RED SEAL MEASUREMENT

HOME OF LIQUID MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS

Neptune brand positive displacement flowmeters, trusted since 1892

in critical industrial processes and all stages of petroleum and LPG

custody transfer, have an established reputation for accuracy and

dependability

NEW EXTENDED WARRANTYON ALL NEPTUNE PD METERS

Red Seal Measurement is proud to offer the Neptune product line. Because we’re confident that our meters are the best in the business, we’re extending the warranty on all of our positive displacement meters to three years from the date of installation (or 42 months from date of shipment).

There are no restrictions on quantity or configuration, and no requirement to buy additional components. We value the trust you’ve placed in our products. Let Neptune meters repay that trust with the peace of mind that guaranteed quality can provide.

TECHNOLOGIES USED BY COMPETITORS

Blocking Rotor

Oval Gear

BLOCKING ROTOR - DISADVANTAGES

» 13 moving parts

» A new base meter is required to replace measuring element

» Remove meter from line to rebuild

» Complicated internal construction with timing gears

» Special tools required

» High pressures can cause product slippage

OVAL GEAR - DISADVANTAGES

» 2 moving gears with two bearings each

» Gears in contact with each other and subject to wear

» Plastic gears wear faster, which lead to damage sooner

» Tight tolerances between gears make meter very susceptible to foreign material, which can cause immediate lockup or gear damage

METERING TECHNOLOGIES USED IN RSM METERS

» Nutating Disc» Oscillating Piston» Coriolis Mass Flow

NUTATING DISC

» Proven accurate and reliable for over a century

» Unaffected by viscosity of flow profile disturbances

» Tolerant of suspended solids that can stall other meter types

» Withstands pressure up to 150 psi and temperature to 250° F

» Works with mechanical or electronic register

OSCILLATING PISTON

» 2 moving parts» Positive displacement meter» Hydraulically floating piston does not

contact the chamber surfaces during operation

» Easily serviceable because its simple construction requires no special knowledge or tools

» Tested under field conditions to optimize design

» Dual case design

OSCILLATING PISTON (CONTINUED)

» Measuring element is replaceable and doesn’t require the meter to be removed from line» Components undergo strengthening treatment to increase durability» Tolerant of low viscosity, abrasive, non-lubricating compressed gas» Nituff coating reduces friction and protects from particulate damage» Works with mechanical and electronic registers

HOW AN OSCILLATING PISTON WORKS

Capillary action maintains seal of

liquid between piston and chamber wall

Groove in skirt bottom retains cushion of liquid to lift piston

Inlet pressure lifts piston, reducing drag

Profiles in the piston top break surface tension to reduce

drag

Hydraulically floating piston does not contact the chamber surfaces

during operation

MEASURING CHAMBER

All components – piston skirt and top, wall cover and floor –

have pressure relief ports

Relationship between piston spindle, roller and diaphragm

prevents contact between skirt and chamber wall

Roller and diaphragm are the only wear

parts

CORIOLIS MASS FLOW METERS

> First introduced in 1978, they are an established technology in process industries.

> Highly accurate flowmeter technology

> Direct mass measurement

> Increased efficiency

> They reduce• Lost product• Lost time• Lost money

WHY MEASURE MASS?

> Volume varies with temperature> Mass is a primary measurement and remains the same

Mass Flowmeter Components

Measurement Coils

Flow Divider

Tubes Drive Coil

CORIOLIS MASS FLOW METER

With no liquid flowing, the drive coil causes the tubes to vibrate parallel to each other (in phase).

MASS FLOW OPERATION

Product flow causes the ends of the tubes to vibrate out of phase. The sensor coils measure this phase difference, allowing calculation of mass.

MASS FLOW OPERATION

MEASUREMENTS AVAILABLE FROM CORIOLIS METERS

The following values may also be obtained from the meter or calculated from other values

» Density

» Fluid Temperature

» Net Volume

» Specific Gravity

» Gross Volume (mass/density)

ACCURATE & CONSISTENT TECHNOLOGY
