Gas Mixing Software Prevents Costly Recalibration

Sierra Instruments’ flow meter gas mixing software package, qMix, is included with every QuadraTherm 640i/780i thermal mass flow meter on a beta trial basis.

The software is a user-customizable gas mix feature that allows users to create custom gases or gas mixtures to compensate for gas compositional changes in the field. The software can be used when the gas composition changes in the pipe or when moving the meter to another location with a different gas composition. Users can retain accuracy without returning the thermal mass flow meter to the factory. In biogas or oil and gas fields, the meter will not need to be sent back to the factory for gas recalibration every time your gas changes. Operators can create and upload unlimited gas mixtures onto one meter, and can save custom gas mixtures into a database for later use.
