Krohne has introduced the Optisonic 3400 ultrasonic flowmeter for liquids. The 3-beam inline flowmeter is a multipurpose device that can be used for both standard and more demanding applications in terms of process temperature, pressure or viscosity. Target industries include oil and gas, petrochemical and chemical, as well as energy and utility applications.
Being an ultrasonic flowmeter, the Optisonic 3400 offers bi-directional flow measurement independent of conductivity, temperature, density or pressure of the medium. It is based on the transit time method and has three parallel acoustic/ultrasonic beams. They generate a measurement independent of flow profile to deliver accuracy also under less favourable flow profile conditions, e.g. short inlets and outlets. To suit a broad range of applications, the temperature range extends from -200 to 250°C.
Optisonic 3400 features a new signal converter that enables single or multi-liquid applications with the same device. It includes a new user-friendly human machine interface with both push buttons and optical buttons. To simplify set-up and operation, the flowmeter complies to the general device concept of Krohne that provides the same operating concept for flow, level and analysis converters. UFC 400 provides multiple communication options e.g. HART, Foundation Fieldbus, Profibus PA, Modbus and various I/O selections. It also features enhanced diagnostic and status indications according to Namur NE 107.
