Flow computer.

Designed specifically to meet the needs of the liquid hydrocarbon and gas measurement markets.

Designed specifically to meet the needs of the worldwide liquid hydrocarbon and gas measurement markets The highly versatile SFC3000 flow computer from Ex-i Flow Measurement Ltd,. is capable of measuring the flow rate of liquid hydrocarbons, water and petrochemical gasses as well as making Co2 emission measurements for pollution monitoring and control. Connected to turbine meters the SCF3000 provides accurate measuring of gas flow in networks simplifying billing for suppliers and can be used to monitor network flow load to ensure reliability of supply and maintain energy supply security.

The SCF3000 is flexible measuring system which can be configured to meet a wide range of applications and may be operated in a stand-alone single stream flow measurement system or as part of a highly complex multi-stream system. Simple firmware updates ensure the SCF3000 meets the latest measuring standards.

It can operate in a number of ways, such as a standalone flow computer, a supervisory device or as a component of a complex system. Ex~I Flow offer a private labelling service for the SCF3000 for the convenience of Systems Integrators.

Featuring a touch screen VGA display and extensive processing capabilities combined with simple to use controls and unique operating software, The SFC3000 can function as a complete station supervisor integrated into a flow computer housing.

The SFC3000 flow computer is the hub of a flow measurement system and requires a number of peripheral components to take measurements. In its simplest form, a flow measurement system will consist of:

• An SFC3000 flow computer with 1 I/O option board
• A flow meter (turbine, ultrasonic, differential pressure or Coriolis)
• A pressure sensor (HART or 4-20mA)
• A temperature sensor (Hart, 4-20mA or PT100 Platinum Resistance Thermometer).

It should be noted that pressure and temperature sensors are not needed with a Coriolis flow meter, and additional pressure sensors are required for a differential pressure meter.

Turbine, ultrasonic and Coriolis flow meters can be connected using a pulse input, either as a single or dual pulse train. Alternatively, ultrasonic and Coriolis flow meters can be connected via the RS232/485 serial port available on each of the IO option boards. Additional functionality can be added to a basic system including optional I/O boards. With the addition of a communication board data can be obtained from a gas chromatograph or other sources via the serial or ethernet ports. Flow measurement data can also be passed to other systems, such printers or DCS, via the communication board ports. Logged data can be stored internally or in an optional SD card. A density measurement cell can be connected to a pulse or 4-20mA input.

SFC3000 flow computer key features:
