Flue gas flowmeter IS-14.M
Purpose
Flue gas flowmeter IS-14.M is meant for continuous measurement of the flow rate and discharge of gases emitted by fuel-burning plants operated on any type of fuel.
Advantages
- Contact-free measurements;
- Straight sections of the gas duct before and after installation are not necessary;
- Operation in hot smoke gases up to 1000 °С (special order)
- Operation in severely dusted environments.
Operating principle
The gas flow rate is measured by the method of infrared cross-correlation.
The principle of action is based on an innovative approach to measuring the time of passing a known distance by stable fluctuations (non-homogeneities) of the gas flow temperatures.
