KROHNE, Inc. announces the availability of the new OPTISONIC 6300 V2 ultrasonic flowmeter with a stationary, clamp-on design ideal for a wide range of systems. The OPTISONIC 6300 V2 allows users to measure flow anywhere necessary, all while processes continue.
New to the OPTISONIC 6300 V2 is a viscosity range of up to 200 cSt, no need for re-greasing due to solid coupling material, a next generation signal converter for enhanced application range, Namur NE107 diagnostics, and integrated thermal energy calculation.
The OPTISONIC 6300 V2 is suitable for diameters ranging from ½” to 160”. It has a process temperature range of -40…392°F (-40…200°C). This new flowmeter from KROHNE delivers accurate sensor alignment using rail mounted transducers, and minimized uncertainty through installation wizard and optimization routine.
This flowmeter is constructed as a submersible stainless steel sensor rail (IP 68/NEMA 6P). For the complete diameter range, the OPTISONIC 6300 V2 offers flexible configurations: single and dual ultrasonic sensors; wall and field signal converter housing; and V-, W-, Z-, and X-mode measurement modes.
The OPTISONIC 6300 V2 ultrasonic clamp-on flowmeter is a flexible solution, with a quick and easy installation requiring no process shutdown and no flow interruptions or downtime. It is also cost-effective, since its price is independent of diameter, material, and pressure class. Finally, it offers greater safety for operators and plants themselves, thanks to a reduction in potential leakage points and its suitability for toxic and corrosive fluids.
