Large choice of flange types

Faure Herman offers a wide range of flanges and adapters to suit your needs.

Choice of number and position of outputs pick ups

One, two or three outputs can be customized to include local readouts and measurement verification. 

Readers flexible installation

Local displays can be placed either directly on the output pick up or remotly located if this is required for ease of maintenance, security in ATR (explosives conditions) etc.

Bi-Directional Measurements

FH provides several solutions for bidirectional measurement across all our activity sectors thanks to its symmetrical rotor.

Quick response time

Thanks to customized electronics, our equipment allows particularly short response times.

Sustainability over decades

Coming from experience, it has been notices that the extreme non electronic simplicity or our equipments make them last for decades if the basic MRO program is followed.

Fine Spirits Metering Stations

Mastered technology

Long term mastered technology.

Low Pressure Drop

Thanks to low pressure requirements our various metering solutions can help you improve your operational costs in terms of energy savings. 

Qualified against the most severe environmental conditions

Versatility of features allow adaptation to your processes :

• External environment

(explosive, corrosive, harsh atmosphere)

• Measured fluid

(corrosive, abrasive, hazardous and polluting fluid)

Light Weight

Faure Herman meets the highest requirements in terms of weight reduction.

Accuracy and repeatability

Typical accuracy is 0.15% with repeatability of < 0.04%.

Premium Master Meter accuracy is +/-0.1% with repeatability< 0.02%.

Performing factory calibration on hydrocarbons of same viscosity as your fluid characteristics ensures your meter performs in the field the same as it did in the calibration lab.  This ensures accurate measurement of your revenues.

Custom calibrate / Tailor made calibration

Faure Herman provides a unique calibration service to its customers, by using the same fluid characteristics as the customer’s own fluid.

For helical turbines, Faure Herman brings an extra service by fine tuning of the rotor shape, in order to get unmatched accuracy and repeatability. These « retouche » are hand made in between two calibration runs, by specialized operators, internally trained to reproduce Faure Herman 100 year know-how.

This is what makes the difference between a good meter and a master meter.

Large Flow Rates

Flow rate capability from 0.8 to 4500 m3/h, this over a wide range of viscosity from 0.7 to 500 cSt .

Compact

Faure Herman meters can be integrated in a cold plate.

Coolant Fluid Leaks

Faure Herman designs leak detection meters for cooling systems.

Downsizing

You originally needed a maximum flow rate of 1,260 b.hr, but now, several years later, oil output has dropped below 50% of original flow…

You can go from our original 4’’ Heliflu TZN STD 100-200 to the downsized DS 100-110 model, in order to achieve a maximum flow rate of 690 bph, without changing your meter run.

This can be integrated into an existing meter skid, extending duty life without having to change existing piping.

Large Flow Rates

Air-to-Air Refueling : up to 200 000 l/h and beyond according to your needs.

Low Pressure Drop

The helical rotor concept generates less resistance to fluid’s flowing, thus reducing the associated pressure drops.

Qualified againt most severe environmental conditions

Faure Herman meters meet the DO-160 standard requirements, related to conditions such as temperature, vibration, burst pressure.

Accomodates different types of fuel

Our device can accomodate variable types of fuels that comprise bio fuels thanks to years of selecting impeller profiles and materials.

Real time information

Output Signal according to your requirements.

Accuracy for military

Performing factory calibration on hydrocarbons of same viscosity as your fluid characteristics ensures optimum performance in the field.

Low cost of ownership

Associated with interchangeability and very easy to install & maintain. 

Calibration with real fluid

Faure Herman calibrates 100% of your equipments with real fuels.

Flexibility

Faure Herman meters are available in several flow ranges within a single line size, offering you the possibility of upsizing or downsizing based upon the lifecycle of your production.

This may be achieved by just changing the cartridge or the meter body, not the entire meter run. This provides significant cost savings on the metering unit.

Sturdiness

Our rotors are one piece elements, carved directly from a bloc of the appropriate metal for your application. The helical rotor, rounded front edge and light weight materials improve stability and linearity even in high viscosity fluids – while reducing bearing wear.

Combined with tungsten carbide bearings, we design our turbines for high performance, over a very long period of time, with minimum need for repair or maintenance.

Replaceable cartridge

Our TZN range of removable cartridges allow you to carry on production using a spare cartridge for replacement while the original one is sent back for repair or recalibration.

This helps you reduce downtime and save money, while providing full autonomy for your operations.

If your process conditions change, this innovative design also allows you to adapt to the new fluid and flow range, by simply changing the cartridge, without changing your existing footprint / infrastructure.
