With predictive diagnostics to anticipate and prevent abnormal process conditions, this installation-ready wireless flow solution ensures seamless operations. Additionally, its ultra flow measures percent-of-reading performance over 14:1 flow turndown, ensuring accuracy across a wide range of flow rates. Backed by a 15-year stability and warranty, and compatible with various protocols including Modbus®, HART®, WirelessHART®, and FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus, the Rosemount 9195 Wedge Flow Meter sets a new standard for flow measurement excellence.
Flowmeter Construction
Flexibility is at the core of the Rosemount 9195, with three sensor/transmitter connection styles catering to diverse application needs. From compact designs addressing plugging concerns to traditional flanged setups for flushing rings and valve assemblies, and threaded configurations ideal for erosion-prone environments, the meter adapts effortlessly to any setting.
To further streamline operations, optional application packages tailored to specific needs — including standard, abrasive, ultra-high process temperature, cold environment, and remote mount — are available. With line sizes ranging from 2-inch to 8-inch (50 to 200 millimeters) and compliant with ASME B31.3 and CRN safety standards, the Rosemount 9195 Wedge Flow Meter sets a new benchmark in flow measurement technology, promising reliability, accuracy, and adaptability for the industries of tomorrow.
Straight Pipe Requirements
The necessity of straight pipe requirements for wedge meters stems from their fundamental reliance on DP type transmitters. Ensuring optimal performance, the design of wedge elements adheres to ISO 5167-6 (2022) standards.
The wedge element’s unique construction eliminates small passages prone to plugging and enhances abrasion resistance, thanks to its shallow approach angle. This design innovation ensures accurate measurement of highly viscous liquids, even at low Reynolds numbers, offering a linear response crucial for process control. Operating within a temperature range of -40 to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 to 538 degrees Celsius), the meter is further enhanced with Emerson’s Rosemount 3051S Thermal Range Expander, eliminating the need for heat tracing.
