LCMass™
Meter - Overview
The LCMass by
Rheonik is a patented Coriolis mass flow meter with unique
construction features that solve the problem of directly
measuring the mass flow of liquids and gases.
 Positive
displacement, electromagnetic, and turbine meters are VOLUMETRIC
meters that measure in volume units. Coriolis mass meters, in
contrast, measure MASS UNITS (weight). Such measurements are
common in many industries including the chemical industry for
weight-based batching and blending.
The LCMass
meters stand apart in industrial applications in these important
areas:
- High
accuracy for low flow applications below the practical
limits of volumetric meters
- High
temperature applications to 660°F
- High-flow
and high-pressure applications
A complete
installation includes an RHM Flow Sensor, and an RHE Remote
Transmitter.
MARKETS:
Specific
markets for LCMass meters include:
- Oil-field
Exploration and Production
- Petroleum
Refinery
- Petrochemical
- CNG
(compressed natural gas)
- Paints
and Coatings
- Pulp
and Paper
- Pharmaceutical
- Food
and Beverage
- Agriculture
- and
More
Ideally Suited
for:
- Very
low-flow "drip flow" applications such as
- laboratory
- scientific
- additive
injection
- batch
- and
others
- Very
high-flow and high pressure applications
APPLICATIONS:
 LCMass
meters can be applied in a broad range of applications, but have
found particular success in the very low flow applications found
in many industrial installations, in the scientific community,
laboratory systems, pilot plants and additive-injection
applications. Similarly these meters are ideally suited for high
temperature, high pressure and/or high flow applications because
of the LCMass's unique construction features.
Typical
application examples include:
- Fast
batching in combination with an electronic batch or process
controller, even for small quantities
- Metering
in combination with high-pressure piston pumps (pulsating
flow)
- Metering
for high-temerature and high-pressure processes (up to 660°F)
- Metering
for very low "drip" flow rates, e.g., 0.004
lbs/min
- Metering
for highly corrosive liquids, e.g., bromine compounds
Regardless of
application, the high accuracy of the device is not
significantly affected by changes in pressure, temperature,
density, viscosity, flow profiles and multiphase fluids.
