Fluidwell launches the E126 Explosion-Proof Flow Computer

04 September 2018

Fluidwell introduces the E126 explosion-proof flow computer for corrected gas and liquid volume measurement. It measures the actual flow, temperature and pressure and converts it with an ideal gas formula to gas volume at reference conditions. It saves time, money and hassle; is designed to withstand the toughest conditions and is simple to use.

Unequalled safety and ease of use

Daily operations and plant operations for running work permit procedures are no longer interrupted and even (partial) plant shutdowns can be avoided as the covers do not need to be opened to operate, set and modify the display functionalities thanks to the through-glass keypad. This unequalled flow computer delivers user-friendliness in the toughest conditions.

Above and beyond requirements

Housing
The robust stainless steel 316L E-Series housing is designed to guarantee safety. It takes the E126 flow computer beyond the legislative requirements for hazardous areas. In the harshest conditions of punishing weather, desert and maritime climates and extreme temperature fluctuations, the durable E-Series consistently delivers accurate measurements. A solid die cast aluminum housing with the same ingress protection rating is available for cost-effective applications.

Operating
The E126 is extremely practical in use. The through-glass keypad enables safe and effortless operation of all functionalities without having to open the cover. The menu, display and navigation structure are designed according to the Fluidwell “Know one, know them all” principle, which enhances easy and intuitive control of various Fluidwell totalizers, flow computers and other displays.

Advantages
* Saves time and improves flexibility with the through-glass keypad: no need to open the front cover
* Familiar easy operation with the Fluidwell "Know one, know them all" configuration structure, saving time, cost and aggravation.
* Easy installation in spacious chamber and plug & play connectors.
* Reduces costs with the easy to install 1” NPT thread for direct flow meter mounting.
* Durable high-grade stainless steel 316L Ex d enclosure withstanding extreme (maritime) conditions.
* Key information at a glance: flow rate, total, temperature, pressure, measuring units and a flow rate indicating speedometer.
