What’s New at ONICON

It has been a busy year for ONICON. Not only was its new Nautilus Flow loop completed, but they also recently completed updates to the 735-calibration flow loop which is used to calibrate our F-3500 and F-1000 series products. This update included replacing the two main pumps feeding the 735-power prover with a single end suction centrifugal pump that is controlled via variable frequency drive.

This upgrade allows ONICON the capability to ramp the pump speed up and down to a precise flow rate rather than using throttling valves. ONICON calibration technicians will gain efficiency with this automation and are no longer required to manually throttle valves to meet a flow rate.

Another huge accomplishment this year was implementing ISO/IEC:17025 for the SYS-40 and F-4600 calibration loop. The loop was certified earlier this year and all products on that line now have accredited calibration. ONICON continues to fine tune its controls program to improve efficiency of the calibration process, these improvements and upgrades will support pursuit of ISO-17025 on its F-3500 product line.

ONICON Incorporated’s F-4300 Clamp-on Ultrasonic Flow Meter is Now Available up to 48” Pipe Sizes

ONICON Incorporated introduces increased line size availability on the F-4300 Clamp-on Ultrasonic Flow Meter.

The F-4300’s updated features include:

• Available for Pipe Sizes ½” to 48”
• New 30 Series Transducer Selection with NEMA 4 (IP66) Threaded Strain Relief Connector
• Enhanced Performance on Older or Corroded Piping
• Ideal Solution for Retrofits & Baseline Monitoring
• Simple to Install with High Confidence and Reliability
• Native BACnet & MODBUS Communications
• Certificate of Calibration Accompanies Each Meter

The ONICON F-4300 Clamp-on Ultrasonic Flow Meter is the ideal tool for measuring flow when it is difficult to install insertion or inline flow meters. The meter utilizes a matched pair of high precision signal transducers to measure flow through the pipe wall. It is designed for use with pipes ranging from ½” to 48” in diameter and works with most commonly used pipe materials.

The F-4300 is simple to install and commission. Clamp-on transducers allow for quick and easy installation with no system shutdown and no pressure drop. Each meter is provided with a built in 128-megabyte data logger and is configured and programmed to the customer’s application data, so complex field programming is not required.

“The F-4300 is the non-invasive approach to highly accurate hydronic measurement. Now, with the introduction of the 30 Series transducers, the F-4300 can accommodate pipe sizes up to 48” and provide an excellent solution for troublesome retrofit applications where the piping is older or corroded.” says Doantrang Le Tran, Product Manager for ONICON Incorporated.
