Chemical

Bürkert components are used in the chemical industry for automation and control of complex production processes. Efficient solution concepts are developed in coordination with the customer and implemented in the Bürkert’s own ATEX-certified control cabinet construction.

Control Chemistry

For example, Bürkert supplies a well-known customer in the chemical industry with control cabinets for the new production plant for membrane filters in Bitterfeld. In close cooperation with a planning company, a concept was developed that includes control cabinets of different versions and conversion stages for indoor and outdoor explosion protected areas. In addition to pneumatic signals for control of the actuators in the field, the control cabinets also process all intrinsically safe analog and binary signals from sensors and other field devices.

Change under Pressure

Explosion protection is a given in many chemical plant but system availability is also key. Failure is not an option for many components and redundancy can be built into systems to reduce the risk.
