RS Hydro has recently won a contract to supply and install various flowmeters for the measurement of sludge with very high solid content on an industrial application within the U.K. Field engineers attended site and concluded that the Nivus OCM EM and Siemens 911/E would be the most suitable flowmetering equipment.
The complete flowmeter is comprised of the flow sensor and the corresponding transmitter. In this application, RS Hydro selected the TransMag 2 Remote Version for the benefits of its 16-bit microprocessor-based transmitter with alphanumeric display; automatic recognition; and simple menu operation.
These flowmeters will be installed alongside the Nivus OCM EM. This is a flexible flowmeter, which can be used on pipes or open channels to measure depth, velocity and flow. In this instance the pipes are partially full and open-ended so the OCM EM is a sound choice. It is reliable and can work continuously in sanitary, storm sewers or open channels. This dependability and adaptability make the Nivus OCM EM an ideal flow meter for such an effluent discharge application. The flowmeters will all be above ground and so the use of vandal-resistant bollards ensures that the equipment is protected from damage.
