28
WHAT IS A THERMAL MASS FLOW METER? It is a Meter that directly measures the Gas Mass Flow based on the principle of conductive and convective heat transfer
29
WHAT DO THE SENSORS CONSIST OF? The Sensors are RTDs, which are Resistance Temperature Detectors They consist of highly stable reference-grade platinum windings clad in 316SS One of the RTDs is self-heated by the circuitry and serves as the Flow Sensor The other RTD acts as a Reference Sensor. Essentially it is used for temperature compensation
30
HOW DOES IT WORK? The Sage proprietary Sensor Drive Circuitry maintains a constant overheat (ΔT) between the Flow Sensor and the Reference Sensor As gas flows by the heated sensor (Flow Sensor), the molecules of flowing gas carry heat away from this sensor, and the sensor cools down as it loses energy The circuit will automatically (within 1 second) replace this lost energy by heating up the flow sensor so the overheat temperature is restored The current required to maintain this overheat represents the Mass Flow signal
31
WHY THERMAL MFMs over OTHER TECHNOLOGIES?
32
WHY THERMAL? DIRECT MASS FLOW –No need for separate T or P transmitters RANGEABILITY AND SENSITIVITY –Turndown of 100 to 1 –Resolution as much as 1000 to 1 (for Sage) –Sage can easily detect even 5 SFPM LOW PRESSURE DROP –Will not impede the flow or waste energy NO MOVING PARTS –Eliminates costly bearing replacements, and prevents undetected accuracy shifts EASE OF INSTALLATION –Insertion Style for pipes 1” and up
33
ADDITIONAL BENEFITS (Pressure Independence) 15 Data Points at 110 psig (BP), than same output, even at 0 psig (No Back Pressure)
34
THERMAL MFM ADVANTAGES (OVER OTHER SPECIFIC TECHNOLOGIES) Temperature and Pressure measurement needed on Vortex, Turbine, Positive Displacement, Orifice, etc. to obtain Mass Flow Coriolis expensive and has large head loss All above have limited turn-down (poor low-end sensitivity) and have substantial pressure drop Turbine and Positive Displacement have moving parts (may need frequent maintenance) Insertion Style meters not available on above technologies (except on some Vortex models)
35
SAGE METERING A PIONEER IN TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT Brought to Market the Hybrid Digitally- Driven bridge (vs Wheatstone bridge) Introduced In-Situ Calibration Verification at No Flow (0 SCFM) First Graphic Display in TMFM Industry Lead Length Compensation on Remote Style (up to 1000 Ft)
36
SAGE METERING TECHNOLOGY BENEFITS Hybrid-Digital eliminates analog drift Provides a reproducible zero point Maintain higher resolution and greater rangeability Improved temperature compensation (digital drive eliminates self-heating) Match overheat to application
37
EXTRAORDINARY TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
38
SAGE COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES SUMMARIZED OVER OTHER THERMAL Hybrid-Digital In-Situ Cal Check Higher Resolution Greater Rangeability Better Temp Comp Adjustable Overheat Lead-Length Compensation OVER OTHER TECHNOLOGIES Direct Mass Flow (No need for separate T&P) 100 to 1 Min Turndown Very Low-End Sensitivity Negligible Pressure Drop No Moving Parts Dirt Insensitive Ease of Installation

IN-SITU CALIBRATION CHECK & DEMO – 3 EASY STEPS Loosen, Lift, Look

IN-SITU CALIBRATION CHECK FOR SAGE Step 1 – “Loosen”

IN-SITU CALIBRATION CHECK FOR SAGE Step 2 – “Lift”
51
IN-SITU CALIBRATION CHECK FOR SAGE Step 3 – “Look”
52
IN-SITU CALIBRATION EXPLANATION The reason sage can perform the In-Situ Calibration Check, is due to the meter’s extraordinary reproducibility, even at a “No Flow” (0 SCFM) condition This reproducibility is a direct result of having developed a hybrid-digital method of driving the sensors vs the drift prone Wheatstone bridge Essentially, the customer can recreate an identical data point to that taken at Sage, at the one condition they can accurately reproduce – “No Flow” (0 SCFM) See Section 4 in Binder for further information
