Fluid Components International’s compact thermal flow meter line has been expanded and improved with a new electronics design that features the addition of HART Version 7 digital bus communication.

The new models of thermal mass flow meters are ST51A, ST75A and ST75AV, and they provide users with economical solutions to measuring air or gases in demanding industrial process and plant applications.

The ST51A, ST75A and ST75AV represent the next generation in thermal mass flow meter design from FCI. They combine surface-mount, lead-free RoHS-compliant electronics with repeatable all-welded, equal-mass flow sensors.

The added HART digital bus communication and its associated device driver (DD) have been tested and certified by the Fieldcomm (HART) Group to meet the latest Version 7 standards.

With over 30 million supported field instruments installed worldwide, HART technology offers a reliable solution for leveraging benefits of intelligent flow meters and other devices through standardised digital communication.

FCI's range is distributed in Australia by AMS Instrumentation & Calibration.
