The FLUXUS G736 gas flow meter combines highest precision digital signal processing with the well-known advantages of non-intrusive ultrasonic technology: ease of installation, retrofittable design, high accuracy, and outstanding performance. With 4 ultrasonic transducers operating in reflect mode, 8 independent ultrasonic paths traverse the gaseous medium providing superior flow averaging of up to 4 planes of the pipe section. With this configuration, the G736 flow meter averages out crossflow profile effects and achieves optimum non-intrusive flow compensation for undesirable installation locations where insufficient upstream straight pipe proximity to bends, elbows or other adjacent instrumentation creates flow disturbances.
FLEXIM integrated synchronized channel averaging leads to virtually no delay between the different channels and a highly synchronized, stable measurement result despite possible disturbed flow profiles.
On applications with longer straight runs, the 4-ultrasonic beam arrangement used with the G736 gas clamp-on flow meter achieves outstanding accuracy, performance, and repeatability, making it the preferred solution for redundancy measurement (check metering) of custody transfer meters, leak detection applications and allocation measurement where high accuracies are needed.
Even with shorter straight runs, the integrated disturbance correction provides a precise and highly repeatable measurement in a well-defined uncertainty range.
Furthermore, the meter automatically compensates for changing gas compositions and achieves accurate standard volumetric flow rate calculations with inputs from gas chromatographs, even under these challenging .
