http://sagemetering.com/products/sage... Bob Steinberg, president of Sage Metering, describes the Sage Prime Thermal Mass Flow Meter features and demonstrates the extreme low-end sensitivity and rangeability (1000:1) with less than a one second response. • The Sage Prime is often used to measure flow rate and consumption in a wide range of applications, such as monitoring compressed air or natural gas flow for energy management, or to sub-meter gas for cost allocation. • Sage meters are also installed to monitor digester gas or biogas for carbon credits to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. • A few other applications for thermal mass flow meters include vent air, combustion air, and some common flare gas applications. • Sage is a pioneer in technology development, having brought the first hybrid-digital bridge circuit to the industry over 10 years ago, thus providing a quantum leap in flow meter performance and long term reproducibility. • Sage also introduced the high contrast, easy-to-read graphical display of the Sage Prime, with its compact design, low power dissipation, high resolution and wide rangeability. • Perhaps Sage Metering's most notable contribution to the industry was the introduction over 5 years ago of the In-Situ Calibration Check, which eliminates the cost and inconvenience of periodic factory recalibrations. • All Sage meters feature a calibration validation method that is a simple, three minute check at a no flow condition. The on site check is reliable, regardless of the test gas temperature, and assures that the sensor is clean, and the flow meter has not drifted, shifted or changed since its initial NIST Traceable Factory calibration. • Insertion flow meters are easy to install, extremely cost effective, and are available for pipes 1 and up. • One of the most notable features of the Sage Prime (in fact, all of the Sage flow meters) is the extreme sensitivity. This is due to the proprietary circuit that has a resolution of up to 1000 to 1, and a one second response time. • In contrast, other thermal mass flow meter manufacturers have a response time of at least 15 seconds and require a low-end flow limit or cutoff. • The outputs on the Prime are accessed from a separate rear compartment, and provide 4-20mA proportional to mass flow rate, pulsed outputs of totalized flow, Modbus Communications, or optionally HART. • Visit us at http://sagemetering.com/ to learn more about Sage Metering's unique hybrid-digital technology — which eliminates analog drift, provides a reproducible zero flow point for calibration verification and includes outstanding temperature compensation. • Please subscribe to our channel.
