Optimize Flow Profile For Best Accuracy
FlowTrak™
- Creates uniform flow profile at economical price
- Maximizes flow measurement accuracy in constrained piping environments
- Reduce upstream and downstream diameters
- Proven Dual-Plate technology
Overview
FlowTrak is an economical solution to problems associated with monitoring flow installations where long, straight runs of piping are not available. Extensive scientific testing since the 1990s has demonstrated that this device virtually eliminates the effect of piping conditions with fewer upstream diameters than any other flow conditioning technique. And its simplicity means it is a fraction of the cost of more complex solutions on the market.
The FlowTrak conditioner:
- Creates a uniform velocity profile by means of two stainless-steel, perforated elements with specific upstream and downstream spacing, perforation size and distribution
- Eliminates velocity profile distortions, swirl and temperature stratification in the flow stream
- Provides convenience and cost savings to install any gas flow meter in tough flow profile applications
Sierra welds a FlowTrak conditioner into every inline thermal mass flow meter it sells.
