Flow Control Oy

RealFlow digital oil flow meter

The RealFlow is a digital oil flow meter which is specficially designed for measuring and monitoring the volumes of oil flow circulation in a paper machine. The RealFlow unit can also control the volume of lubrication oil flow, as well as generate accurate real-time measurement data for the SCADA system.

Flow rates are formed by measuring pulses from a pair of oval gears inside the RealFlow meter, using an inductive sensor. The flow meters’ operating condition can be observed at a glance by the flashing of the inductive sensor’s leds.

States of flow rate, set point and alarm limits (Hi, Lo, Lolo) are available in real-time from every measurement point. Alarms are of relay-type binary alarms. The SCADA software allows the reading and writing of these parameters from every assembled measurement station. Data transmission to and from measurement stations can be implemented by using the Modbus RTU- or TCP-protocols.
