For more information: www.EmersonProcess.com/SmartWireless SMART WIRELESS APPLICATIONS Heat Exchanger Health Monitoring for Improved Reliability, Performance, and Energy Efficiency BENEFITS •Smart Wireless solution easily and cost-effectively enhances visibility into the health of heat transfer equipment •Easily monitor long term heat exchanger performance at a glance to maximize energy efficiency and lower costs •Increase unit utilization and consistent product quality CHALLENGE There are hundreds of tube and shell heat exchangers in a refinery operating on a continuous basis that are key to operational efficiency. Loss of exchanger efficiency will necessitate an increase in fuel to the crude heater. Eventually the crude heater will reach its maximum capacity to provide heat to the pro
