High-Temperature Flow Monitoring
Boiler Water and Steam Non-Intrusive Flow Control
Clamp-on flow meters for boiler water and steam
Power generation is a critical component of mining operations, especially in remote locations, as it drives essential processes like extraction, processing, and machinery operation. With increasing environmental regulations and rising energy costs, it has become even more important to effectively control and monitor energy usage. This not only helps improve energy efficiency but also reduces environmental emissions, ensuring compliance with regulations. Proper monitoring and reporting are necessary for preparing accurate reports for government agencies to meet compliance and avoid penalties. Additionally, measuring boiler water and steam involves high temperatures and the need to prevent supply interruptions. Ultrasonic clamp-on flow meters, designed for high-temperature applications, make this possible.

Product Solutions
The Flexim FLUXUS F731 is a technological breakthrough in the ultrasonic clamp-on volume and mass flow measurement of liquids. Highly sophisticated signal filters, faster than ever processing capacities and advanced measurement algorithms make the FLUXUS F731 ultrasonic clamp-on liquid flow meter the standard-setting measuring solution for any industrial application. With the new Synchronised Channel Averaging (SCA) method and flow profile correction, the F731 ultrasonic flowmeter is ready for the most challenging conditions.
- Accuracy and repeatability - exceptional reliability and accuracy at high and low flows due to matched, calibrated and temperature compensated transducers, advanced signal processing capabilities and diagnostics.
- Easy installation without process interruptions - an externally mounted system means no need for process interruptions or additional engineering costs.
- Maintenance-free - no contact with flowing media results in a completely maintenance- free and durable metering solution to withstand even the harshest environments.

The Flexim FLUXUS G731 ST-HT measures superheated steam up to temperatures of 630 °C (1166 °F) non-intrusively from the outside of the pipe. This unique flow measurement solution is based on the correlation flow measurement principle. The acoustic measuring method has exceptionally high measuring dynamics and functions independently of the flow direction. The FLUXUS G731 ST-HT offers precise bi-directional flow measurement over a turndown ratio of up to 10:1. This innovative flow meter is not in direct contact with the steam and doesn’t have any moving parts, so is not subject to wear and tear, which saves on essential maintenance cost. Its installation can be carried out without interrupting the process, which makes it a highly cost-efficient retrofit solution.
- No pressure loss, no pipe modification, no process interruption.
- High dynamic flow range.
- Easy and cost-efficient retrofit.

The Flexim FLUXUS F601 is measurement ready in 5 minutes and is the portable clamp-on flow meter of choice for servicing and maintenance activities, the control and auditing of measurement points not covered by permanent meters, or even the temporary replacement of permanently installed flow meters.
With its Li-Ion battery, the F601 allows for up to 25 hours of autonomous measurement. Matched and paired transducers, as well as sophisticated algorithms to correctly identify pipe wall echoes and wrong transducer positioning, ensure reliable and highly accurate measurements - even under the most demanding application conditions.
