Complementary Flowcontrol Solutions

28 Jun 2021  |
Liquid flowmeasurement is interesting, but it’s often just half the solution. Most applications which require a flowmeter are using the flowmeasurement to control the process.

Flowmeister strives to deliver maximum value to you. A good example of such value is the trust you experience when your process is running well under a steady flowcontrol solution.

In the land of good solutions, there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’

The capability of a specific solution is determinded by technical, functional and financial requirements. Flowmeister recognizes these  various market-expectations and has translated them into two concepts. Both concepts use the analogue 4-20mA Flowmax® signal and apply their PID-settings and intelligence to establish control. Where one concept gives a feedback to the pump, the other concept uses the flowsignal to feed forward to a controlling valve.

Flowmeister is glad to introduce you to two experts in flowcontrol, serving different markets.

Johannes Schakel, www.flow-connect.eu summarizes:

Flow-Connect is designed to work with many different types of pumps and flowmeters, such as Flowmax® series. Most favoured by our users is the ease of adding sensors like pressure, temperature or PH to the controller in a true plug-and-play handling. The fast and easy “PID autotune function” makes Flow-Connect ideal for laboratories and R&D environments were pumps and sensors are often changed.

Armand Bergsma, managing director of Pressure Control Solutions & Northwestern European distributor of Equilibar, LLC, states:

“The MIB flow meters supplied by Flowmeister are suitable for use in applications with very specific requirements, just like our precision pressure control products. MIB’s flow sensor can be combined with an Equilibar ® dome loaded valve creating closed-loop flow control. PCS specializes in the design and engineering of tailor-made process control solutions. For flow control, we combine Equilibar® valves with other carefully selected high-quality components to convert a flow sensor into a flow controller. Equilibar valves are suitable here, because the Cv range matches the properties of the MIB flow sensor.”

Versatility gives a broad installed base

Last but not least comes the versatility of both solutions adds Martin Deutscher, www.MIB-GmbH.com

A good control needs reliable measurements. Flowmax® uses fast ultrasonic technology and processes 250 measurements each second, making it highly capable for fluctuating flowconditions.
The instruments have no moving parts and only one wetted part which is free of gaps or dead spaces.
The engineering plastics we use, provide instruments with high chemical resistance.
Certified PP UTG material can be chosen to provide maximum patient-safety.

Functionality, reliability and ease-of-use are guaranteed over the whole industry, from High Tech Equipment Manufacturing and (Flow)Chemistry up to Single Use applications in sensitive pharmaceutical processes.
The solutions currently operate in a range from 10 ml/minute up to 900 l/minute.

Are you in need of control?
