Process Characterization

The Red Meter is driven by a breakthrough technology and a novel approach to safely measuring the process characteristics of any media on a continuous basis in various environments. The Red Meter may be best described as a process characterization device that is deployed in conjunction with process control methodologies to enable continuous, real-time, in-line measurement of critical media characteristics. The unit produces a unique “Process Signature” or Red Meter Signature when deployed in any continuous liquid, slurry or dry bulk media pipeline or conduit. The advanced Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning capabilities of the unit enable the instantaneous interpretation of the Red Meters Signature. This process information and interpretation can be presented instantaneously on a built in display, or delivered to a remote location using 4-20mA, HART, Modbus or any other standard industry communication protocol. With advanced machine learning techniques, accurate interpretation of the Process Signature may provide additional useful information, such as “sticky” valves, slow actuators, leakage, media flocculation, process anomalies, gas entrapment, process kicks etc. and may alert the operator to take corrective action to avoid process or production issues or interruptions should any anomalies be detected.
