New ultrasonic flowmeter on show at ISA Edmonton

Visit the Krohne Booth at the 2008 ISA Edmonton show, to see the new Optisonic 6300 clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter, now available in sizes for large pipes

Krohne, a global technology leader in the development, manufacture and distribution of accurate, reliable and cost effective level and flow measurement products for the process industries, offers the new Optisonic 6300 clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter, designed for easy installation and high reliability in heavy industrial and hazardous environments.

Clamp-on flowmeters like the Optisonic 6300 are a highly cost-effective solution for large-pipe applications.

Offering performance capabilities that exceed even those of the UFM600T model, the Optisonic 6300 features improved measurement accuracy, ATEX Approval, an extended temperature range and the ability to handle multiple line sizes.

The Optisonic 6300 also includes numerous features to aid installation and enhance operation.

One new feature is an integrated display that allows signal quality to be shown in real-time during the calibration of the signal transducer.

This unique feature allows engineers to optimise flowmeter performance and maximise measurement accuracy.

The Optisonic 6300 is a hassle-free product that can be installed quickly and without special tools.

The flowmeter has a clamp-on mechanism that was explicity formulated to offer the strength necessary to aid installation in industrial applications.

The Optisonic 6300 is also fitted with a protective casing that ensures smooth and efficient operation, even in the most demanding and hazardous conditions, including everything from aggressive vapour and dust to mechanical damage and solar radiation.

The casing also helps to reduce product maintenance by protecting the grease that allows the signal transducer to cling to the tube wall.

With the grease ensuring the staying power of the signal transducer, Optisonic 6300 delivers consistent performance over time, increasing the time between maintenance periods, plus providing the added benefit of easy re-lubrication.

The Optisonic 6300 helps companies save both time and money, because it is specifically engineered for use in applications where it is imperative that industrial processes remain uninterrupted without any pressure loss.

Available in three sensor sizes, the Optisonic 6300 can cover the entire pipe diameter range from 0.5 to 160inches.

Additionally, two other sensors are available for extreme temperature applications, ranging from -5 to +200C (23 to 392F).

Multiple Optisonic 6300 sensors may be combined with a UFC 300 electronic signal converter for greater flexibility: its sensors can accommodate a pipe size of DN 4000/160inches.

The ISA Edmonton 2008 event will take place at Northlands Agricom in Edmonton, Alberta, in booth #303, on April 9-10, 2008.
