PanaFlow LC: Ultrasonic Clamp-On Liquid Flow Meter for Process Applications
The PanaFlow LC is the next-generation permanent clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter designed for process applications, leveraging advanced signal processing and superior performance. Building upon the legacy of the Digital Flow XMT868, this cutting-edge meter enhances flow measurement accuracy, efficiency, and reliability while maintaining Panametrics’ industry-leading non-intrusive technology.
With its next-generation XMT1000 transmitter, the PanaFlow LC provides high-precision flow measurement for a wide range of industrial liquids, ensuring seamless integration with existing infrastructure. The clamp-on design eliminates the need for process shutdowns, making it a cost-effective and low-maintenance solution for critical operations.
Key Features:
- Non-Intrusive, Clamp-On Installation – Easily mounts onto the outside of the pipe, avoiding costly process disruptions, pipe modifications, or fluid contamination.
- Next-Generation XMT1000 Transmitter – Offers faster signal processing, enhanced diagnostics, and improved accuracy over its predecessor, the XMT868i.
- Versatile Measurement Capabilities – Supports 1, 2, or 3 path measurements, ensuring high accuracy across various flow conditions and fluid types.
- Advanced Digital Communication – Features HART 7.0, Modbus, and Foundation Fieldbus protocols for seamless system integration.
- Automatic Tracking Window™ (ATW™) – Ensures reliable measurements by dynamically adjusting to fluid property variations.
- Hazardous Area Certified – Suitable for explosion-proof and flameproof environments, meeting global safety standards.
- Broad Fluid Compatibility – Ideal for measuring hydrocarbons, crude oil, lubricating oils, refined hydrocarbons, solvents, chemicals, water, seawater, and more.
