- Fuel quality monitoring in process
- Conversion of volume flow to mass flow
Description
The model DTL-30 measures, continuously and in real time, the key basic properties of fuels: density and temperature. This allows fuel identification, detection of contamination, monitoring of additives and volume to mass flow conversion.
The temperature-compensated density (in accordance with ASTM D1250, base temperature: 15 °C [59 °F]) can be output depending on the selected settings, the electrical connection and the signal type.
In addition, the sensor calculates confidence factors in real time. These factors give insight into the quality and validity of the measurements. On request, a direct output by the sensor of the calculated variables is also possible.
The DTL-30 is based on an innovative microresonator technology originating from the microsystems industry. This principle provides accurate measuring results in a wide range of liquids and operating conditions.
Due to its high computational power, the measuring results can be output with a frequency of 1 Hz.
The compact sensor housing makes it easy to integrate, and the robust design, with no moving parts, makes it resistant to harsh conditions. Due to its approval for use in hazardous areas, the model DTL-30 is ideally suited for embedding in OEM applications or for large-scale deployments in industrial and field environments.
