• Advantages of buffers
- Transducers are outside of the extreme
temperatures
- Avoids thermal shock with risk of cracking crystal
- Transducers can be replaced under operations

Flare Gas: Why Measure Ultrasonically?
Conventional technologies all have problems with one or more of
these characteristics of flare gas operation, resulting in inaccuracy,
poor reliability and high cost of ownership.
•FLARE GAS ULTRASONIC METER CAPABILITIES
Variable Flow Rates
Low flow = normal flare The required turn-down ratio and low-end
Moderate flow = inadvertent flare sensitivity exceeds conventional flow
High flow = emergency flare measurement technologies
Variable Composition
Range of hydrocarbons Very wide range of flow rates
H2 to C6 + (typical) Volume flow independent of composition
Corrosive Environment
H2S, HF etc. Materials Compatibility (Ti, Monel,
Liquid dropout Hastelloy)
Low Pressure
No pressure drop
Atmospheric (slightly negative to
slightly positive) No maintenance
Wide Temperature Range
From –190C to 280C overall Wide process temperature range
On-site verification
