Unique multivariable design

Panametrics, a Baker Hughes business, PanaFlow MV82
in-line multivariable mass vortex flowmeter is the next
generation vortex meter. PanaFlow MV82’s multivariable
design consists of a vortex shedding velocity sensor,
an RTD temperature sensor and a solid state pressuretransducer that measures the mass flow rate of steam,gases and liquids. Other meter types use external process
measurements to calculate mass flow. The temperatureand pressure devices are typically not installed in thesame location as the flowmeter. Process conditions
can vary greatly between the two locations, causing
inaccurate mass flow readings. PanaFlow MV82 measuresvelocity, temperature and pressure at the same location,
which provides more accurate process measurement.

Portfolio of flow meter solutions

Panametrics is committed to providing customers
with the best technologies for their flow measurement
needs. PanaFlow MV82 is the newest addition to the
PanaFlow family of flowmeters, providing effective
solutions for smaller pipe sizes for a variety of
applications. Panametrics offers the PanaFlow MV82 ina number of configurations to best suit your application
measurement needs.

Field service solutions

Panametrics has a global field service team readyto assist in the start-up and commissioning of the
PanaFlow MV82 flowmeters. This service includes
validating the proper installation and programmingof the meter, and can include customized training fortheory, operation and maintenance. Regularly scheduled
preventative maintenance visits will provide peace ofmind, ensuring that the meters work to specification andyour expectation for years.

Mass flow measurement—true multivariable

The MV82 offers flow computer functionality in acompact field device. The VTP option incorporates
temperature and pressure sensors to provide an
instantaneous reading of compensated mass flow rateof gases, liquids and steam. In addition to outputs for
totalized mass and alarm settings, the field configurable
electronics deliver up to three analog 4-20 mA outputsof five process measurements, including volumetricflow rate, mass flow rate, pressure, temperature anddensity. Alternate configurations for mass flow include atemperature only compensation (VT), best used whenin saturated steam applications, and an integrated RTD
with an external pressure transmitter (VT-EP) when a fullfunction pressure transmitter is desired.

Energy measurement
in liquids and steam

The VT-EM energy monitoring option enables real timeof-flight diffraction calculation of energy consumption
for a facility or process. The meter can be programmed
to measure steam, hot water or chilled water. This
option uses the MV82 flowmeter to monitor one sideof the process, either sent or return, and uses the input
from a second separate temperature sensor on the
opposite leg of the process to calculate the change
in energy. Selectable energy units include BTU, joules,
calories, watt-hours, megawatt-hours and horsepowerhours. The local or remote electronics indicate twotemperatures, delta T, mass total and energy total. Forenergy measurement in steam, the VTP-EM option adds
a pressure transmitter to offer better accuracy.

Volumetric flow formost gases and liquids

The base model MV82 delivers a direct reading ofvolumetric flow rate—generally the most cost-effective
solution for liquid flow monitoring—in applications
ranging from general water flows to hydrocarbon
fuel flow measurement.
