Non-intrusive flow measurement
introduced
Ultrasonic flowmeter that uses provides a high-performance non-intrusive flow measurement and does not require that the pipe needs to be cut to install the meter.
The new US300 from Yokogawa UK is an ultrasonic flowmeter that uses the transit-time technique to provide a high-performance non-intrusive flow measurement The non-intrusive 'dry' measuring technique eliminates the problems of cutting into the pipe to install the meter, pressure loss and wear and tear encountered in many flow-metering installations, resulting in a reduction in the total cost of ownership

Paperless recorders support Foundation Fieldbus
The Yokogawa DAQSTATION DX100/DX200 family of paperless recorders are the first instruments of their type to support the Foundation Fieldbus bidirectional digital communication standard.
Control and measurement stations have PID
The new Yokogawa CX1000 and CX2000 are a range of control and measurement stations based on the company's Daqstation family of paperless recorders wwith added PID control functions.
The new instrument will measure sound velocity to provide volumetric flow or mass flow in pipes up to 6.5m in diameter, and has a measuring range from 0 to 110,000m3/h.
Advanced signal processing is based on a dual-processor system which provides transit-time correlation, while the use of a matched pair of stainless-steel transducers eliminates zero offsets and ensures excellent linearity.
The US300 can be supplied with either fixed or portable electronics.Both versions have a two-line LCD display, up to two 4-20mA outputs and an RS232 serial interface.
