Flow measurement specialist Krohne, which has locations throughout North America, has introduced a new Optimass 2000 S400 16-inch Coriolis mass flowmeter. According to the company, the large diameter mass flowmeter is ideal for bulk measurement of petroleum and oil, as well as syrup, molasses and raw chemicals. The meter has been approved for custody transfer of liquids and gases.
The meter’s small installation footprint makes it ideal for applications where space is limited, like offshore platforms, or where alterations of existing pipework would otherwise be necessary. The meter is available with NACE-compliant stainless steel measuring tubes, as well as with a Super Duplex option that offers a maximum operating pressure of 180 barg; 2,610 psig. It also features an approved secondary containment option that handles up to 150 barg; 2,175 psig.
