PremiumCompressed air measurement & control flow solutions
Compressed air isn`t free, so more and more companies carefully monitor its usage. Thermal flow meters are ideal for this application. Because our thermal flow meters measure mass flow directly, no temperature or pressure compensation is required. Thermal flow meters also have a very high turndown, allowing the same flow meter to measure very low leak rates as well as full operational flows.

Wet gas monitoring for refineries
Thermal mass flow meters provide excellent measurement capabilities in dry gas flows. They have proven durability, accuracy, and repeatability. However, thermal flow meters are sensitive to liquid droplets in a wet gas stream. For a thermal flow meter to work accurately in a condensing gas environment, the probe must be placed far enough downstream so that the entrained water has condensed onto the pipe wall. In a very wet environment, any condensing liquid (commonly referred to as mist or fog) contacting the sensor probes causes a high reading due to the liquid vaporizing on the heated portion of the sensor. As a result of this deficiency, measurements with conventional thermal meters are largely ignored when moisture levels rise because there is no confidence that the measurements are true.
