Industrial gas flow meters must be rugged, packed with features and options, and ready to measure out of the box. Plant operators must often keep the process gas flow uninterrupted in order to keep production running. Shutting down production is costly and inefficient. Here are some great features of the award-winning industrial gas mass flow meters by Fox Thermal:
Our flow meters make ideal submeters for natural gas or other gas measurement across plant equipment and facilities. Fox Thermal meters have a proven track record for repeatable measurement, outstanding accuracy, and low maintenance costs.
Fox Thermal flow meters for industrial applications help you meet regulatory requirements or ESG goals for reporting emissions. Our meters provide highly accurate measurements, helping to measure flow, detect leaks, track allocation, and report emissions.
Fox Thermal mass flow meters with Gas-SelectX® and CAL-V™ calibration validation make it easy to change gas mixtures and check measurement accuracy in-situ to avoid costs associated with shutdowns for maintenance or recalibration.
The Fox Thermal Model FT1 includes a limited Gas-SelectX® gas selection menu and CAL-V™ calibration validation. It is CE, FM, and FMc approved, along with ATEX and IECEx. Applications include natural gas, nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and more.
Features include:
The Fox Thermal Model FT4A includes the full Gas-SelectX® gas selection menu and CAL-V™ calibration validation. It is CE, FM, and FMc approved, along with ATEX and IECEx. Applications include gas separators, power plants, vapor recovery units, green completions, and more.
Features include:
The Fox Thermal Model FT2A gas flow meter has a large selection of communication protocol options available intrinsically. Options include BACnet MS/TP, RS485 Modbus RTU, Profibus-DP, DeviceNet, or Ethernet Modbus TCP. NEMA 4X approved for hazardous locations.
Features include:
Our thermal gas flow meters work well in any industrial environment. They can be used in various manufacturing and production plants, including the following:
Fox Thermal supplies mass flow meters for a wide range of applications in the industrial sector, including:
In the modern industrial sector, the need to meet emission reduction (ESG) goals, improve efficiency, and reduce downtime is paramount. Flow meters with accurate gas flow measurement capabilities is just the start of meeting these goals. It also requires a meter that is reliable and flexible.
Ensuring your meter runs accurately is easy with CAL-V™ calibration validation. This feature allows quick verification of the original NIST-traceable calibration from the factory. A CAL-V™ test can be run anytime and under process flow conditions and is available on the FT1, FT3, FT4A, and FT4X flow meter models.
The Gas-SelectX® feature, available on Fox Thermal flow meter models FT1, FT4A, and FT4X, allows technicians to program the meter’s gas composition settings while keeping the meter functioning in place and avoiding shutdowns. This reduction in maintenance and shutdown costs improves the overall performance of the site or process.
