Meter makes the most of low-pressure flows
Influx Measurements has solved the design problem of achieving economical flow measurement for low-pressure gases, typically met on methane or sour gas monitoring from digesters
The standard unit is entirely mechanical, with no electronics, and is therefore suitable for use in all hazardous areas Options are to add NAMUR type alarm output signals, with the alarm points indicated on the meter scale by separate pointers, or to specify the 4-20mA two wire flow transmitter version.
Both the switch outputs and the transmitter electronic version are available with intrinsically safe approval, for use in hazardous areas.
Display housing is IP65, and the unit will operate with fluid temperatures up to 200C.
In addition to standard 316 stainless steel constructions, alternative contact materials, including plastics or PTFE, can be manufactured to suit corrosive applications.
Special versions are available for low pressure drop applications, for example in low pressure gas flow measurement, such as in aeration flows, biogas or fermenter monitoring.
