Questtec Solutions Will Keep Your Industrial Boilers Safe

To ensure safe and efficient boiler operation, Questtec Solutions offers advanced liquid level measurement tools. Through its partnership with Questtec, Proconex provides reliable magnetic level gauges, steam boiler water level gauges, and boiler pressure gauges. This guide explains what Questtec Solutions offers, how liquid level measurement works, and why these tools are essential for keeping your industrial boilers safe.

Questtec Solutions designs and manufactures precision instruments for liquid level measurement in industrial settings. Based in Houston, Texas, the company specializes in gauges and valves for demanding environments, such as chemical, oil and gas, and power generation. Their products include transparent gauges, magnetic level gauges, and steam-specific solutions, built to meet strict standards like ASME Section 1. Proconex, a trusted leader in process automation since 1948, distributes Questtec products to help ensure boiler safety.

Questtec's robust designs include the Questtec Glass-Trac Transparent and Questtec Steam-Trac STB-3000 gauges, which provide clear visibility of liquid levels in high-pressure systems. The Questtec Magne-Trac Standard gauge excels under extreme conditions, delivering reliable readings for corrosive or hazardous materials. With over 75 years of experience, Proconex integrates these tools into your systems to enhance safety and performance, as detailed on our About Us page.

Liquid level measurement involves tracking the height of liquids in vessels, such as boilers, to ensure safe and efficient operations. In industrial steam boilers, accurate water level monitoring is crucial to prevent dry firing, which can damage equipment, and overfilling, which risks explosions. Our gauges, like the Questtec Glass-Trac Transparent, use technologies like transparent glass, magnetic floats, or probes to provide precise readings. The Questtec Glass-Trac Transparent allows operators to see the liquid color directly, while the Questtec Level-Trac LT-500 uses probes for high-pressure steam applications.

These systems connect to control setups, providing operators with real-time data. For example, a steam boiler water level gauge, such as the Questtec Steam-Trac STB-3000, helps maintain safe water levels, ensuring boiler stability. Our instruments meet ASME standards, ensuring reliability in demanding environments. As an Emerson Impact Partner, our expertise at Proconex ensures smooth installation and support for these solutions, as noted on our services page.

Questtec Solutions keeps industrial boilers safe through precision and advanced technology. Their products address key safety challenges in steam boiler operations, ensuring compliance and reliability. Here's how Questtec's offerings protect your facility:

• Accurate Water Level Monitoring: Proper water levels in steam boilers are crucial to prevent failures. The Questtec Steam-Trac STB-3000 uses a bi-color ported gauge with a red/green filter, providing clear visual cues: red light passes through steam, while green light shows water. Built for 3,000 PSI, its continuous one-piece chamber ensures durability. This precision prevents dry firing, which can warp tubes, or overfilling, which risks carryover into steam lines.
• Robust Design for Harsh Conditions: Boilers operate under extreme pressure and temperature. Questtec's magnetic level gauge excels in these conditions, handling pressures up to 4,500 PSIG and temperatures from -320°F to 800°F. Its innovative flag design maximizes magnetic field strength, while wide flags and impact-resistant windows ensure clear readings, even in corrosive or vibrating environments.
• Compliance with Industry Standards: Safety regulations like ASME Section 1 require reliable instrumentation. The Questtec Level-Trac LT-500 meets these standards with its SA-105 extruded chamber and Type 800 TFE-insulated probes, rated for 1,000 PSI. Custom-built to your specifications, it ensures compliance and safety. Our lifecycle services, including validation and testing, support ongoing adherence to these standards, as outlined on our services page.
• Enhanced Visibility and Maintenance: Clear level indication reduces operator errors. The Questtec Glass-Trac Transparent uses tempered borosilicate glass, supporting pressures up to 3,000 PSIG. Optional electric illuminators improve visibility in dim conditions. Low-maintenance designs, like corrosion-resistant parts in the Questtec Magne-Trac Standard, minimize downtime to keep your boilers running.
• Customizable Solutions for Specific Needs: Every boiler system is unique, and Questtec offers tailored solutions to meet those needs. The Questtec Level-Trac LT-500 allows for custom probe spacing and piping connections. The Questtec Magne-Trac Standard supports various chamber materials, including stainless steel and exotic alloys like Hastelloy-C276. This flexibility ensures compatibility with your boiler's specific requirements, enhancing safety across applications like power generation and chemical processing.
