Production, process and plant engineers will find the highly flexible Wafer-Cone Flow Meter from McCrometer features a modular design that lets them easily and economically replace the flow element to adjust to changing flow conditions in dynamic processes .
The unique Wafer-Cone Flow Meter relies on differential pressure technology with built-in flow conditioning to achieve an accuracy of +0.5%, with a repeatability of +0.1%. It operates over a flow range of 10:1. It is designed for liquid or gas service in line sizes from 0.5 to 6 inches, which makes it ideal for a wide range of applications, from natural gas wells to small process lines and many plant infrastructure tasks.
With the ability to self-condition flow, the Wafer-Cone Flow Meter is a real space-saver. It eliminates the need for extensive up/down stream straight professional pipe runs required by other DP technologies, such as orifice plates and venturi tubes. It can be installed virtually anywhere in a piping system or be easily retrofit into an existing piping layout, resulting in significant installation flexibility and initial cost savings.
Unlike traditional DP instruments such as orifice plates and venturi tubes, the Wafer-Cone Flow Meter’s design is inherently more accurate because the flow conditioning function is built-into the basic flow sensor design. The Wafer-Cone conditions fluid flow to provide a stable flow professional profile that increases accuracy. The flow sensor‘s design features a centrally-located cone inside a tube.
