The Solimotion FTR16 is an ultra-compact flow indicator for efficient and reliable monitoring of pneumatic and mechanical transport processes of bulk solids. It can also be used in difficult-to-access or confined installation conditions. For non-metallic container materials, measurement from the outside is possible.
The Solimotion FTR16 is ideally suited for the monitoring of mass flow rates and can be used wherever a bulk material movement has to be monitored cost-effectively. The individual adaptation to the application is carried out with the help of parameterizable functions. The device can be used in multiple industries like primaries, energy and food.
Benefits
Non-contact measuring principle - detection almost independent of process properties
High security - permanent self-diagnosis and full self-test
First flow indicator for bulk solids with IP69 protection classification
Messer produces hydrogen in a steam reformer. The facility has a large number of protection and safety devices where pressure values play an important role.
The Egyptian government is working to replace liquid fuels with natural gas. To achieve this they targeted increasing the number of CNG stations in their country from 306 to 1000 by the end of 2021.
