Metraflow®: Ensuring pharmaceutical precision

Titan Enterprises introduces the Metraflow® Ultra Clean PFA Ultrasonic Flowmeter, a cutting-edge solution for diverse applications within the pharmaceutical manufacturing process. The Metraflow® stands out for its non-invasive nature and single clean bore feature, making it ideal for industries where purity and accuracy in flow measurements are paramount, especially when handling critical fluids like ultra-pure water (UPW).

In the pharmaceutical sector, the advantages of in-line ultrasonic flow meters, such as the Metraflow®, are significant:

Hygienic design: The Metraflow® boasts FDA-approved high-performance PFA polymer tubing, ensuring exceptional chemical compatibility and purity. The absence of internal moving parts enhances longevity, reduces the risk of contamination, and eliminates nucleation or leak points that could compromise product quality or process efficiency.

Process optimisation: Flow meters play a crucial role in optimising pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. In applications such as wet granulation, precise flow measurement ensures the accurate addition of liquid binders to the mixture, leading to improved tablet quality and consistency.

Accurate measurement: Utilising ultrasound technology, the Metraflow® incorporates Titan’s patented time-of-flight ultrasonic technology and sophisticated electronics, providing precise and reliable measurements of ultra-pure liquids. With an accuracy of ±0.5% FSD and ±0.1% repeatability across flow ranges from 20 to 5000 ml/min, the Metraflow® ensures accurate and consistent results.

Cost efficiency: Accurate flow measurement and control of critical fluids minimise product waste, improving overall process efficiency. This leads to cost savings and increased profitability, crucial in the highly competitive pharmaceutical industry.

The Metraflow® is popular among top pharmaceutical companies, due to its effectiveness and reliability in streamlining manufacturing techniques. These companies prioritise quality and efficiency, and the adoption of this reliable technology reflects its suitability for their needs. With its non-intrusive, sanitary, and accurate measurement capabilities, the Metraflow® contributes to ensuring the integrity and sterility of critical fluids while optimising manufacturing processes, ultimately enhancing product quality and profitability.
