Raptor

The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System precisely measures the mass of liquids using the Coriolis principle. It works by twisting a tube carrying liquid via a small actuator, with the twisting force proportional to the liquid's mass flow rate. It is used globally across industries like oil refineries, pulp and paper processing, and chemical plants. The system measures mass instead of volume because mass remains constant regardless of temperature, pressure or density changes that can impact a liquid's volume.

Get Perfect Measurement Of Liquids With The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System:

When we purchase something expensive, we are always worried about its quality and quantity.
However, there are not always things by means of which we can clear our doubts. Still, in some cases
we can be certain about our purchased products like in case ofliquid measurement by Caterpillar
Raptor Mass Flow Metering System. Anyone who has this mass flow meter installed at the work place
can have peace of mind regarding the measurement and quality of any liquid such as petrol, oil, gas,
water etc. The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System is chiefly a meter that measures the
precise mass of liquid and reduces the chances of miscalculations and errors.

The Principle On Which The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System Works:

The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System is an old kind of mass flow meter by CAT. It works
on an important principle called ‘Coriolis Principle’. The Coriolis principle based upon inertia. A small
actuator is fixed in it whose job is to rotate a tube that carries flowing liquid or dense gas. This whole
process exerts a twisting force on the tube which is equal to its mass. This rotation and flow of liquid
ultimately provides the mass flow rate with best precision and accuracy.

Application Of The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System:

The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System is used globally by people of various industries. It
can easily be utilized with liquids that have constant viscosity and temperature. Mostly the Caterpillar
Raptor Mass Flow Metering System is utilized in the following:

 Filter and leakage detection

 Gas management plants

 Oil refineries

 Pulp and paper processing

 Waste water treatment

 Chemical processing

 Petroleum and oil

In each of these areas, the Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System serves in the best way
possible. Its efficiency and accuracy always inspires its users.

Why The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System Measures Mass Not Volume:

Usually when we talk about liquid we think of its volume as we know that volume is for liquid and
mass is for solids. In contrast, the Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System measures mass of
liquids. Doesn’t it seemweird? Actually, it is mainly because the mass of any substance whether it is
solid, liquid or gas is constant and stable. On the other hand, the volume of liquids is affected by
temperature, pressure and density. This makes measuring mass more reliable and useful. In market
some volumetric flow meters are also available for measuring volume of flowing liquid but due to
their less precision than mass flow meters, their demand is less in market.

Advantages Of The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System:

The Caterpillar Raptor Mass Flow Metering System is a device that has many advantages for its users.
Some most prominent advantages are: It has a simple and easy to handle design. It gives accurate
result. It is available at reasonable price and it provides rapid result.
