Precise and robust gas flow meter for flare gas or flare stack applications: Our ultrasonic gas flow measuring instrument FLOWSIC100 Flare-XT is designed for flare gas measurement or flare metering. The high-resolution measurement and innovative sensor design is being developed for most efficient uses in petroleum refineries, natural gas processing or offshore and onshore oil and gas plants. Emission control or monitoring, detection of flare gas leaks, steam flow measurement, monitoring of gas losses, monitoring of steam injection in flare gas burning, as well as process optimization and condition monitoring are fields of use for this gas flow meter. The gas flow meter is measuring values such as gas velocity, gas volume and mass, mass flow rate, molecular weight, volumetric flow a. c., volumetric flow s. c. and sound velocity. The flare gas flow meter provides an intelligent device monitoring process and supports predictive maintenance - designed for current and future challenges.
Flow Measurement with Ultrasonic transit time difference measurement:
Thanks to high-resolution sensors, the state-of-the art electronics precisely detects even very small transit time differences.
Flow Measurement with Ultrasonic transit time difference measurement:
The innovative, flow optimized sensor contour allows optimal measurement results even at very high gas velocities.
Flow Measurement with ASC-technology:
If the signal is blown away due to extreme gas velocity, the patented ASC-technology algorithm ensures uninterrupted measurement.
Accurate flare gas measurement in onshore and offshore facilities in the oil and gas, chemicals, petrochemicals, and refinery industries
FLOWSIC100 Flare-XT is available in three different types. The variants are available as a single or dual path measurement system. Regardless of the path configuration, the system is available in both the cross-duct version and the probe version with single nozzles. The probe version is suitable for compact, one-sided fitting with minimal installation effort. The dual path type achieves high measurement accuracy even under difficult flow conditions.
Thanks to the device changing unit, fast and simple sensor changes are possible during ongoing system operation. The powerful interface unit can be easily connected to a wide variety of control systems and networks thanks to its numerous interfaces.
The interface unit processes incoming signals and calculates parameters, such as the molecular weight, mass flow and gas volume, as well as standardized reference values.
