Applications
The FLOWSIC600 is ideally suited for a wide range of custody transfer and process
measurement applications;
●
Production, transportation and distribution of natural gas,
●
Company-internal metering and billing,
●
Power stations and other gas-consuming installations,
●
Chemical and petrochemical industries,
●
Compressed air distribution systems.
2.1.1
FLOWSIC600 1-path, FLOWSIC600 2-path, FLOWSIC600 4-path
These FLOWSIC600 meters can have 1, 2 or 4 ultrasonic measuring paths and are
equipped with one set of electronics (SPU) (see outline drawings
).1 and 2-
path meters are mainly used for process control and company internal billing. Meters with
4 paths can be used for fiscal gas metering in any segment of the natural gas market,
including gathering, transportation, distribution and storage. National pattern approvals
exist for several countries.

2.1.2
FLOWSIC600 2plex (4 + 1 CBM Design)
The FLOWSIC600 2plex combines a fiscal and a diagnostic meter: the check meter with
one pair of transducers, and the fiscal meter with four pairs of transducers. Both flow
meters are incorporated into the same meter body, but metrologically independent. With
their different path designs and the resulting difference in sensitivity the diagnostics of the
FLOWSIC600 2plex can be compared in order to identify disturbances (caused by contami-
nation, pulsation or noise) at an early stage and provide a warning long before the fiscal
measurement will be impacted (see outline drawings
).
