Mass Flow Meters for Gas Applications

Optical Scientific's Mass Flow Meters for Gas Applications use patented optical scintillation technology to deliver non-intrusive, drift-free velocity and flow measurement across industrial stacks, flare systems, wet scrubbers, and aluminum smelters. Designed for EPA 40 CFR Part 75 compliance, these sensors require no field calibration and are essentially maintenance-free.

Frequently Asked Questions

What measurement principle do OSI's mass flow meters use?

OSI's mass flow meters use patented optical scintillation technology. An infrared beam is transmitted across the gas stream, and fluctuations caused by refractive index changes in the moving gas are analyzed using a NIST-certified DSP algorithm to determine velocity and flow rate accurately — with no contact with the process gas.

Are OSI optical flow sensors compliant with EPA 40 CFR Part 75?

Do OSI gas flow meters require field calibration?

Can these sensors measure flow in high-opacity or high-moisture environments?

What is the velocity measurement range of OSI's flare stack flow sensors?

Are OSI flow sensors suitable for aluminum smelter applications?

What installation requirements do OSI optical flow sensors have?
