On Site: Reliable Flow Measurement with FLEXIM's WaveInjector®

Field-Proven Worldwide.

… Measurement of Different Media, such as Tar, Machine Oils, Glycol Mixes, Carbonate Lye, Cracker Ethylene, Cooling Water, Hot Water, etc.

The Special Measuring Technology Department of one of the leading producers of petrochemical products faces various challenges daily:

  • Control of permanently installed measuring systems.
  • Temporary replacement of defective devices.
  • Flow measurement at places where no stationary measuring system is installed, for diagnostic purposes or for process optimization.

In all these cases, the experts reach for their FLEXIM measuring case: the nonintrusive acoustic measuring technology offers maximum flexibility. The ultrasonic transducers are simply clamped onto the pipe, and quickly installed, without cutting into the pipe and without process interruption. For many different applications, the department uses a WaveInjector® together with transducers selected for the respective measuring task. The handy portable transmitter; easily fixed even at measuring points with difficult access, automatically recognizes the connected transducers.
