When you purchase an SFC3000 flow computer here is what you will find in the box: The SFC3000 flow computer with option boards and backup battery installed Certificate of Quality that has followed the flow computer through production Print out of production database records, showing options and firmware installed Flow computer power connectors IO Connector […]
The SFC3000 is a very versatile flow computer, capable of operating in a stand-alone single stream flow measurement system, or as part of a highly complex multi-stream system. The flow computer should be considered the “brains” of the flow measurement system and as such, requires a number of peripheral components to take measurements. What are […]
The flow measurement needs of the oil and gas industry are many and varied. Flow computer design must be responsive to these needs if it is to support the industry in all possible applications. While a fully bespoke flow computer would be costly, Ex~i Flow supports powerful, cost-effective solutions using option boards and flexible software […]
The SFC3000 Flow Computer is one component in a system that precisely measures the flow of liquids, steam, or gases. While the computer offers insight into the system’s effectiveness and efficiency, the meters gather the measurements, and the process controls allow for adjustment of the quantities, pressures, and more. In March 2021, BP announced its […]
Whether it is gas measurement or liquid flow measurement, a flow computer is the brain of a system that monitors the efficiency and effectiveness of your business practices. There is a general understanding that a flow computer will only benefit those industries that run massive plants. Here we explore the many uses for a flow […]
