Panametrics Ultrasonic Flare Gas Mass Flowmeter Transmitter DigitalFlow XGF868i

Description
The DigitalFlow XGF868i from Panametrics is a compact and explosion-proof/flam e-proof transmitter version of the Panametrics DigitalFlow GF868 flare gas mass flow meter. The DigitalFlow XGF868 is ideally suited for offshore installations with harsh environments and limited space, but can be applied downstream in refineries and petrochemical plants where Zone 1 is required. Features Measures velocity, volumetric and mass flow Independent of gas composition Measures instantaneous average molecular weight High velocity range to 120 m/s (394 ft/s) Accurate low flow rate measurement 4000 to 1 turndown ratio One or two path configurations Allows cross flow immunity in large pipes Minimal maintenance due to no moving parts, no holes or tubes, and tolerance to dirty or wet conditions No pressure drop Field-proven installation techniques Easy serviceability Applications The DigitalFlow XGF868i flowmeter is a complete ultrasonic flow metering system for: Flare gas − Track down or prevent losses from leakage with positive material identification − Account for total plant throughput of material − Reduce cost of steam usage with proportional control − Conserve energy by eliminating unnecessary flaring − Comply with government regulations for pollution control Vent gas Hydrocarbon gases Biogases Digester gases

Datasheet Summary
Powered by GS/AI

The DigitalFlow XGF868i is an ultrasonic flare gas mass flowmeter transmitter designed for high-performance measurement in challenging environments. It utilizes the Correlation Transit-Time technique, allowing it to measure velocity, volumetric, and mass flow rates accurately across a wide range of conditions, from 0.1 to 394 ft/s (0.03 to 120 m/s). The device is independent of gas composition and features a turndown ratio of 4000 to 1, making it suitable for both low and high flow scenarios.

This flowmeter is constructed with no moving parts, which minimizes maintenance requirements and enhances reliability in dirty or wet conditions. It can be installed up to 1,000 ft (300 m) from the transducers, facilitating flexible installation options. The XGF868i is also capable of measuring the net heating value (NHV) of flare gas, aiding in combustion efficiency and emissions reduction.

The product is particularly well-suited for applications in oil and gas, energy, and chemical processing industries, where compliance with environmental regulations and efficient flare management are critical. Its compact, explosion-proof housing makes it ideal for offshore installations and other hazardous environments.
