FLOW MEASUREMENT + INSTRUMENTATION

New process transmitter fromWIKA

Roxar 2600 multiphase flow meters

With its 4 ... 20 mA, 4 ... 20 mA HART ® , PROFIBUS ® PA or FOUNDATION Fieldbus™

The Roxar 2600 Multiphase Flow Meters (MPFM) ac- curately characterise flow regimes and provide critical information on a well’s production capabilities. Built on a scalable technology platform, the advanced meter’s signal processing and field electronics provide sensitive measurements and a comprehensive mapping of flow. Employing this modular meter will improve production optimisation, flow assurance and well testing, while meeting all field conditions and cost requirements. Enquiries: Visit www.emerson.com

output signals, combined with either intrinsic safety or flame- proof enclosure ignition protec- tion type (in accordance with ATEX and IECEx), the Model CPT-2x is ide- ally suited to applications with the highest demands on measurement technology.

cell delivers especially accurate measured val- ues, particularly with small measuring ranges. As a result of the special sealing concept, op- eration in almost all industries and applications is possible without difficulties. Easy configuration and operation Service and configuration at the instrument is carried out using the optional display and op- erating module, which can be fitted in four po- sitions. The operating menu has a simple and self-explanatory structure and has thirteen se- lectable languages as standard. Alternatively, the operating parameters can be set using the PACTware™ free and non- proprietary configuration software. An instru- ment-specific DTM enables easy integration into corresponding process control systems. Enquiries:WIKA Instuments.

The company was able to develop an ultrasonic sensor based on the latest sonic transducer technology, which does not make any compromises in quality in spite of its economy-based design. The devices in the plastic threaded barrel are made of highly resistant liquid crystal polymer (LCP) and the translucent end caps with an M12 connector output from Ultem. Both plastics have already proved their strength over long periods of use in other Turck products. The RU50 Eco sensor series is available with a switch

The OPTIFLUX 1050 is a cost-effective electromagnetic flowmeter (EMF) with lightweight wafer-style design. The meter is a very economical solution for sim- ple applications with conductive liquids ( ≥ 5 μS/cm) involving low solid content (up to 10%). This particularly includes applications in water, wastewater, mobile applications, agriculture or firefighting where extremely high accuracy, extensive diagnostics or a wide range of communication options are not a priority. The ex- tra isolation of the electronic device and housing also makes this EMF suitable

for use in areas with extreme humidity. The OPTIFLUX 1050 features a reinforced PFA liner and Hastelloy ® electrodes that guarantee excellent chemical resist- ance and a large temperature range (up to +120°C / +248°F). The EMF has no internal moving parts, does not require maintenance and is insensitive to vibra- tions. It comes with current output (incl. HART ® ) or ac- tive pulse/frequency output and Modbus. A full on-site verification of the EMF without process interruption can be carried out using the OPTICHECK service tool.

output as well as with an analog voltage or current output signal. The customer can choose here between a variant with an M12 connector output and a variant with a cable output. Retro-reflective sensors are available for conveyor belt applications. These can be taught to switch at a fixed distance from a reference object and relia- bly detect all objects between the sensor and the reference point. The translucent end cap also offers the benefit that the switch state of the sensor can be clearly detected from virtually any angle. Enquiries: BrandonTopham. Email brandon.topham@retautomation.com
