Emerson Launches Advanced Phase Measurement Software

Emerson Process Management introduces Micro Motion Advanced Phase Measurement (APM), a software option available on the Model 5700 Transmitter. The software reportedly helps improve measurement accuracy across industries in challenging multi-phase applications such as direct wellhead and separator net oil measurement in the oilfield and starch concentration for food and beverage plants.

The multiple phase measurement solution provides insight into the complete flow stream, including oil, water and gas, through an intuitive, local display, according to the company. Advanced Phase Measurement provides continuous, real-time production data for oil, water and gas void fraction. Advanced Phase Measurement is also useful for the life sciences and chemical industries, providing measurement insight to reduce waste, maintain product quality and identify process upsets in the presence of multiple phases.
