Engineers who need accurate flow detection or measurement of air, gases, or liquids in smaller pipe sizes will find several diverse flow instrument solutions available from Fluid Components International (FCI).
Using advanced, ultra-reliable thermal dispersion flow measurement technology with no-moving parts, FCI’s ST75 Series and ST100L Air/Gas Flow Meters and FLT93L Flow Switch provide ideal solutions for use in 0.25 to 2 inch (DN6 to DN50) pipe or tubing. They excel where low flows, wide-turndowns, dirty fluids, HazEx or harsh installations are among the applications factors.
These flow instruments offer many advantages for service in a wide range of applications from plant, building or lab gas sub-metering to small inlet air/gas feed lines for boilers.
Many small process line applications are difficult to measure reliably with high repeatability due to variations in temperature and pressure, and have wide flow rates. FCI’s thermal flow meters and switches are unaffected by, or have on-board compensation for, temperature and pressure changes and, in addition to superior detection of low flow rates, provide 100:1 turndown as a standard feature.
FCI’s ST75 Series Air/Gas Flow Meters are ideal for lines sizes from 6mm to 51mm. Gas or air measurement accuracy is available up to 1% of reading, ±0.5% full scale.
The best-in-class ST100L Air/Gas Flow Meter is designed in a spool piece configuration in 25-50mm tubing, schedule 40 and schedule 80 piping. It measures air/gas flows from 0.01 to 3,140 Nm3/h.
