Hoffer Custody Transfer Meters - A Perfect Fit in India
Hoffer Flow Controls Flowmeter sizes Hoffer Flow Controls
has completed work on a project for Reliance in Jumnagar,
India. The scope of the project involved the supply of 57
custody transfer turbine flowmeters along with meter runs,
signal conditioners and totalizers.The API Series of custody
transfer turbine flowmeters was selected by the user. The
meter systems supplied will be used for billing purposes at
a newly commissioned refinery in Jamnagar.

As with all custody transfer flow applications, good
accuracy and repeatability were critical issues. The
Hoffer API Series of flowmeters provides a repeatability
of +/-0.02%. Two different levels of “linearity”
are available on the API Series of flowmeters. The standard
API Series flowmeter provides for +/-0.25% of reading
linearity. The “premium” API Series flowmeters
provide for +/-0.15% linearity. This customer selected
Hoffer flowmeters at both levels of linearity.They plan
to use the premium +/-0.15% flowmeters as prover meters
to calibrate the flowmeters that will be in daily use.
Flow meter sizes ranged from 2 1/2" through 4".
The flowmeters will be used primarily for loading rack
service of light hydrocarbon products. Both road tanker
and rail car load systems have been installed.
Additional features sited by the customer in the selection
process of the flowmeters were rugged construction and
the hydraulically balanced rotor to eliminate thrust
bearing friction. These features allow for superior
linearity and long service life. This customer also
specified that all instrumentation supplied was to be
CE compliant.Hoffer was able to meet this requirement.
