Enhancing Process Efficiency and Control
Flow measurement is a critical consideration in industrial processes. If your industrial process involves monitoring the rate of fluid or gas movement within a system, you need to be able to trust your flow measurement equipment.
Precise flow measurement is essential for a wide range of industries. This can include oil and gas, water treatment, food processing, and pharmaceuticals. Within these industries, flow measurement impacts process efficiency, product quality, and resource optimization. In many facilities, accurate measurement and monitoring of these processes is necessary for long-term success.
At Cross Process Solutions, we offer a comprehensive range of flow measurement instrumentation that ensures precise and reliable flow monitoring, allowing businesses to enhance their process control and overall productivity.
At Cross, we offer a wide range of differential pressure flow meters that measure flow rates through the creation of a pressure drop across a flow element. These ensure efficient process control and reliable data for critical applications.
The Cross service team brings a clamp-on portable flow meter and uses it to measure the flow at the same location as the fixed flow meter. We use NIST-traceable field calibrators to ensure the accuracy of our results and enter the data into asset management software to track all your equipment.
With magnetic flow meters, process operations can accurately measure the flow rate of conductive fluids. These non-intrusive meters are unaffected by fluid properties and offer exceptional reliability.
Oval flow meters are widely used in industries requiring accurate flow measurements of low-viscosity liquids. These meters are able to offer high accuracy and durability, making them suitable for applications in oil, gas, chemicals, and power generation.
Propeller flow meters are designed to measure the flow rates of liquids with low viscosity. This makes them ideal for applications such as irrigation, water distribution, and wastewater treatment.
Thermal mass flow meters are ideal tools for measuring gas flows and performing mass flow measurement without the need for pressure or temperature compensation. They are widely used in the semiconductor, pharma, and petrochemical industries.
Turbine flow meters are widely used in industries requiring accurate flow measurements of low-viscosity liquids. These meters are able to offer high accuracy and durability, making them suitable for applications in oil, gas, chemicals, and power generation.
If you’re looking for non-intrusive flow measurement, our ultrasonic flow meters can be a versatile solution fit for a wide range of industries. They are ideal for applications involving clean or dirty liquids, meaning they can be used in water utilities, municipal, HVAC, and much more.
Variable area flow meters operate on the principle of fluid displacement. This means they’re highly used in gas and liquid applications. These flow meters provide simplicity, reliability, and ease of installation.
Vortex flow meters from Cross offer precise and stable flow measurements, making them suitable for a range of steam, gas, and liquid applications. These flow meters are also extremely resilient to vibration, making them ideal for many industrial environments.
Cross Company offers expertise in water, and BTU energy metering for a wide variety of sectors including; large and small commercial complexes, industrial, government and university campuses, healthcare, real estate, and more.
Applications of Flow Measurement Instruments
There are many different industries that require reliable flow measurement instruments. For instance, flow measurement is a necessary parameter in the oil and gas industry for well testing, custody transfer, and flow assurance. Being able to accurately measure flow ensures proper allocation and efficient production. This is also true for water treatment, where wastewater distribution and the treatment process must be monitored effectively.
Within pharmaceutical manufacturing and food & beverage processing, flow measurement instrumentation is used to control ingredient dosing, batch mixing, and quality control. On a broader scale, this also applies to chemical processing, where it’s critical to control the flow of raw materials and monitor reactions.
The bottom line is that if you’re working in a process facility, no matter your specific industry or market, flow measurement needs to be a consideration.
