DFX-MM features & benefits

PerformanceA master meter class UFM exceeding current

standards from 0.2 to 200 cSt

Superior linearity and repeatability thanks to

unequalled spatial scanning and ultra-fast scanning

rate

compliant with OIML R117 class 0.3, M.I.D.

2004/22/EC and API MPMS Ch5.8

Truly Provable with standard turbine prover loops

Design32-beams protected design

Transit time operating principle

Unique 22.5° axial symetry with excentration design

for really much less sensitivity to flow profile

disturbances

Small volume transducers cavities minimize the

scaling effects and avoid gas pockets

InstallationReduced straight runs installation possible

Compact integrated electronics for easy site

commissioning and start-up

CommunicationHigh integration to common flow computers.

Secure ethernet communication

HTML-based configuration and auditing software with

open communication protocol for on-line remote

technical support

Powerfull flow imaging capability

ServiceUltrasonic paths redundancy allows scheduled site

maintenance and downtime reduction.

Transducers exchangeable without recalibrating the

meter

r Fact

or

DFX-MM is the only UFM with a stable meter factor over a wide Reynolds range and therefore is ideal for multiproduct pipelines and crude oils with viscosity variation.

DFX-MM requires much less prove volume than other UFM's and therefore is truly provable with standard turbine prover loops where other UFM's definitively should be proved by master meter method.

DFX-MM software

DFX-MM is accurate from low to very high velocities (up to 20 meters/second) and therefore gives versatility to your metering operations.

DFX-MM accurately measures viscous flows even with no flow conditioner and therefore is ideal when pressure drop is the concern.

DFX-MM interfacing is easy and cost effective thanks to its Web server and Ethernet link,making skid commissioning, meter health check and auditing operations straightforward.
