BFX3 COMPACT CLAMP-ON FLOW METERS AND HEAT METERS FOR LIQUID MEASUREMENT
them a fast and reliable solution for non- invasive flow and/or heat measurement applications. As the sensor separation distance is fixed, there is no need for adjustment and once fitted they are not easily disturbed. Clamp on ultrasonic flow meters are ideal for applications when system shut down is

not feasible. These flow meters are non-intrusive and simply clamp on to the outside of the pipe without making contact with the internal fluid. They measure the time it takes for an ultrasonic signal transmitted, from one sensor to the other. The installation of these clamp-on flow meters is quick and simple without the need
to cut into existing pipe-work or the requirement to turn off the supply of water/liquid. It is also possible to supply this model with GPRS/GSM Data logging and remote access via cloud server.

AFFORDABLE ACCURACY FOR WATER DISTRIBUTION MONITORING N
FPI – The Benefits The cost and convenience of achieving accuracy in new or retrofit installations are the two greatest advantages of the FPI mag meter design. Although there are additional advantages, the key drivers typically relate to the ability to deliver quick, affordable installation in existing infrastructure and to maintain accurate measurement even in tightly spaced configurations.
Accuracy Where data is used for billing or cost management measurements, accuracy becomes extremely important. The FPI mag meter’s unique design offers + 0.5 percent accuracy, simple installation, and a low total cost of ownership for new capital projects, maintenance/replacement projects, and, especially, retrofit applications in piping locations that were never before metered. While both conventional mag meters and FPI mag meters rely on the same physics for
highly accurate flow sensing — Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction - the presence of multiple electromagnetic flow sensors along the length of the FPI mag meter probe, which spans the full diameter of the pipeline ensures accurate sensing despite turbulence or irregularities in the flow profile.
Simple Installation A meter’s purchase price is only a portion of its total cost of ownership, which reflects both its ability to adapt to the particulars of the application and the expenses associated with installation and operation. Streamlined FPI mag meter installation through a hot-tapped ball valve connection
contrasts dramatically with disruptive, labour-intensive, flange-mounted conventional mag meters — offering as high as 45 percent savings on the total cost, including installation. With minimal concerns for pipeline turbulence or straight pipe length requirements, an FPI mag meter can be installed practically anywhere, to replace an older meter or support an entirely new measurement location. Because hot-tapping is done in advance to measure the true inner diameter of the pipe, final installation can typically be completed in as little as 20 to 60 minutes. By contrast, mag meters with
flanged connections require shutting down the pipeline for installation, cleaning, or recalibration. Also, meters of that style grow larger and heavier as the pipeline diameter increases. The larger meters extend the time and complexity of the installation process, with greater expenses for pipefitting personnel and heavy-lifting equipment.
