1 Current input option for calculation to standard conditions

2 Process connections

The OPTISONIC 7300 offers an ultrasonic measurement system dedicated for process gas flow
applications. The OPTISONIC 7300 does not have the limitations that are usually associated with
traditional gas flow meters like periodical recalibrations, maintenance, pressure loss and a
limited flow range. The OPTISONIC 7300 combines the advantages of ultrasonic measurement in
a way that it is efficient, reliable and easy to use.

Diagnostics
Important information about both the process and
sensor can be provided by diagnostic values.
Examples are gain for information about pollution in
the sensor, velocity of sound for changes in the gas
composition and signal to noise ratio for changes in
the process.

Calculation to standard conditions

Gas flow is often specified in standard conditions (for
example flow at 0 C and 1 bar a). The gas flow
converter GFC 300 optionally has two current inputs.
If these are used for pressure and temperature
input, the converter can calculate the volume flow to
standard conditions. With the input of standard
density also mass flow can be calculated.

Dedicated to process applications

The OPTISONIC 7300 combines the advantages of
ultrasonic flow measurement (free of maintenance,
no recalibrations, free of obstructions and no moving
parts) with a design that is dedicated for the process
industry. For applications in the process industry
this combination offers the optimum value in both
operational as in investment costs.

Transducer design
With the innovative patented design of the
transducers, the OPTISONIC 7300 offers a superior
application range. This new design allows not only a
larger flow and diameter range, but also an
extended range of gases that can be measured.

1 Sound wave against flow direction

2 Sound wave with flow direction
3 Flow direction

Figure 1-1: Measuring principle

www.krohne.com

Like canoes crossing a river, acoustic signals are transmitted and received along a diagonal
measuring path.
A sound wave going downstream with the flow travels faster than a sound wave going
upstream against the flow.
The difference in transit time is directly proportional to the mean flow velocity of the medium.

www.krohne.com

For exchanging the transducers, please keep a free space of 1 m / 39" around the transducer.

Install the flowsensor in a horizontal position in a slightly descending line.

Orientate the flowsensor such that the path of the acoustic signal is in the horizontal plane.

25

The OPTISONIC 7300 is designed for the measurement dry gasflow. Excess of liquids may
disturb the acoustic signals and should thus be avoided.
The following guidelines should be observed in case occasional small amounts of liquids are to
be expected:

To secure the optimum functioning of the flowmeter, please note the following observations.

3.4 Installation requirements sensor

Allow 1020 cm / 3.97.9" of space at the sides and rear of the signal converter to permit
free air circulation.
Protect signal converter against direct solar radiation, install a sunshield if necessary.
Signal converters installed in switchgear cabinets require adequate cooling, e.g. by fan or
heat exchanger.
Do not expose the signal converter to intense vibration.

3.3 Installation requirements signal converter

The overall functionality of the OPTISONIC 7300 gas flowmeter is the continuous measurement
of actual volume flow, mass flow, molar mass, flow speed, velocity of sound, gain, SNR and
diagnosis value.

To avoid distorted flow profiles and interference caused by valve noise in the sensor, control
valves or pressure reducers should not be installed in the same pipeline as the flowmeter. In
case this is required, please contact the manufacturer.
