C571

Flow & Energy Computer

for natural gas, hydrogen and other gases

Product description

The C571 is a Flow & Energy Computer for natural gas, hydrogen and other gas applications. It measures flow, temperature and pressure and uses AGA8 92DC, SGERG88(91) or table determinations to calculate volume, mass and energy. The linearization enhances accuracy in any flow range. The large logging register contains all measured and calculated values. The robust IP66/67 aluminum field enclosure, withstands extreme weather and industrial conditions.

Our proven experience with instrumentation, international requirements and the focus on user-friendly operation are combined in the most robust, accurate and easy-to-use field mount Flow & Energy Computer on the market. Learn more about the C571.

Advantages
  • Robust IP66/67, Type4X aluminium field enclosure, withstands extreme weather and industrial conditions.
  • Large, versatile display with bright backlight, all info at a glance.
  • Easy-to-operate with 6 rugged industrial silicone buttons.
  • User-friendly operation and configuration via the keypad and display or with the free available configuration software.
