Emerson: Emerson Flexim FLUXUS/PIOX 731 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meters

Emerson has announced the Flexim FLUXUS/PIOX 731 series - a range of non-intrusive, clamp-on, ultrasonic flow meters designed to offer good flexibility, convenience and availability. The nine models in the series feature high-performance volumetric and mass flow sensing technologies and a robust, functional design.Process manufacturers often need to make permanent or temporary flow measurements in areas where penetration into the process media would be problematic because it would typically require a production interruption, along with high costs and downtime. The Flexim 731 series provides non-intrusive volumetric or mass flow measurements with no process media pressure limitations. Modular hardware enables the reduction of assembly time by 20% for faster delivery, the company claims, and integration with most up-to-date software and hardware is designed to be straightforward.The series provides disturbance correction for enhanced accuracy in challenging conditions, such as disturbed flows. It also provides an Advanced Meter Verification feature to validate meter performance, Wet Gas Correction for accurate gas stream measurements, and the Dynamic Gas Meter feature for mass and volume correction. Various models are available to meet varying application requirements.All models include an 84 x 45 mm backlit display with 240 x 128 pixel resolution for easy readability, synchronised channel averaging for gas measurements, and a wide power supply range of 0-240 VAC ±10% at 50-60 Hz or 11-32 VDC. A USB-C port is provided as a servicing interface for programming and data extraction.
