- Cost effective, proven technology
From ultrasonic designs for larger pipes to turbine models for smaller pipes and fiscal management applications, Thermo Scientific flow meters are cost-effective, accurate and reliable. Our inline turbine flowmeters for liquid or gas are widely used in the oil and gas, petrochemical and water treatment sectors and are designed to handle tough industrial applications at a competitive price. The turbine meter consists of a compact body or spool piece that contains
a rotating impeller. The assembly functions very much like a “windmill” in that the rotational speed is directly proportional to the flow rate. The rotor, manufactured from magnetic stainless steel, generates a pulsed output as the blades rotate through the flux field of a magnet that is contained in the pickup assembly. This feature allows the instrument to function without the need for an exterior power source so that it can be installed in a remote
location with a battery powered totalizer or data logger. The flow measurement data can be read in the field via the local display or can be transmitted to a DCS. Alternatively, a 4-20mÅ output can go directly into the customer’s own process control system. Turbines are easy to install due to their compact design, which results in minimal downtime for installation and maintenance.
Most models are available with standard NPT threads or a variety of ANSI flanges.
Model 6500 Inline Turbine Flowmeter
The Model 6500 turbine flowmeter is intended for the highly accurate measurement of liquids and gases over a wide range of pipe sizes from 13mm to 300mm (0.5 in. to 12 in.) in diameter. The Model 6500 gives continuous, reliable flow measurement with accuracy levels of better than 0.5% for liquid and 1% for gas. Each instrument is factory calibrated and can be subject to third party calibration, if required, for an additional fee.
Model 6600 Custody Transfer Liquid Inline Turbine Flowmeter
The Model 6600 custody transfer turbine flowmeter is designed to provide highly accurate liquid flow measurement under the exacting conditions encountered in the refining and petrochemical industry. Capable of achieving accuracy of ±0.15% or better over a specified flow range, it is specifically intended for use in fiscal or custody transfer applications. The Model 6600’s unique design provides improved viscosity compensation and low pressure drop. Two
pickups are included as standard for dual pulse integrity and superior resolution.
