiency, productivity, and operational ease across industrial environments.
Q: Could you share how many industrial houses or companies currently utilize your products?
A: We specialize in providing critical solutions to a wide range of process industries, encompassing water treatment, power generation, oil and gas extraction, pharmaceutical production, and chemical manufacturing. Our expertise extends to managing liquid levels and overseeing solid processes essential for operational efficiency in these sectors. By ensuring precise control and monitoring, we support seamless operations across diverse industrial applications, reinforcing our commitment to enhancing productivity and sustainability in process management.
Q: Is your product or service currently being exported, and what regions or countries are you targeting?
A: We export primarily to the Middle East, constituting approximately 10% of our total sales turnover. The majority of these exports originate from our domestic operations.
