Flow Measurement & Control

WHITE PAPERS AND CASE STUDIES

• Full-Bore, Unrestricted Mounting Flow Meter For Municipalities

  Like all wastewater treatment facilities, the City of Pendleton WWTRRF faces the daily challenge of maintaining water safety and quality for the city while improving energy consumption and meeting city, state and national regulations. Endress+Hauser’s Promag W 0xDN electromagnetic flowmeter provides stable measurement solutions regardless of mounting locations.

• ABB Flowmeters Help Cut Water Loss In Bangkok

  ABB’s AquaMaster flowmeters have been integral to the overall water management solution. Over 400 AquaMaster flowmeters actively serve the Bangkok Metropolitan area helping optimize the management of the water distribution network. 

• Digester Biogas Flow Measurement

  Engineers at a municipal wastewater treatment utility were seeking an improvement over their existing, maintenance-intensive flow metering technology. 

• Using IoT-Based Tank Level Monitoring For Volume Measurement

  Level monitoring systems has successfully triumphed every implementation. Their deployments allow the users to measure the level of liquid stored in a container of any shape, size, orientation, or material. Powered with the advanced telemetric technology of Internet of Things, these systems measure liquid level without making any contact with the liquid and transmit the readings to a comprehensive platform suite.

• In-Situ Calibration: Methods And Pitfalls Of Thermal Mass Flow Meter Sensor Field Validation

  Mid-to-large size facilities and campuses inevitably have hundreds of flow instruments to monitor, maintain, and repair. For a reliability engineer, ensuring that all instrumentation meets ISO 9000 or similar standards is a time-consuming responsibility. By Matthew J. Olin, President & CEO, Sierra Instruments, Inc.

• Meter Technology Used For Verification

  The core of Coriolis mass flowmeters are oscillating tubes. As soon as mass is flowing through them, a Coriolis force is affecting the oscillation, creating a phase shift.

• Mass Or Volume? A Weight Off The Bottom Line

  Confusion often arises over the difference between mass and volume flow measurement and when a particular measurement should be applied.

• DM Petroleum Operations Relies On FPI Mag Flow Meter For Tough U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve Application

  New tests recently performed by DM Petroleum Operations Company with the FPI Mag® Flow Meter from McCrometer continue to confirm the flow meter’s accurate performance and reliability on two rugged Texas brine disposal lines supporting the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR).

• New Developments In Thermal Dispersion Mass Flow Meters

  This paper describes a newly developed microprocessor-based thermal dispersion mass flow meter that uses four temperature sensing elements in its flow sensor instead of the traditional two elements and automatically manages changes in gas selection, gas temperature, gas pressure, and outside temperature. By John G. Olin, Ph.D., Founder/Chairman, Sierra Instruments

• Advanced Diagnostics of Thermal Mass Flow Meters

  Many thermal mass flow meters are of the insertion type. As a starting point, proper insertion depth and straight run per the manufacturer’s recommendations should be adhered to.

• 4 Keys To Great Portable Ultrasonic Flow Metering

  The liquid measurement market is an extremely large market with many varied measurement requirements. To get the best bang for your buck, a portable ultrasonic flow meter is a practical solution. With a portable ultrasonic flow meter, you can use one liquid flow meter in several locations throughout your flow process.

• 10 Things You Probably Don’t Know About Cone Meters (But Really Should Find Out)

  Cone meters have been around for decades, since the mid-1980s. They are frequently confused with other technologies for a number of reasons.
