An internal flow computer uses an algorithm based on differential pressure between 2 points in the flow meter body, static pressure and temperature to calculate the flow rate in g/s or kg/hr.
The built-in display shows this calculated flow rate, static pressure (bar) or temperature (ºC). The included Modbus output also makes flow, pressure and temperature values available externally, with the flow rate also available via a 4...20mA output.
In tank loading applications, the pressure drop across HCH2 flow meters is significantly less than that of other technologies by up to 20 to 30 times. This creates a much lower temperature rise in the hydrogen in these circumstances, meaning loading can take longer at higher flow rates, drastically cutting the loading time and increasing throughput.
