Honeywell has released its newest ultrasonic flowmeter, designed to help natural gas producers improve efficiency by more accurately tracking the movement of gas through pipelines. The USM GT400 Ultrasonic Flowmeter helps to reduce the amount of effort needed to maintain pipeline metering, which is especially critical today given the skills shortage many oil and gas companies are facing as veteran engineers retire.

Honeywell flowmeters are currently used in thousands of installations worldwide to measure the volume of gas across the supply and value chain. The USM GT400 measures the volume of natural gas at every stage of its movement, storage and utilisation, which is important because the volume of gas transported via pipelines to consumers is metered for billing purposes.

麻豆传媒映画淎s the natural gas industry continues expanding, companies have a tighter margin of error when it comes to lowering operating and capital costs, improving uptime and reducing risks,麻豆传媒映画� said Tony Tielen, Vice President of Honeywell Process Solutions麻豆传媒映画� Engineered Field Solutions division. 麻豆传媒映画淎ccuracy is the key to staying within those margins, and the USM GT400 uses a unique blend of multi-path measuring technology, field-proven electronics, sophisticated diagnostics and a user-friendly interface to achieve true metering intelligence.麻豆传媒映画�

Compliant with CEESmaRT鈩� technology 麻豆传媒映画� a secure, cloud-based solution for condition-based monitoring 麻豆传媒映画� the USM GT400 provides stability during flow perturbations thanks to its direct-path technology with six measuring paths on three levels. The paths are arrayed in an 麻豆传媒映画淴麻豆传媒映画� pattern in horizontal planes. This orientation enables measurement of swirl, cross-flow and asymmetry, as well as transparent path velocity weighting per the Gauss-Chebyshev profile model for compressible fluids.

The USM麻豆传媒映画檚 electronics are used to handle path-specific measurements while optimizing internal diagnostics. It includes speed of sound (SoS) and flow velocity calculations, signal processing and data storage capabilities and can interface to flow computers, gas chromatographs and SCADA systems. The meter麻豆传媒映画檚 transducer 麻豆传媒映画� which operates at standard frequencies of 120 or 200 kHz, and alternate frequencies are available for noisy environments 麻豆传媒映画� consists of piezoelectric crystals fully encapsulated in titanium housing for resistance to dirt. This unique configuration is field-replaceable under pressure.

Regulator noise has marginal impact on the flowmeter麻豆传媒映画檚 measurements, thanks to Honeywell麻豆传媒映画檚 proprietary, MID-approved detection algorithm, coupled with the unique transducer design. This combination extends signal amplitude for a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) versus traditional intrinsically safe transducers. Additionally, Honeywell麻豆传媒映画檚 patented 麻豆传媒映画渓ive麻豆传媒映画� Precision Adjustment maintains the measurement accuracy of the meter at all times.

Windows鈩� based RMGView^USM software allows manufacturers to monitor the health of the flowmeter, alerts users to upset conditions and provides diagnostics for alarming. It also allows direct access to the electronic measuring system via a PC to read out and change parameters, represent measured values and create test certificates and data sheets.
