FCI’s Thermal Mass Flow Meters

Fluid Components International (FCI) has stated that its range of products is suitable for process engineers in search of a flow measurement solution to support accurate, safe and economical nitrogen tank blanketing operations.

Storage tank blanketing or padding by pumping inert nitrogen or other gases into the vapour space of a tank is designed to protect the contents.

Depending on the specific type of product stored in the tank, blanketing can prevent contamination, toxic fume leaks, explosions or fires.  The pressure of the blanketing gas pumped into the tank is slightly higher than atmospheric pressure, which is all that is necessary to achieve the desired results.  

Accurately measuring the blanketing gas is important because adding too much gas is unsafe, wasteful and expensive.  Most storage tanks are not generally designed for high-pressure environments — so over-pressurisation can be a dangerous issue.
