Learn useful ways pressure measurement can be used to help control industrial processes
Read the first installment in a four-part series featured in the May/June issue of Process Instrumentation magazine.
Some of the things you will learn about are:
- Differences in pressure
- Measuring pressure
- Using Pressure
Azbil is proud to announce expanded temperature and pressure capabilities for multiple product lines. The following product lines are now available with ANSI 900# flanged process connections:
Azbil AX23 Insertion Vortex Flow Meter
Azbil AX24 Inline Vortex Flow Meter
This expansion of capabilities will allow these products to operate in severe service applications such as superheated steam, compressed gases, and upstream oilfield applications.
Azbil’s web-based flow meter sizing program can be used to help determine which process connections may be best suited for a specific application: flow meter sizing program: Flow Meter Sizing Program

AX24 Multivariable Vortex Flowmeter delivers accurate and reliable flow metering in a multivariable design
Azbil North America has officially released the AX24 Multivariable Vortex Flowmeter. This flowmeter offers accurate and reliable flow metering in a multivariable design. The multivariable design incorporates a high-accuracy velocity sensor, a precision platinum RTD temperature sensor, and a solid-state pressure transducer. The AX24 can deliver volumetric flow, mass flow, temperature, pressure, density, and energy (BTU) measurements from a single installed device. This drastically reduces complexity, equipment costs, and installation costs in comparison to installing multiple stand-alone instruments to arrive at the same process measurements.
The AX24 includes a reduced bore option. The meter’s process connections match the line size but using integrated reducing flanges, the meter body is reduced in diameter. This increases the fluid velocity through the meter. Increasing the velocity in this fashion extends the meter’s measuring range to capture lower flow rates that might otherwise be missed in a full line size meter. This reduced bore option also shares the same face-to-face dimension as a standard AX24 meter for pressure classes up to ANSI 600. So if process conditions change, the meter body size can be changed without any costly piping modifications. This is especially useful in project planning, as it allows for flexibility into the future.
The AX24 flowmeter offers an industry-leading variety of communication and power options. In addition to providing traditional communication methods such as analog output signals, the flowmeter also offers the latest and most advanced serial communication options such as BACnet®/IP and Modbus® TCP/IP. The AX24 is the only vortex flowmeter on the market to provide Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities. Power over Ethernet functionality delivers power and data through a single ethernet cable. Both simplifying installation and reducing installation costs.
