A revolutionary offering, unique to Eldridge Products, is the new FAT 'Flow Averaging Tube' design.
Available in both insertion-type and in-line versions, this new design concept greatly simplifies installation requirements and provides a stable flow measurement under conditions where disturbances in the flow profile would defeat traditional thermal mass flow devices.
All sensor types are available with either ATEX EExd or safe-area transmitters in integral or remote-mounted versions.
A key advantage held by all Eldridge Products thermal mass flow meters is their advanced 'Master-Touch' transmitter technology, providing the user with a powerful feature set.
* Exceptional accuracy of +/- [1% of reading + (0.5% of full scale + 0.2%/C)].
* Turndown ratio of at least 100:1.
* Repeatability of 0.2% Full Scale.
* Easy to use pushbutton operator.
* Up to four independent metering ranges, and the ability to switch between ranges without interrupting the measured process.
* A wide variety of user-selectable engineering units that dynamically convert the flow rate and accumulated total to the new units.
* Continuous time stamping of maximum and minimum flow values.
* Selectable 4-20 mA or 0-5 VDC proportional output signal.
* Two 1-Amp user-configurable relays can be set to provide limit alarms, perform batch counting functions or provide a pulse/ frequency output.
* RS232/ 485 serial communications allow remote monitoring and configuration of the transmitter using Eldridge free issue 'EPICommunicator' PC software.
* 'LightWIRE' infrared communications capability for local control via PC with Communicator IR module or via Communicator II and III handheld IR remote control units.
