F126-EG Safe area / Intrinsically safe – Flow Computer for gas
The F126-EG flow computer has been developed to calculate corrected gas volume at normal conditions. The corrected volumetric flow is calculated by measuring the uncorrected volumetric flow, actual line temperature and pressure which are processed with the equations stored in the flow computer. A compressibility factor can be set to approach a real gas behavior. The reference conditions can be defined as desired (e.g. 15°C or 60°F and 1.013 bar).
Measure. Monitor. Repeat.
For better insights, better decision-making and better process performance.
Key Features & Benefits
- Calculates compensated flow rate, total and accumulated total.
- Displays actual line pressure and temperature.
- Analog output signal reflecting the corrected flow rate.
- Displays total and flow rate simultaneously and additional accumulated total.
- Flow rate: seven 8mm (0.31″) digits.
- Total – resettable: seven 17mm (0.67″) digits.
- Accumulated total – not resettable: eleven 8mm (0.31″) digits.
- Temperature: six 17mm (0.67″) digits.
- Pressure: six 17mm (0.67″) digits.
- Engineering units for flow rate, total, temperature and pressure on the display.
- LED backlight.
- Intrinsically safe according ATEX and IECEx.
- GRP, Aluminum or high grade stainless steel enclosure.
Typical Applications
- Flow measurement in applications where nett gas flow calculation at base conditions is desired without the influence of thermal product expansion and pressure.
- The F-Series is your first and best choice for field mount indicators in safe and hazardous area applications. Especially in harsh weather conditions like rain, snow, sandy deserts, salty atmospheres and temperatures between -40°C up to +70°C (-40°F up to 158°F).
Advantages
- Robust aluminum or stainless steel 316L field enclosure (IP65, IP67 / NEMA Type4X) .
It is so rugged, a truck can even stand on it! - Intrinsically Safe available - ATEX and IECEx approval for gas and dust applications.
- Familiar easy operation with the Fluidwell "Know one, know them all" configuration structure, saving time, cost and aggravation.
- Very diverse mounting possibilities: walls, pipes, panels or directly onto outdoor sensors.
