The ST98L in-line mass flowmeter from Fluid Components International (FCI) is designed to measure virtually any air or gas mixture in small process line sizes from 1 to 2 inches (25mm to 50mm). The flowmeter comes in two different flow element styles that are application-specific:
- The –F style element, for applications in dry, clean air/gases with fluid temperatures up to 350ºF (177ºC), incorporates FCI’s unique equal mass sensor in smaller diameter thermowells for faster response time and improved repeatability in processes with dynamic temperature swings.
- The –S style flow element, for applications involving dirty or erosive fluids, high moisture content gas or a pulsating flow, features more robust, thicker wall thermowells and an unshrouded equal mass sensor element that provides a noise-filtered response, extended erosion resistance and easier cleaning.
