Thermal mass flow meter FT3 from FOX THERMAL INSTRUMENTS
The Fox Model FT3, a
multiple award-winning thermal gas mass flow meter manufactured in the United States by Fox Thermal Instruments.
The Model FT3 was designed with our oil and gas customers in mind. This meter is Quad O (OOOO) compliant and is perfect for use in flare gas applications along with other fuel gas measurement.
The Model FT3 measures gas flow rate in standard units (SCFM, NM³/hr, LBS/HR, KG/HR & many more) without the need for temperature and pressure compensation.
FT3 View™ - a
free software tool –- allows the user to connect to and configure the FT3 using USB to a PC or laptop.
