Reduction of carbon footprint through repair service
3 ways how KROHNE can help you reduce the carbon footprint of devices:
When one of your instruments fails, it is always a threat to the performance of your plant. In order to minimise the resulting vital issues, it is necessary to identify the cause and take adequate measures, including an economic and sustainable perspective.
Instrument repair can play a role in supporting a sustainable approach to the use of devices in the field. The service life of the installed base of process instrumentation can be extended, and regulatory compliance achieved. In addition, the resources and emissions that would be required for the production, transportation and installation of a new device can be avoided.
How this KROHNE service contributes to sustainability?
KROHNE´s repair services include a first insight into the issue while the instrument remains in the application. If immediate remote support is not appropriate, KROHNE offers transport, cleaning, failure analysis, condition reports and repair whenever possible and requested.
Extended instrument life: Repairing and maintaining existing equipment extends its operational lifespan, reducing the need to manufacture new devices. This minimizes the environmental impact associated with the production, transportation and disposal.
Compliance with regulations: Accurate and reliable measuring instruments are essential for compliance with environmental regulations. Ensuring that the instruments are functioning properly helps organisations avoid fines and penalties and encourages adherence to emission standards.
Saving resources: By repairing rather than replacing instruments, resources can be reserved and waste reduced. This approach aligns with the principles of a circular economy, which focuses on reusing and recycling materials to minimise environmental impact.
Reduced maintenance: Modern converters often require less maintenance and have longer operational lifespans. This reduces the environmental impact associated with manufacturing, transporting, and disposing of older, less efficient models.
By prioritising the repair and maintenance of measuring devices, we can enhance the accuracy of emissions monitoring, extend the life of existing equipment, and support a more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach.
How can KROHNE help?

Prevent unnecessary transport by offering parts and services close to our customers
Further Benefits
Accuracy in monitoring : Well-maintained measuring instrumentation ensures accurate monitoring of emissions. This precision helps to identify and address emission sources promptly, leading to more effective emission control strategies.
Cost-effectiveness : Repairing instruments is often more cost- effective than replacing them.
