Typically this comprises:

• Sensor set, intrinsically safe

• Data acquisition unit, safe area

• PC terminal and printer, safe area

• All cables and connectors

Option for UPS system for approximately 2-hour back-up

System Description

Sensors

• Pressure and Temperature sensors at choke manifold inlet.

• Pressure and Temperature sensors at choke manifold outlet.

• Pressure and Temperature

• Differential Pressure

• Flow Meter turbines

All sensors are suitable for use in sour service (H2S) and operation in a Zone II hazardous area

Data Acquisition Unit

• PLC-based and housed with the sensor interface modules, in a compact safe-area enclosure

• Pulse signals will be shared, in order to derive flow-rates for the system database.

PC and printer terminal

A high-quality notebook computer is used to compile the data base, prior to data being presented to the user in graphic, mimic or alpha-numeric form . Data is archived initially to hard-disc prior to being transferred to floppy or CD for off-site storage/analysis.

Two alarms may be set on each of the monitored channels, which may be used to initiate visual and/or audible warnings.  Process data may be handed off to the client in ASCII format , either by data-link or floppy disk.

Four screen-pages are included, these may be modified to reflect client preferences.  A safe-area, A4 colour printer is included with the terminal configuration
