Flow computer for calculating compensated flow and thermal energy of steam, water and other liquid media and compensated flow of process gases with electronically registered results.

FP-3031 is flow computer for calculating compensated flow and thermal energy of steam, water and other liquid media and compensated flow of process gases with electronically registered results.

● Simultaneous consumption calculations in up to three different measurement systems (A, B, C) for separate process lines.

● The computer enables:

◦ compensated flow and energy measurement of unsaturated or saturated vapour and water according to IAPWS-IF97 guidelines,

◦ compensated flow and energy measurement of other liquids, calculations are made within a range of tabular values entered by the user,

◦ compensated flow measurement of process gases.

● The computers can interact with the following types of flowmeters:

◦ mass flowmeter,

◦ volumetric flowmeter,

◦ differential pressure flowmeter with approximation using root characteristic or according to an iterative algorithm, compliant with PN-EN ISO 5167 (only for water and steam).

● The device has ten measurement inputs:

◦ 3 x RTD/I, three inputs adapted for connection of resistance temperature sensors (Pt100, Pt200, Pt500, Pt1000, Ni100, Ni1000) and transducers with a 0/4‑20mA current output,

◦ 4 x I, four inputs for interaction with 0/4‑20mA transducers only,

◦ 3 x I/PULS, three inputs intended for connection of transducers with a 0/4‑20mA current output or with a pulse output (range 0.001Hz … 10kHz).

● 4 semiconducting output relays: alarm and control functions, operation in pulse output mode with fixed pulse weight.

● 1 or 2 optional 4-20mA analog outputs.

● Ports:

◦ RS485 port: ASCII or MODBUS RTU protocol ,

◦ Ethernet port: Modbus TCP protocol, Web server.

● Advanced recording function allows storage of measurement results in the internal 2GB data memory

◦ USB port for transferring data to and from the computer,

◦ data are saved in a text file, secured with an encrypted checksum and stored in the 2GB internal memory.

● 8 additional channels: measurement of additional quantities or calculations.

● Colour graphic LCD TFT display.

Application:

● Measuring and calculating the consumption of steam and water in balancing systems.

● Measuring the compensated flow of process gases and other liquid media (glycol, chilled water).

● Measuring dispersed points with the option to operate in computer systems.

● Measuring with recording of results and local readout of results, or periodic readout of recorded data using a USB mass storage device.
