Sierra Instruments Releases Flow Totaliser Software for QuadraTherm® 640i/780i

-Totalise All Gases with One Mass Flow Meter
Sierra Instruments, a leading global mass flow meter manufacturer, releases new free flow totaliser software module for their QuadraTherm® 640i/780i mass flow meter. Through their QuadraTherm Software Interface Program (SIP), end users now have an efficient management tool to totalise and monetise all gases with one instrument. The flow totaliser software module leverages QuadraTherm’s high accuracy (+/- 0.5% of full scale) to give end users the most accurate totalisation of multiple gases from an industrial flow meter.

“Here at Sierra we are continually developing and adding value-added tools and features to our products to help our customers. The QuadraTherm SIP software flow totaliser feature all started with a customer requirement that we believe will be useful to all our flow customers,” said Scott Rouse, Vice President, Product Line Management.
Key Software Benefits

• View the totalised value of multiple gases
• Totalise up to four gases with one device and software package
• Set units per pulse and pulse width
• Turn totalisers on/off
• Reset totaliser

There are four totalisers visible on the user interface screen of the SIP software.  The user selects one to be active. Each totaliser is independent of the others, allowing users to totalise one gas, then switch and totalise another gas. End users can switch back to their previous gas to begin totalising flow with the previous flow total maintained or reset if necessary.
How to Get the Flow Totaliser
Starting this September, Sierra’s QuadraTherm 640i/780i products include the totalisation feature as part of the SIP software program. This feature is free of charge. Customers with 640i/780i meters purchased prior to September 3, 2013 (firmware 1.0.73 or lower) can send their meters back to the factory for a firmware upgrade.
