Coriolis Mass Flow Meters from 3/8" to 10"

Image
Coriolis flow meters (also referred to as Coriolis mass flow controllers) are   very accurate flow meters designed to measure the flow rate of liquids, slurries, & oils.   Our flow meters ship from stock (usually within 48hrs) and are configured for you. A Coriolis flow meter contains a tube which is energized by a fixed vibration. When a fluid (gas or liquid) passes through this tube the mass flow momentum will cause a change in the tube vibration, the tube will twist resulting in a phase shift. This phase shift can be measured & a linear output derived proportional to flow. Our EASY to use CORIOLIS Mass Flow Meters are in stock at  prices that beat our competition . Read more

Ultrasonic Liquid Flow Meter with Thermal Energy/BTU Capability

  Ultrasonic flowmeters use sound waves to determine the velocity of a fluid flowing in a pipe. At no flow conditions, the frequencies of an ultrasonic wave transmitted into a pipe & its reflections from the fluid are the same.

Methane and Natural Gas Mass Flow Meter 1/2" to 2" NPT

Image
  Our natural gas and methane Flow meters feature our proprietary MEMS thermal time-of-flight mass flow sensor installed in a laminar flow channel that forms a boundary layer ensuring laminar flow exists in the desired measurement area. Conventional thermal mass flow meters have sensitivity to the thermal properties of the gas as well as to the gas flow conditions. Our time of flight mass flow meter, utilizing the time of flight of micro pulses of thermal bursts of energy, has no sensitivity to temperature or gas properties when the system is “zeroed” in the desired gas…  Read more

Turbine Flow Meter

Image
  A turbine flow meter is used for volumetric total flow &/or flow rate measurement & has a relatively simple working principle. As fluid flows through the turbine meter, it impinges upon turbine blades that are free to rotate about an axis along the center line of the turbine housing. The angular (rotational) velocity of the turbine rotor is directly proportional to the fluid velocity flowing through the turbine. The resulting output is taken by an electrical pickoff(s) mounted on the flow meter body. Read more

ModBus and USB Serial Terminal Instructions for Thermal Flow Meters

Image
  The Tactical Flow Meter uses the Modbus RTU Communication protocol. To enjoy the highest level of resolution many values are transmitted as CDAB Longs, that by default, according to the ModBus RTU protocol. These CDAB Longs carry a 10,000 multiplier to provide FOUR digits of precision. To parse the reading from the flow meter the user need only divide the returned Long CDAB value by 10,000.  We also provide some variables in the CDAB Float that are in the IEEE 752 format. These are used in emulation modes for various manufacturers. Factory Tactical Flow Meter ModBus COM Setup: BAUD 19200 Data Bits: 8 Parity: Even Stop Bits: 1 Termination Character: NONE Note: Zero Suppression provides the user with the ability to suppress readings from the flow meter, however we will not suppress the Sensor RAW value from your being able to read it. The suppression is handy for suppressing low value totalizing events and low end control system anomalies. Configuration Registers: These registers are f

Thermal mass flow meter wiring and connection instructions

Image
  Wiring for 4-20 using the Internal 24 VDC power supply from the Mass Flow Meter.  Be sure to place the jumper to the INT position. This is the easiest method of outputting 4-20 mA for 0 to Full Scale. DO NOT USE this method if you are using a PLC or device that has POWER. This method can ve easily read with a DVM configured to read current as shown above. The advantage of this method is near immunity to noise. Frequently users use 4-20 mA to drive the current across a 250 Ohm Resistor and simply measure 1 to 5 VDC for 0 to Full Scale. Read more

How Thermal Mass Flow Meters Work

Image
The video below shows how the Tactical Flow Meter works and what advantages it has over conventional Thermal Mass Flow meters, such as the Sierra Instruments Model 840 or Sierra Instruments Model 830 series Thermal Mass Flow Meters that I worked with John, Dick, and James that we designed over 25 years ago. The Tactical Flow Meboasts a power fail tolerant datalog storage system that is a significant improvement over conventional “SD Card” file storage/file management systems. While both our datalog storage system and a conventional “SD Card” storage systems utilize flash storage technology our storage system concatenates each event or data at the end of the file using a simple pointer system where the pointers stored in EEPROM and the data is stored sequentially after the last event. If the power goes out in the middle of a storage event in a conventional “SD Card” system and the entire file can be lost.  If a power outage occurs during the middle of writing an event in our storage sys
