Options for flow measurements
Low-flow liquid and gas flow measurement products get sensing tube for applications monitoring, particularly corrosive liquids and gases, and option for operational pipeline pressures up to 300bar.
Flotech has released two high specification options for the Brooks Quantim Coriolis family of low-flow liquid and gas flow measurement products A Hastelloy C-22 Coriolis sensing tube is available for use on applications monitoring, particularly corrosive liquids and gases, and a high pressure option can be specified for operational pipeline pressures up to 300bar

Loading terminal chooses standard meter
Total's road tanker loading terminal at Killingholme, Lincolnshire has standardised on Brodie BiRotor Plus meters for custody transfer duties.
Flowmeter comes with top accuracy claims
The recently introduced BiRotor Plus PD meter is now available in the UK from Flotech Solutions.
The Hastelloy tube option has been introduced as a safeguard against particular types of corrosion, such as stress corrosion.
The basic Quantim Coriolis design incorporates a sensing tube that is sealed to the body with a high purity weld, thus reducing corrosion potential.
This weld sealing technique uses tube-to-body joining technology.
Incorporating a Hastelloy tube further protects Quantim from chlorides, and is applicable to other applications where stress corrosion may be a concern, or in applications where erosion of the stainless-steel tube may be possible over time.
Hastelloy is more corrosion-resistant to chlorides than the standard 316L stainless tube.
The standard Quantim is suitable for 100bar line pressure applications, and with the standard optional high pressure specification this is extended, making the units suitable for applications up to 300bar.
The Brooks Quantim Coriolis meter and controller are available as: an integrated measurement sensor, flow control valve and control electronics; an integrated flow measurement transmitter unit; or a low profile sensor suitable for operation with a separated transmitter unit.
Users can change the measured liquids or gases without switching meters or recalibrating the device in any way, since the measurement is of true mass flow.
Quantim has no moving parts in the area where process liquids and gases flow, which reduces maintenance.
In addition to measuring mass flow, the device can simultaneously measure density and temperature, making it a multi-variable instrument. Request a free brochure from Flotech Solutions ...
