BARTON Floco Liquid PD Meter

BARTON Floco Liquid Positive Displacement Meters. These meters are designed for accurate measurement of challenging substances like viscous, waxy, corrosive, and abrasive crude oil and water and oil emulsions with a high level of precision ±1% maximum accuracy. The fact that they operate fully mechanically and independently of external utilities likely makes them cost-effective and portable, which could be advantageous for various applications. The optional attachment for water cut determination and electronic reporting to supervisory systems is an additional useful functionalities. 
 
Specifications
  • Flow 6 to 90 USPM (20m3/hr)
  • Pressure: up to 1480 PSI (10.2 MPa)

 


In addition to its robust construction and reliable performance, the Barton Model 306 Flotrac offers unparalleled accuracy in liquid measurement. With a high turndown ratio and precise flow measurement capabilities, this meter is ideal for applications that demand precise control over fluid quantities, such as in chemical processing, water treatment, and oil and gas production.
 
The Flotrac meter is also highly adaptable, with multiple mounting options that accommodate various installation requirements. Whether used in-line or in a remote configuration, this meter can be easily integrated into existing systems without the need for extensive modifications.
 
Overall, the Barton Model 306 Flotrac is a superior choice for industries that require a rugged, high-performance liquid metering solution. With its innovative design, durable construction, and unparalleled accuracy, the Flotrac meter provides reliable and precise measurement of high-pressure liquids in even the harshest operating environments.

The F500 Series comprises three types: Models F500-1, F500-2, and F500-3, which are Floco Positive Displacement Meters. These meters are built to gauge the flow of diverse liquids, including viscous, corrosive, and abrasive substances.
 
Just like all Floco meters, these models operate by segmenting the flow into known volume segments and tabulating them for accurate measurement. The rotor design is adept at allowing small solid particles and sediment to flow through without causing harm or operational interruptions. Furthermore, bridge seals are implemented to prevent liquid from bypassing the outlet port without undergoing measurement.
 
F500-1 and F500-2 have identical parts, except for housing thread connections. The Model 500 Magnetic Coupling Assembly is used on the register side of the meter. A low pressure seal is used on the sampler side when a sampler is used.
 
F500-3 parts are identical to the F500-1 and -2, except for the sideplate assemblies.
 
Floco Positive Displacement Meters are made up of five basic components: body, bridge, rotor, side plates and register.
 
The fluid passing through the meter is divided into segments by the blades of the rotor. Three segments pass through the meter each time the rotor completes a revolution. By counting rotor revolutions, a measure of the fluid is obtained.

The Floco Positive Displacement Meters Models:
  • F2500-1,
  • F2500-2,
  • F2500-3,
  • FS2500-1,
  • FS2500-2,
  • FS2500-3  
are designed to measure the flow of a broad range of liquids, including viscous, corrosive, and abrasive substances. Like all Floco meters, these models measure the flow by separating it into segments of known volume and then counting the segments.
 
Flow rates from 6 to 90 gallons per minute can be accommodated. Versions of the F2500 and FS2500 are fitted with either NPT fittings, Gruvlock (Victaulic) connections, or flanges of various pressure ratings and face styles. End fittings on the -1 models mate with one-inch pipe fittings. Similarly, the end fittings on the -2 and -3 models mate with two and three-inch pipe fittings.
 
All meter bodies can be coated with an epoxy liner to improve corrosion resistance.
 
Four elastomers (Buna-N, Viton, Ethylene Propylene, and Neoprene) are avail- able to cover a broad range of fluid applications. The elastomer selection covers all O-rings that are wetted by the measured liquid. In addition, rotors are avail- able with teflon blades and grommets for high temperature applications. Four bearing materials (carbon, aluminumbronze, meehanite and teflon) are offered to optimize performance in a variety of corrosive or abrasive environments.
 
Floco Positive Displacement Meters are made up of five basic components: body, bridge, rotor, side plates and register. The fluid passing through the meter is divided into segments by the blades of the rotor. Three segments pass through the meter each time the rotor completes a revolution. By counting rotor revolutions, a measure of the fluid is obtained.
Liquid entering the meter is deflected downward by the bridge against the rotor blades. The force of the liquid on each successive blade causes the rotor to turn. The liquid between the blades is moved to the outlet port, where it is discharged as the bridge reduces the volume of the flow segment.
 
The rotor is magnetically coupled to the register drive shaft which is connected to the register by appropriate calibration gears.
 
The design of the rotor allows small particles to pass through the meter without causing damage or malfunction.
