Standard
Features:
Provides Direct Mass Flow Measurement for
Saturated Steam -
the use of a precision platinum RTD and the
ability to perform complex density calculations
allow the meter to provide a direct mass flow
measurement without the need for a separate mass
flow calculator.
Highly
Accurate - when correctly installed,
the mass flow measurement accuracy for saturated
steam exceeds 1.5% of reading in the most common
pipe sizes.
Simple Installation
and Commissioning - loop powered design
simplifies wiring and signal processing.
Additionally, each meter is factory programmed
and ready for use upon delivery. The built-in
user interface provides access to all
programming functions, including a comprehensive
self diagnostic capability. This self diagnostic
function can detect
bi-phase flow and flow rates
outside the programmed operating parameters. It
can also identify common installation
problems.
State-of-the-Art Vortex
Flow Sensing - the use of titanium in
the construction of the shedder bar offers both
improved durability and improved sensitivity.
Titanium is stronger, lighter and more flexible
than steel. Durability is improved by using a
stronger more flexible material. Lighter weight
and increased flexibility also improve the
ability to sense the lower amplitude vortices
associated with low velocity
flow.
Advanced Signal Processing
Enhances Accuracy - every meter is
supplied with advanced filtering algorithms.
These algorithms allow the meter to establish
continuous real-time norms for signal strength
and quality. Sudden changes to the anticipated
strength or quality of the incoming signal is
rejected as noise. Additional signal processing
cancels out the effect of common mode noise.
Common mode noise is the type of noise most
often associated with vibration in the piping
system.
Optional Flow Straightener - use of a flow straightener significantly reduces the upstream straight pipe length requirement for ONICON's vortex flow meters. For flow straightener details, click here.
Individually Calibrated
and Programmed for Each Application -
every meter undergoes a 5 point calibration from
0-250 ft/sec. In addition, each meter is
individually programmed using application
specific data supplied by the
customer. |
