FMD Ships Meter Prover for Carbon Capture CO2 Application

Flow Management Devices (FMD) Advances Carbon Capture with Small Volume Prover for CO₂ Application

Flow Management Devices (FMD), a pioneer in small volume meter provers, has made a significant contribution to Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) industry. They’ve shipped their FMD-007 small volume meter prover to TÜV SÜD National Engineering Laboratory, marking a significant step in CCUS technology.

TÜV SÜD is developing the world’s first traceable CO₂ liquid/dense phase calibration facility in East Kilbride, Scotland. This facility, part of the EU-funded ENCASE project, will ensure the precision of CO2 flow measurements, of CO₂ flow measurements, a critical aspect of global CCUS applications.

The FMD-007 meter prover, equipped with a high-pressure and low-temperature kit, will operate under extreme conditions to maintain CO₂ in its liquid state. This prover will be a key component in the laboratory, verifying the performance of various meter types.

The FMD small volume prover will provide dynamic, traceable calibration of meters under live CO₂ process conditions. This ensures the most accurate CO₂ measurement possible, enhancing flow measurement accuracy across the CCUS value chain.

The FMD-007 meter prover specifications include a flow rate of 0-700 GPM, a temperature range of -50^oF to 120^oF (-45^oC to 49^oC) for the low-temperature kit, and a high-pressure kit rated for up to 3600 psi.
