Rp123000.00
Manufacturer/Brand: Emerson Process Management – Remote Automation Solutions (Fisher)
Type: Electronic Flow Computer / Flow Manager
Description
The FloBoss 103 is a microprocessor-based electronic flow computer designed for accurate measurement, monitoring, and control of natural gas flow in a single meter run. It is suitable for orifice, turbine, and rotary metering applications, providing an integrated solution for flow calculation, data logging, and remote communication.
Compact and rugged, the FloBoss 103 replaces traditional chart recorders by combining advanced flow computation with real-time data recording and communication capabilities. It is housed in a weatherproof NEMA 4 aluminum enclosure, ideal for outdoor installations in demanding industrial environments.
Key Features
Integrated Dual-Variable Sensor (DVS) for static and differential pressure measurement.
Supports AGA-3 (orifice) and AGA-7 (turbine/rotary) flow equations with AGA-8 gas compressibility calculations.
High-capacity data logging with configurable minute, hourly, and daily archives.
Stores up to 240 alarms and 240 event records.
User-programmable logic using Function Sequence Tables (FST) for automation and control tasks.
PID control capability (with optional I/O modules).
Multiple communication ports:
Local Operator Interface (RS-232)
Communication Port 1 (RS-485) supporting ROC or Modbus protocol
Optional Communication Port 2 for modem or wireless radio.
Secure access with up to 16 user logon IDs and password protection.
Pass-through communication allows data transfer between ports.
Supports User C custom programs for specialized functions.
Optional LCD display for local indication of key process variables.
Battery-powered operation with solar charging capability.
Low-power sleep mode and comprehensive self-diagnostics.
