Maxon SMARTLINK® Meter Digital Self-Checking Thermal Mass Flowmeter
Honeywell Maxon's SMARTLINK® Meter is a highly accurate and repeatable mass flowmeter for monitoring fuel and air. The meter uses a constant temperature differential technique with two matched, platinum RTDs in a rugged, stainless probe assembly. One RTD measures fluid temperature; an intelligent bridge circuit heats the second RTD element, maintaining a constant temperature differential above the temperature of the process fluid.
Based on the amount of power delivered to the heated element, the on-board microprocessor establishes a precise mass flow rate. The highly integrated sensor probe and electronic design permits fully automated factory calibration, providing every manufactured unit with out-of-the-box measurement accuracy.
- Displays instantaneous standard rate and totalized flow without calculations
- Advanced temperature compensation extends accuracy over wider ranges of fluid temperatures
- Redundant meter functions provide on-line self-checking to ensure safe operation and fail-safe alarm output
- Monitors, displays, and outputs air/fuel ratio when two meters are electrically “linked” to each other
- In-line flow body uses conditioning screens to reduce straight-run pipe requirements and eliminate installation problems
- Large, convenient local display for ease of use. No PC or other interface necessary for configuration and operation
- Fail-safe alarm, limit and analog outputs for easy integration into PLC or DCS systems
