DigitalFlow GS868 - Steam Mass Ultrasonic Flowmeter
The DigitalFlow™ GS868 and XGS868i ultrasonic steam flowmeters solve
the problems of pressure drop and rangeability found in other flowmeters
by reducing operation, installation and maintenance costs. Our line of
steam flow meters are full-featured meter that measure mass flow rate of
saturated and superheated steam over a very wide range of pipe sizes
and flow conditions.
When measuring steam flow rate, pressure drop caused by orifice or
vortex shedding meters robs energy from the steam, reducing the amount
of power and heat delivered to the user. Using the GS868 or XGS868i with
two ultrasonic transducers that do not protrude into the flow stream,
transducer installation is obstructionless, causing no pressure drop and
reducing steam generation costs. No regular maintenance is required
with the new flowmeters, further reducing long-term cost of ownership.
Their titanium transducers have an all-metal boundary and are not
affected by erosion from droplets. They will not fail due to thermal
expansion cycles.
A single GS868 ultrasonic flowmeter can cover a wide range of flows,
giving additional savings. Because of their limited turndown ratios,
conventional meters are used in multiple runs to cover all steam flow
rates during high and low demand periods. Using a single GS868 flowmeter
to cover the full range can result in lower capital and installation
costs.

PanaFlow MV80 - In-line Multivariable Mass Vortex Flowmeter
GE's PanaFlow MV80 in-line multivariable mass vortex flow meter is the
next generation in vortex meters. PanaFlow MV80’s multivariable design
consists of a vortex shedding velocity sensor, an RTD temperature sensor
and a solid state pressure transducer that measures the mass fl ow rate
of steam, gases and liquids.Other meter types use external process
measurements to calculate mass fl ow. The temperature and pressure
devices are typically not installed in the same location as the fl
owmeter. Process conditions can vary greatly between the two locations,
causing inaccurate mass fl ow readings. PanaFlow MV80 measures
velocity,temperature and pressure at the same location, which provides
more accurate process measurement.
