A leading paper mill faced ongoing issues with a critical piece of equipment: its sodium analyzer. Used to monitor the plant’s makeup water and boiler systems, the analyzer was inaccurate, required daily maintenance, and had a tedious calibration process — all of which disrupted operational efficiency.

The operations team needed a reliable, low-maintenance solution to ensure consistent monitoring and protect critical assets.
