Our FCI Series of multipoint thermal flow meters are the perfect solution for process and plant engineers responsible for optimising combustion or pre-heated air to large boilers, stack environmental emissions monitoring and reporting (U.S. EPA CEMS), or flue gas/scrubber balancing.

Designed specifically for flow measurement in round pipes or stacks of 300 mm and larger diameter, and square or rectangular ducts with cross sectional area of 2500mm and larger, the model ST102A Flow Meter and the new MT100 Series Flow Meters from Fluid Components International (FCI) provide two to eight non-clogging, no moving parts sensing points that ensure superior accuracy repeatability and reliable operation.

FCI’s advanced multipoint air/gas thermal flow meters combine state-of-the-art electronics technology with application-matched, precision flow sensors and calibration in a rugged package designed for the most demanding plant operating environments. They are also always dual-function, providing both flow rate and temperature of the process.

The multiple FCI thermal dispersion sensors are inserted at various depths within a pipe or duct and their outputs are multiplexed and averaged to produce the flow rate within the process line. Where dual point sensing is sufficient, the ST102A Flow Meter is the ideal solution. In more complex applications such as larger exhaust stacks, the MT100 Series Flow Meter provides up to eight sensors.

Both flow meters are easily installed in a simple insertion tap. In large stacks with platforms, they install in single plane resulting in significant savings in installation costs and maintenance access. These flow meters are direct mass flow measuring, they operate over a wide 100:1 turndown and are compatible in processes operating at up to 454 °C. They have no orifices to clog, and they provide a superior solution in flow streams with moisture, dirty particulates or corrosive aspects.

The best-in-class transmitter available with the ST102A and MT100 features an extensive choice of output options to interface with virtually any DCS, PLC, SCADA, or recorder. Dual, isolated, high-resolution 4-20mA outputs compliant with Namur NE43, HART (Fieldcomm Group™ certified), Foundation Fieldbus (Fieldcomm Group™ certified), Profibus-PA, Modbus, 0-1kHz frequency/pulse and a USB port are all available.

Both meters feature a leading edge, large LCD readout that provides comprehensive process information with both analogue and digital displays of flow rate, temperature and totalised flow, bar graph and/or digital strip-chart of flow rate, alarm conditions, and instrument health and calibration diagnostics. They also include a user programmable data logger that records flow rate, temperature, and totalised flow as well as diagnostics results on a removable, 8GB microSD card. The electronics are housed in rugged-duty enclosures for long-life and protection from outdoor elements and with IP ratings from IP64 to IP67.

These meters have been independently tested and verified to meet and comply with IEC safety directives for EMC and LVD, and carry the CE marking. Optionally available for process installations with hazardous, potentially explosive gases and/or dust, they can be ordered with FM/FMc, ATEX or IECEx and other HazEx agency approvals for Division II/Zone 2 or Division I/Zone 2.
