Burkert Fluid Control Systems sanitary mag flowmeter
01 April, 2009Dedicated to process applications that do not require local push-button programming or display, the blind Type 8056 sanitary mag flowmeter delivers high accuracy over a wide flow velocity range. The Type 8056 is engineered for fast filling applications with short reaction time, high-speed sampling (short sampling/measurement time) and high-speed frequency output, making it suitable for filling systems.
Thermal dispersion gas flowmeter
01 April, 2009 byThe Proline t-mass 65 thermal dispersion flowmeter provides a direct measurement of gas mass flow and temperature.
Mimicking nature for better flow sensors
30 March, 2009Researchers are using the motion-sensing hairs on a blind cavefish as a blueprint for advanced flow sensors.
Passive sonar flowmeter technology — operating principles
18 March, 2009Flow measurements in the mineral processing and mining industry suffer from the limitations placed by previously available flowmeters including the commonly used instruments such as ultrasonic meters, magmeters, turbine meters, orifice plate meters, vortex meters, Coriolis meters and Venturi meters. The desire or requirement to make a non-contact measurement that is accurate and robust, and can be performed on practically any type of fluid within practically any type of pipe, has driven the creation of a new class of flowmeters.
Swagelok flowmeters
12 March, 2009Swagelok variable area flowmeters (VAFs) are used to measure liquid and gas flow rates by means of a tapered tube and float, and provide highly accurate measurement with individually calibrated scales and a 10:1 turndown ratio. All Swagelok VAFs are factory calibrated and marked to indicate the specific media, flow range, and accuracy class. In addition, the product can be calibrated and marked to customer-specific applications.
Ultrasonic flow transmitter
12 March, 2009 byThe UTX878 flow ultrasonic transmitter combines the simplicity of a loop-powered meter installation with advanced clamp-on ultrasonic flow transmitter technology.
Thermal mass flowmeter
12 March, 2009 byThe ST75 flowmeter from Fluid Components International is now available in a remote mountable configuration for applications in hazardous areas or hard-to-reach locations. The ST75’s remote mount transmitter, which includes a full digital display, can be mounted up to 15 m away from its thermal mass flow sensor in the process piping and connected via two 0.50" FNPT cables.
WaterMaster flowmeters
11 March, 2009The WaterMaster range of flowmeters is specifically designed for water, wastewater and sewage applications, and is available in the most commonly installed flowmeter sizes: 40-300 mm.
Digital valve controller wins China's 'best product' award
21 January, 2009Emerson Process Management’s Fisher Fieldvue DVC2000 digital valve controller was named Best Product of the Year 2008 by readers of Control Engineering China Magazine, beating 101 products from 62 countries for the prize.
Scientists create self-powered fluid sensors
04 November, 2008Fraunhofer researchers have created a fluidic energy transducer that creates electricity from fluid motion in the surrounding air or water, enabling the development of self-powered sensors for air or fluid systems.
Printing liquid totaliser
01 November, 2008The ITP is an intelligent printing totaliser intended primarily for liquid flow measurement.
Bulk solid flow measurement
01 November, 2008SolidFlow can be used to measure lean phase mass flow of bulk solids up to 20 t/h, either in free fall or pneumatically conveyed. It uses a microwave technique.
One-stop DP flowmeter solution
01 November, 2008Although differential pressure (DP) flowmeters are based on a relatively inexpensive and mature technology, selecting and installing these devices is not simple and requires a reasonable level of engineering skill.
Magnetic inductive flowmeter
05 October, 2008The DMI series flowmeter operates on the magneto-inductive principle. With no protrusions into the pipe, conductive liquids and slurries can be measured with virtually no system pressure loss. The DMI is available with a PEEK or PVDF flow tube and Hastelloy C measuring electrodes are standard.
Air and gas flowmeters
05 October, 2008The PFM range of flowmeters is for use with air and a variety of gases. With flow measurement of air, liquids, even harsh acids and alkalis, the SMC range of flow measurement equipment can provide in situ displays, remote indicators, analog transmission and digital switching. Some models are equipped with flow adjustment to permit the required flowrate to be preset.
