Non-intrusive ultrasonic saturated steam flowmeter capable of measuring steam flow without the need to cut the pipe.
It used to be difficult to measure the steam flow used in plants in various industrial sectors, but this ultrasonic flowmeter can now be installed even when the equipment is running.
Measure steam flow accurately, thanks to new noise-reduction technology, whatever the pressure (from 0.1 MPa (G)) and temperature conditions (up to 180°C).
Modern industries rely heavily on advanced technologies to accurately measure various parameters, and the field of flow measurement is no exception. The Fuji Electric FSJ flowmeter offers a non-intrusive, accurate and reliable method of measuring the flow of saturated steam under a variety of conditions. Here's a detailed look at its technical datasheet .
Mounting method
The flowmeter adopts a non-intrusive mounting method, eliminating any interference with the saturated steam flow. This approach guarantees accurate, reliable measurement without disturbing the process.
Fluid and Measurement Method
Saturated steam is the measuring medium, offering optimum compatibility with a variety of industrial environments.
Transit time difference technology is used to ensure accurate flow measurement. This ultrasonic-based method offers high sensitivity and exceptional resolution.
Flow speed range
The flowmeter can measure flow velocities from 0 to ±50 m/s, covering a wide range of industrial applications.
Accuracy
Piping and Pipe Characteristics
A pipe length of 20 D or more upstream and 10 D or more downstream is recommended to ensure stable, accurate measurement.
The flowmeter is compatible with carbon steel and stainless steel pipes, offering installation flexibility for nominal diameters (DN) of 50, 65, 80, and 100.
The flowmeter is suitable for pipe thicknesses from 2.8 to 3.9 mm, enabling efficient installation in a variety of configurations.
Fluid conditions
