One of the significant innovations in measurement instruments has been the addition of non-intrusive measurements. These instruments don’t require penetrations into the process to collect measurements, thus simplifying installation, improving maintenance, and increasing flexibility to relocate the measurements if required.
This 2:30 YouTube video, “Emerson’s Non-Intrusive Measurement Instrumentation,” showcases the range of non-intrusive measurements, including temperature, acoustic, corrosion & erosion, and flow technologies.

No more disrupting the process. No more fears of process leaks. No more shutdowns needed to install various measurement instruments.
With Emerson’s non-intrusive measurement instrumentation, you can obtain flow, temperature, and acoustic measurements as well as continuously monitor for corrosion and erosion without having to touch the process.
These instruments can be installed easily and quickly and placed virtually anywhere, with the ability to be retrofitted or moved at any time, all without having to shut down the process. They eliminate safety concerns such as potential leak points or other hazards that can occur with intrusive measurements.
In addition, they require little to no maintenance and reduce the quantity of unique spares to stock, helping you save on total cost of ownership. Best of all, there is no compromising on the accuracy, repeatability, and reliability of the measurements as they offer comparable or improved performance to legacy practices or intrusive methods.
Emerson offers the largest portfolio of non-intrusive measurement instrumentation in the industry. This portfolio includes Flexim Clamp-on Ultrasonic Flow Meters, Rosemount X-well Technology for process temperature measurement, the Rosemount 708 Wireless Acoustic Transmitter, Rosemount Wireless Corrosion and Erosion Transmitters, and the Rosemount SAM42 Acoustic Particle Monitor.
Installing non-intrusive measurement instruments prove especially advantageous when operators are looking to facilitate plant projects, perform upgrades and turnarounds, supplement manual inspections and measurements, and optimize for safety and efficiency as no process downtime is needed for installation or maintenance.
These instruments are also beneficial when in need of emergency or temporary measurements, measurements on challenging applications or conditions such as extreme temperatures, viscous fluids and large line sizes, or when retrofitting or moving your measurements to more optimal locations.
Obtaining measurements has never been safer, easier, or more flexible. Optimize your processes and maintenance efforts using Emerson’s non-intrusive measurement instrumentation. To learn more, visit our website.
