Emerson Process Management introduces the new Daniel® Series 500 Liquid Turbine Flow Meter. This portable flow meter serves the need for highly accurate flow measurement in road tanker off-loading and can be used as a check meter at loading points in distribution terminals.
Precisely engineered for easy installation, the compact, lightweight design of the Series 500 Liquid Turbine Flow Meter is ideal for easy mating to road tankers, using quick connect camlock couplers. It can also be mounted to loading arms to monitor the performance of other meters during loading operations in distribution terminals, and is easily removed when the verification is complete. High accuracy measurement is achieved by using a bladed rotor that turns at a speed proportional to rate of flow. The rotation of the rotor is sensed by electrical pickoffs mounted on the meter body. The resultant signal is used as an input to the intrinsically safe electronic totaliser, which displays flow rate and total volume. All the electronics are located in the water-tight aluminium housing and are easily accessible from the outside. The Daniel Series 500 Liquid Turbine Meter is versatile and adds a new level of reliability and uptime availability to the measurement of various refined and light hydrocarbon products, including gasoline and diesel fuels. It is offered in DN80 (3-inch) and DN100 (4 -inch) line sizes with extended flow ranges of 246 to 2460 litres/minute and 378.5 to 3785 litres/minute respectively, assuring high flow rates and repeatability under pressure of a full line of liquid. “There is a continuing demand for accurate invoicing in tanker off-loading operations,” said Dave Seiler, measurement and control marketing director, Daniel division of Emerson Process Management. “This cost-effective meter is battery powered, easy to maintain and offers more measurement capabilities in mobile fuel operations than traditional methods, including dipsticks, tank gauges and positive displacement (PD) meters.” With today’s volatile oil prices, any small measurement error can raise financial havoc on either end of the transaction. The Daniel Series 500 Liquid Turbine Meter meets the demand for accurate fuel measurement in petrol stations and marketing terminals, where the measured amount transferred defines the payment price and where thousands of Euros worth of lost production could otherwise pass undetected in minutes.PIN 27.3 June/July 2026
