DATA SHEET NOW WITH MULTI-CAL CALIBRATION SOFTWARE! Use the Best For over 50 years, Drexelbrook has been the world’s leader in capacitive based measurements by providing reliable and accurate products at a reasonable cost. We offer the highest pressure and temperature ratings in the industry, 1500 PSI and temperatures up to 450°F. Easy Configuration with Built-in Display and Keypad All Universal IV CM comes from the factory pre-calibrat-ed and requires only one point validation. Field configuration can be done from anywhere along the two-wire loop with our STExplorer PC Software. You can also configure via local display / keypad without the need for laptop or handheld communicators. Worldwide Approvals The Universal IV CM Model has been approved for Class I, Div1, and Zone 0 hazardous locations. FM, FMc, ATEX, as well as IECEx approvals are available. Eliminate Routine Maintenance The Universal IV CM ignores paraffin and other coatings that buildup on the probe. No need to take apart the spool pieces and tie-off large pipelines. The Universal IV CM can be configured as either an insertion probe with a NPT fitting (Reference our Universal IV CM Model with Temperature compensation) or as a flanged mounted inline spool probe for most common pipe diameters. Temperature Compensation The dielectric constant of crude oil can change with any changes in temperature. These changes may cause standard cut monitors to change without any variance in water content. The Universal IV Water Cut Monitor measures product temperature internally and calculates a true water cut reading at any temperature within the process temperature range. Multi-Cal Density Compensation The density or API gravity of crude oil changes due to many factors including temperature, material changes as well as the region and or formation that it is being pulled from. These changes will cause standard cut monitors to mistakenly attribute changes in density to changes in water content if not properly accounted for. The new Drexelbrook UIV CM with Multi-Cal Density Compensation utilizes system measured variables such as temperature, flow and density from a customer supplied Coriolis meter and calculates the corrected value for true water content. Multi-Cal software allows for up to 10 different density calibration points to reduce recalibration requirements, thus insuring maximum accuracy load to load.

Universal IV™ Density Compensated Water Cut Meter Operating Overview for Density Compensation The Drexelbrook UIV CM with Density compensation employs the use of a remote electronics housing (Density Compensation Module –DCM) to perform the compensation adjustments for density changes in the process flow. The DCM is identical to the housing used on standard cut monitor system and meets all hazardous area approvals. It can be mounted in close proximity to the cut monitor, anywhere on the LACT skid or in the non hazardous electronics control area. To perform density compensation the...

Universal IV™ Density Compensated Water Cut Meter In-Line Spool Piece Mounting / Dimensions The Cut Monitor sensing element varies with pipe size. The larger the pipe diameter size, the longer the sensing element active length must be. The Cote-Shield length is sized so the sensing element is fully extended into the fluid beyond nozzles and elbows. Below are some standard look up tables.
