Emerson FloBoss ™ S600+ Flow Computer

Emerson FloBoss ™  S600+ Flow Computer

Product Overview

FloBoss ™  S600+is a panel mounted flow computer designed specifically for measuring hydrocarbon liquids and gases, emphasizing versatility and accuracy. It is an upgraded version of its predecessor S600 and is a market leading product of Emerson Process Management, suitable for various application scenarios such as flow measurement, trade handover, pipeline measurement, batch loading, instrument calibration, etc.

Core functions and features

Multi flow and multi station support: Supports multi flow (up to 10, optional expansion modules required) and multi station (up to 2) applications, can simultaneously measure gases, moisture, crude oil, refined products, LPG, NGL, etc., and can also accommodate liquid and gas stations simultaneously.

Wide compatibility: compatible with various flow meters or primary components, such as turbines, ultrasonic, Coriolis, positive displacement, orifice plates, Venturi, etc Annubar、V-Cone ®  And Rosemount adjustment orifice plate.

Global measurement standard support: Supports numerous global measurement standards, including AGA, ISO, GPA, GERG, etc. for gas applications, and API, ASTM, GPA, NORSOK, etc. for liquid applications.

High performance processing: adopting distributed processing, the main processor is more powerful, including hardware floating-point processors, with faster calculation speed. All metric calculations use 64 bit (double precision) floating-point numbers to ensure high precision and API compliance.

Data recording and archiving: The data recording and archiving capabilities have been significantly enhanced, including an extended historical recorder that can store 333 days of monthly, weekly, daily, and hourly reports for a typical 10 stream application, as well as 50000 events and 50000 alerts. Additionally, it supports FLOOCAL CFX files to enhance data integrity.

Convenient operation and display: Equipped with an 8-line LCD display screen and a 29 key keyboard, supporting English and Russian character sets, system parameters can be viewed or modified without the need for a PC.

Compatibility and Upgradeability: Fully backward compatible with the previous generation S600, it can utilize existing configurations and tools to facilitate upgrading the existing S600 to S600+, and the design ensures the future supply and support of the S600 series, with improved processing power and memory, and the ability to continuously add new features.
