Excellence and Quality

As a quality manufacturer of revolutionary measurement technology, we are committed to 100% performance, quality, and safety. We are awarded to the highest international standards and certified to ISO 9001:2015 and the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU (DRG). As an audited manufacturer and welding company, we have been awarded the welding quality requirements of ISO 3834. We are certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in accordance with the ATEX product directive.

1. What certifications do Heinrichs’ flow meters hold for use in hazardous environments, and how do they ensure safety?2024-09-12T08:55:09+00:00

Heinrichs’ flow meters hold certifications that ensure their safety and functionality in hazardous environments. These include ATEX (Directive 2014/34/EU), IECEx, and FM approvals, which are essential for industries handling explosive gases, vapors, or dust. These certifications confirm that the flow meters are designed to meet stringent safety standards, preventing ignition risks in such environments.

The flow meters feature various safety measures, such as flameproof enclosures (Ex d) and intrinsic safety (Ex ia), ensuring the devices can safely operate in explosive atmospheres, particularly in sectors like oil, gas, and petrochemicals. Heinrichs also manufactures flow meters using special materials like Tantalum and Hastelloy, offering additional protection against corrosive environments, making them well-suited for applications where safety and durability are critical​.

2. Can Heinrichs’ flow meters be integrated with modern SCADA systems, and what communication protocols do they support?2024-09-12T08:55:51+00:00

Heinrichs flow meters are designed for seamless integration with modern SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems, supporting various communication protocols such as Modbus, HART, Profibus, and Foundation Fieldbus. These protocols enable easy integration with SCADA and DCS (Distributed Control Systems), allowing real-time data monitoring, diagnostics, and device configuration. Additionally, advanced features like HART and Fieldbus protocols facilitate predictive maintenance, improving operational efficiency and reducing downtime. This wide range of communication options ensures compatibility with diverse industrial platforms​.

3. How do Heinrichs flow meters ensure measurement stability in environments with fluctuating temperature or pressure?2024-09-12T08:56:57+00:00

Heinrichs flow meters guarantee measurement stability under variable temperature or pressure conditions through the use of advanced compensatory methods. Their Coriolis flow meters utilize temperature compensation to adjust for variations in the elasticity of the flow tube, hence ensuring precise mass flow measurements throughout a wide temperature spectrum. Vortex flow meters use integrated pressure sensors (on request) that dynamically modify readings to accommodate density fluctuations, ensuring consistent measurements despite rapid pressure changes. These attributes are essential for applications with oil, gas and especially saturated and superheated steam, where operational circumstances may fluctuate considerably. 

4. What are the typical lead times for custom orders, and what factors can influence delivery times for flow meters?2024-09-12T08:58:22+00:00

Custom orders for flow meters, particularly those requiring specialist materials such as Tantalum or Hastelloy, typically have lead times of 12 to 16 weeks. On the other hand, normal meters construct from stainless steel are generally supplied within 6 to 8 weeks. Delivery timelines may be affected by several factors, including the availability of raw materials, complexity of special configurations (e.g., high-pressure flanges or customized specifications), and any supplementary regulatory compliance testing. Heinrichs is dedicated to collaborating with clients to ensure timely deadlines and reduce interruptions. To obtain the most accurate and up-to-date information, it is advisable to reach out to us directly via mail (info@heinrichs.eu) or submit your request of call back.

5. What customization options are available for Heinrichs flow meters, and how do they enhance performance in specific industrial applications?2024-09-12T09:09:34+00:00

Heinrichs provides a variety of customization options to cater to the specific requirements of different industries. These include:

  • Customized Materials: Options such as Tantalum and Hastelloy are available, offering enhanced resistance to corrosion and support other special requirements based on the process conditions (e.g. high pressure).
