The SFC3000 stream pc from Sussex based mostly Ex-i Move Measurement, is a extremely versatile liquid hydrocarbon and gasoline stream measuring machine able to working in a stand-alone single stream stream measurement system or as a part of a extremely complicated multi-stream system.
It has been designed particularly to fulfill the wants of the liquid hydrocarbon and gasoline measurement markets worldwide.
Nonetheless, the SFC3000 is excess of only a devoted stream pc. It could possibly function on quite a few ranges from a supervisory machine to a standalone stream pc or as a system element. With its contact display VGA show and intensive processing capabilities, mixed with easy to make use of controls and distinctive working software program, it could perform as a whole station supervisor built-in right into a stream pc housing.
Designed particularly to fulfill the wants of the worldwide liquid hydrocarbon and gasoline measurement markets, the SFC3000 is meant to positively contribute to each administration and conservation of the world’s dwindling power sources by offering each versatile and correct measurement and incorporating state-of-the-art designs and parts.
The SFC3000 stream pc ought to be thought-about the “brains” of a stream measurement system and requires quite a few peripheral parts to take measurements. In its easiest type, a stream measurement system will include:
- An SFC3000 stream pc with 1 I/O possibility board
- A stream meter (turbine, ultrasonic, differential strain or Coriolis)
- A strain sensor (HART or 4-20mA)
- A temperature sensor (Hart, 4-20mA or PT100 Platinum Resistance Thermometer).
Be aware: strain and temperature sensors aren’t wanted with a Coriolis stream meter, and extra strain sensors are required for a differential strain meter.
Turbine, ultrasonic and Coriolis stream meters will be linked utilizing a pulse enter, both as a single or twin pulse prepare. Alternatively, ultrasonic and Coriolis stream meters will be linked by way of the RS232/485 serial port accessible on every of the IO possibility boards.
Extra performance will be added to a primary system together with optionally available I/O boards. With the addition of a communication board knowledge will be obtained from a gasoline chromatograph or different sources by way of the serial or ethernet ports. Move measurement knowledge can be handed to different methods, such printers or DCS, by way of the communication board ports. Logged knowledge will be saved internally or in an optionally available SD card. A density measurement cell will be linked to a pulse or 4-20mA enter.
SFC3000 stream pc key options:
- Measurement conforming to AGA, ISO, API requirements of: dry and moist pure gasoline, hydrocarbon liquids, different gases e.g. nitrogen, different liquids e.g. water.
- NMi Certificates to: WELMEC 7.2 and eight.8, OIML R117, MID 2014/32/EU
- Normal Options: standalone stream computing perform, stream computing mixed with supervisory perform, as much as 2 G-byte extra reminiscence for Alarm, Audit and Information Logging, optionally available SD card required.
- Meter varieties: pulse producing stream meters, commonest ultrasonic stream meters, dp transmitters with orifice or venturi measurements
- Configurable Show: system diagrams, Trending and graphical shows, Language choices, Interfaces to most sorts of metering tools and all fashionable GC’s, Straightforward Set up and interfacing
- Supervisory Options, Alarm/Occasion/Information Logging and Recording, Printer Report Era, System Diagram Show, Community Communication, Station Controller Features, Valve Management and Distant Operation.
- Upkeep Features: stream summation, pid/sampler features, stream pc specification.
The SFC3000 is packaged in an business Normal Half Width 3U Excessive 19” rack building appropriate for panel or chassis mount. It could possibly accommodate as much as 6 person plug-in playing cards and as much as 5 measurement streams in the identical chassis. Working temperature ranges; PRT Inputs, -10°C to 55°C (15°F to 130°F), Hart® and 4-20mA Inputs -25°C to 55°C (-15°F to 130°F). Working humidity to 90% non-condensing and meets environmental lessons M2/E2.
The way forward for gasoline and liquid measurement and stream management innovates by way of a steady technique of evolution. As main stream pc producers, Ex-i Move Measurement specialises in researching, creating and manufacturing merchandise for the gasoline and liquid measurement business, with a give attention to steady challenge improvement and enhancement. EX-i supply clients market main efficiency, high quality, reliability, value and response.
