Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Faure Herman turbine flow meters suitable for custody transfer applications?
Faure Herman turbine flow meters are engineered with helical rotors that provide unparalleled accuracy, repeatability, and linearity, which are mandatory for fiscal metering and custody transfer. They meet stringent international metrological standards, ensuring precise measurement of high-value hydrocarbons.
Can Faure Herman ultrasonic flow meters handle high-viscosity crude oils?
Yes, Faure Herman's advanced ultrasonic flow meters utilize proprietary signal processing algorithms capable of penetrating dense, highly viscous multiphase fluids. This ensures reliable, non-intrusive flow measurement without the pressure drop associated with mechanical meters in crude oil pipelines.
How does Faure Herman address calibration requirements for aerospace fluid measurement?
Faure Herman operates state-of-the-art, internationally traceable calibration facilities that replicate the precise kinematic viscosities and flow profiles of aviation fuels. Each meter undergoes rigorous multi-point calibration to guarantee exact performance under the extreme operational parameters of aerospace testing.
Are Faure Herman flow measurement systems compatible with bidirectional flow?
Their specialized ultrasonic and advanced turbine meter configurations are specifically designed to accurately measure bidirectional fluid movement. This capability is critical for loading and offloading terminals where fluid direction frequently reverses within the same pipeline infrastructure.
What diagnostic capabilities are integrated into Faure Herman's digital flow computers?
Faure Herman flow computers feature comprehensive self-diagnostic suites that continuously monitor signal integrity, acoustic velocity, and dynamic fluid parameters. This real-time diagnostic data allows engineers to implement predictive maintenance strategies and rapidly identify process anomalies before they impact measurement accuracy.
