Entrained Gas Management (EGM™)
Reliable handling of 2-phase flows with Coriolis mass flowmeters
Challenge
Whether required in the manufacture of aerated products or occurring as an unwanted side-effect, entrained gas in liquid flows often compromises the measuring performance of Coriolis mass flowmeters. With the meters going into stand-by-mode or “freezing” their last readings, process reliability is significantly affected.
Solution
A high level of application safety can be achieved with OPTIMASS Coriolis mass flowmeters featuring Entrained Gas Management (EGM™). Powerful control algorithms allow the flowmeters to maintain operation over a wide range of gas fractions and complex flow conditions, increasing process reliability and plant uptime.
Safety benefits
Increased process reliability in the event of air or gas entrainments in liquids
EGM™ for OPTIMASS Coriolis mass flowmeters to maintain operation over a wide range of gas fractions and complex flow conditions
Reliable detection and indication of 2-phase flows or air/gas entrainments in the process
Increased process safety, even during a complete transition from a pure liquid phase to a gas phase and back
Considerable improvements with plant start-up, shut-down and troubleshooting in the process
No more unplanned shutdowns caused by equipment failure
