en.Wedoany.com Reported - Emerson (USA) has launched the new Flexim™ FLUXUS 631 series of portable, non-invasive clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters, which provide flexible, accurate, and reliable measurement of liquids, gases, and steam without interrupting operations. Designed for demanding industrial and municipal applications in industries such as oil and gas, chemical, power, food and beverage, water and wastewater treatment, metals and mining, and life sciences, this series aims to help users improve maintenance and energy efficiency, as well as enhance overall plant performance.
As the flagship model in Emerson's portable flow measurement portfolio, the 631 series delivers high-precision flow measurement in scenarios where permanent instruments cannot be installed. By eliminating measurement blind spots and avoiding unplanned downtime, the series helps maintain operational continuity. Users can also independently verify existing flow installations and evaluate the real performance of pumps, compressors, and other equipment under actual operating conditions, thereby accelerating decision-making processes and improving operational outcomes. The product is easy to deploy for temporary on-demand measurements and enhances condition monitoring, leak detection, and energy efficiency analysis, providing plant-wide transparency.
The 631 series offers a consistent and intuitive user experience, with liquid measurement setup achievable within five minutes. Its optimized human-machine interface features a large integrated display that shows installation graphics, real-time values, and trend visualization content, simplifying field operations. The high-capacity lithium-ion battery supports over 25 hours of autonomous operation, and a low-power mode extends runtime up to 80 days for long-term monitoring applications.
The series features a rugged IP65 and IP67 rated enclosure, suitable for harsh environments. An integrated advanced compensation mechanism enables precise measurement in disturbed flow conditions, maintaining performance even in confined installations with limited straight pipe runs. Multiple models are available to cover flow measurement needs for liquids, gases, cryogenic and high-temperature steam, as well as thermal energy.
Different measurement principles combined with advanced electronics enable accurate and repeatable measurements across a wide range of media types and demanding applications, including low-pressure gases, liquids with entrained gas or solids, high-viscosity liquids, saturated steam, and high-temperature steam. Integrated dynamic gas metering ensures reliable flow measurement even when gas composition changes, while determining gas density and concentration without using a chromatograph.
The 631 series offers dual measurement channels and an ultra-fast update rate of up to 20 milliseconds. Connectivity options include Modbus® RTU, digital and current outputs, and a USB interface for data transfer and configuration, ensuring seamless integration into existing workflows.
