Product Description

The Flexim FLUXUS Cryo non-intrusive ultrasonic flow meter is ideally suited to cover the highest flow rates of loading / off-loading processes as well as very low flow rates at when lines start or stop. Capable to perform in various LNG and other cryogenic applications at temperatures down to -328 °C: from 3" lines in peak shaving plants to 36" pipes for tanker off-loading to storage tanks. These non-intrusive ultrasonic flow meters provide the ideal solution for all cases where reliable and trouble-free flow measurement of cryogenic fluids is required. With its huge measurement range FLUXUS Cryo is ideally suited to cover the highest flow rates of loading / off-loading processes as well as very low flow rates at when lines start or stop.

Features

  • Highly reliable:
    Maintenance-free. No moving or vibrating parts
    Dual-beam redundant measurements
  • Operationally safe: No gaskets, No leakage points
  • Economic:
    No pipework modification necessary
    One-man-installation without the need for lifting gear
    No pressure loss - no chance for flashing
  • Advantages in Retrofit Applications:
    No pipework necessary
    No lifting gear required - independent of pipe size
    FLUXUS Cryo can be mounted at limited space conditions, e.g. at FLNG loading arms
    Installation is done within a few hours when the pipe is not cooled down
    The measuring system is fully integrated into the insulation
  • Advantages in New Plants:
    Highly cost-effective - only standard piping needs to be planned - FLUXUS Cryo fits
    Late design changes aren‘t a problem! One equipment type fits many pipe sizes
    No pressure-loss and thus no energy loss
    No risk of flashing
    Significantly reduced CAPEX, especially for large diameters
    Global installation and support by Flexim
