Daniel Enters the Ultrasonic Liquid Measurement Market

Daniel, a leader in fiscal measurement of oil and gas, has developed its own technology for the ultrasonic measurement of liquids. It will be used for custody transfer, fiscal and operational measurement for applications in areas such as oil platforms, pipelines for crude and refined products and trading terminals.
Emerson's Daniel Model 3804 ultrasonic liquid meter accurately measures a wide variety of fluids including crude oil, distillate fuels and petrochemicals. These fluids are measured to an accuracy of +/- 0.15% over a 10:1 flow rate. The meters feature an unprecedented transducer design, with paired layers of glass that provide excellent waveform detection and acoustic coupling, providing more accurate measurements.

The 3804 meter uses technology based on transit time along four strings. The four pairs of integrally mounted transducers allow the meter to maintain high accuracy even in conditions where the flow rate can vary greatly, including changing fluids. The meter is designed for reliable measurement and minimal maintenance. Intrinsically safe and waterproof transducers can be replaced in just a few minutes, without interruption of operation, even in hazardous environments and without the need to empty, depressurize or shut down the meter.

With internet monitoring capability, Daniel's Model 3804 offers users remote monitoring of flow profiles, transducer status and tools to detect and resolve measurement problems. The interface used by Daniel is the Customer Ultrasonic Interface (CUI), Windows compatible software, tested and approved by Emerson and thousands of Daniel Ultrasonic Gas Meter users around the world.
