FAQ's of MTF 600-Insertion Thermal mass Flow Meter:
Q: How is the MTF 600-Insertion Thermal Mass Flow Meter installed in existing pipelines?
A: The MTF 600 is designed for hot-tapped insertion, allowing it to be installed directly into operational pipelines without process shutdown. Appropriate threaded connections (M12 or M16) are used depending on pipe diameter.
Q: What gases can be measured using this flow meter and are there any restrictions?
A: The flow meter is compatible with a wide variety of gases, excluding acetylene. It is optimized for any thermally conductive gas, making it suitable for many industrial applications.
Q: When should I use the remote transmitter option instead of the integral type?
A: The remote transmitter is ideal for installations where the measurement location is difficult to access or in harsh environments where the electronic components need to be kept away from heat, vibration, or radiation.
Q: Where can the MTF 600 flow meter be used?
A: Thanks to its IP65 enclosure and operating temperature range of -40C to 200C, it can be used in outdoor as well as demanding industrial environments requiring accurate gas flow monitoring.
Q: What is the process for connecting the meter to a control system?
A: The meter provides both analog (4-20 mA) and digital (RS485 Modbus) outputs for integration. Following the wiring instructions, these outputs can be connected to a PLC or DCS for real-time monitoring and control.
Q: How does the MTF 600 benefit users in terms of energy management and process efficiency?
A: By offering precise mass flow measurement and a high turndown ratio (100:1), the MTF 600 supports optimal energy usage, reduces operational costs, and ensures process reliability, contributing to overall efficiency improvements.
Q: What types of alarms and outputs are available for monitoring?
A: The device includes 1-2 relay NO alarm outputs (5A, 30VDC), along with analog and pulse outputs. These alarms can be configured for critical alerts such as high or low flow conditions, enhancing process safety.
