Radar level devices have long been recognized as high performance and extremely reliable devices. However, they have often been reserved for the toughest applications or the most stringent requirements due to their cost or their perceived complexity. The latest technology developments now make them also ideal for simple uses where hydrostatic pressure or ultrasonic level meters have been traditionally used.

In this webinar we will explain the technology and then we will show you some applications where the newest devices have improved process operations through better performance and additional information that is available to the operators and technicians.

Key takeaways:

• How FMCW radar works and why it is a great technology for tank level or open channel flow applications

• How to set up or adjust features to quickly adapt to your operations

• A review of Typical applications
  

Coriolis meters have had an immense impact on process industries given their versatility, their outstanding performance and their ruggedness in tough environments.
In this webinar we will explore the basic principles of Coriolis meter operation and how they have be used in various applications and the benefits gained. We will also introduce recent unique developments which are further enhancing industrial process operations by tackling issues such as two-phase or multi-phase flow, clogging, pressure drop, installation restrictions, and erosion or corrosion.

Key Takeaways:

• An overview of the technology and where its benefits have been most impactful

• How multiphase or two phase flowing conditions impact Coriolis meters

• How the meters' operation can be evaluated in the field during operation

Recommended flowmeter installation practices and international standards prescribe a number of straight inlet and outlet lengths to minimize possible disturbances in the fluid flow that might impact the measurement. However, many applications do not have enough space to provide those upstream and downstream runs.

In this webinar we will discuss technical possibilities to realize water metering using electromagnetic flowmeters in limited space applications. Following the technical basics we’ll demonstrate many practical examples and  detail the differences of various flowmeter constructions.

Key Takeaways:

• Understand the importance of a laminar flow through the meter section of electromagnetic flowmeters

• Get an overview of flowmeter types that allow installations without in- and outlet runs (0D/0D applications)

• Learn about the pros and cons of different technical approaches

In this webinar we will explore the additional available process information that is now produced by measurement instruments such as magmeters, Coriolis meters and other flow and level devices.

This additional and often overlooked information can often provide process insights that can result in enhanced operations and a higher degree of process safety. We will discuss the range of information now available, how it can be accessed and some use cases to demonstrate their benefit.

Key Takeaways

• You will learn about the additional process information is available from measurement instruments

• How they work and how you can access the information

• How and why this additional information can be used to enhance process operations

Hydrogen is all over the news lately. It is touted as one of the answers to the planet’s environmental woes since it could potentially be used as an alternative energy source, while reducing greenhouse gases that are largely blamed for climate change.  The headlines make it seem like a brand-new development but the reality is that hydrogen has been a building block resource for countless chemical processes throughout various industries for over a century and it can be produced or blended in many different forms.

In this webinar, we will explore how some of the newer flow measurement technologies have adapted to address some of this low-density fluid’s challenges. Hydrogen is a safety concern, and it can dissipate quickly. It can even affect the materials of the instruments themselves. Join us to learn about solutions to these challenges.

Key Takeaways:

• A brief overview of the hydrogen “color” categories and their production processes

• An introduction to applicable measurement technologies

• A discussion on a few applications, their challenges and the benefits gained

Hydrogen is touted as one of the answers to the planet’s environmental woes since it could potentially be used as an alternative energy source, while reducing greenhouse gases that are contributing to climate change.  As a result, there is growing demand in areas that do not have local production. This demand, in turn, calls for new or updated transportation, storage and distribution networks to fill the need.

In this webinar, we will explore how custody transfer or high precision flow technologies have adapted to this low density fluid’s measurement challenges for these large volume transfer applications.

Key Takeaways:

• A brief overview of the hydrogen measurement challenges

• An introduction to applicable measurement technologies

• A discussion on some applications, their situations and the benefits gained

High-accuracy multi-path ultrasonic flowmeters are widely used for natural gas custody transfer, but their adoption in the liquid hydrocarbon market has been slower. Past issues with compact or ballistic small volume provers have created hesitancy among users. A key challenge had been the poor repeatability of ultrasonic meters when verified with these popular field calibration methods. Now, significant technological and performance advancements enable high-accuracy multi-path liquid hydrocarbon flowmeters to be successfully proven in the field using these popular methods.

In this webinar you will see actual field test results demonstrating their excellent repeatability.

Key Takeaways:

• Understand the challenges of proving newer flowmeter technologies (Coriolis and multi-path ultrasonic) with small volume provers

• Learn about the adaptations made to these flowmeter technologies for successful use with small volume provers

• See field test results demonstrating excellent accuracy and repeatability with a modified, new-generation multi-path liquid flowmeter using a small volume prover and a minimum number of runs/passes.

The webinar will demonstrate how additional electronics that can be used in mechanical variable area flowmeters make the process and work environment safer.

Key Takeaways:

• Discover electronic application diagnostics to increase application reliability and process safety

• Understand intelligent modularity of electronics to support occupational safety

• See how electrical signal outputs can be used in safety instrumented systems (SIL)
