The Sage Thermal Mass Meter is ideal for air and gas measurement in instrument air packages and flare lines used in carbon credit programs. This meter has a high sensitivity to low gas flow lines. In situ calibration eliminates downtime back on site. The new Sage Paramount™ Industrial Thermal Mass Flow Meter provides state-of-the-art components; a dual-sided, explosion-proof, NEMA 4X enclosure (Div. 2 rating); a fast response to rapid temperature fluctuations; and a well-thought-out terminal arrangement with a 3-way switch for externally or internally isolating the 4-20 mA or for non-isolated self-powered operation.

One of the many compelling features of the Paramount™ is its accompanying free software: SageCom™. The SageCom™ software effortlessly connects the Sage Paramount™ to your PC via a separate mini USB connector located within the back terminal enclosure. This connector is independent of the normal Modbus communication channel allowing validation or reconfigurability of your Paramount™, even while its standard Modbus output is connected to a network of additional Paramount meters going to the SCADA system.

The innovative features of the new software permits the user to reconfigure the meter by changing full scale, changing pipe size [4” or larger], modifying engineering units, and more. Also, you can alter common gas constituents in the field, log real-time data, perform a loop check on the plant’s 4-20 mA, and validate the meter’s operation through three different diagnostic steps, including the Sage In Situ Calibration Verification. When finished, print a Validation Report complete with time and date stamps.
