Overview
The OPTISONIC 8300 is a 2-path ultrasonic flowmeter for flow measurement of superheated steam and high temperature gases up to +620°C/ +1148°F and max. 200 bar / 2900 psi. It delivers high performance over a wide flow range (up to DN1000 / 40", turndown ratio: 60:1). This makes the flowmeter the ideal solution for boiler and power plant monitoring or as steam billing device. With temperature and pressure sensors connected to the meter, its integrated flow computer can also calculate steam mass flow or enthalpy.
