User configurable; defaulting to 200 audit events, 60 different types of audits

The Thermo Scientific™ AutoFLEX offers a flexible platform allowing operators from wellhead to consumer increase their ability to monitor instrument performance, flow throughput, and other metrics via increased processing power. This helps users avoid costly unplanned downtime, make better maintenance decisions based on collected data, and potentially save tens of millions of dollars per year on lost productivity and repairs.

Features include:

Optimal scalability
Enhanced security
CO2 measurement calculations

Scalable All-in-One Platform: From simple wellhead measurement to natural gas storage facility, the Thermo Scientific™ AutoFLEX flow computer coupled with the AutoCONFIG interface facilitates measurement, control, and monitoring of all critical points within a measurement system.

Maximum cybersecurity protection: Avoid unwanted intrusion with enhanced security including compliance to California SB-327, obscure Password, and Password Table Encryption. Remote monitoring of Usernames and Passwords also now available.

Full Suite of Gas and Liquid Calculations: AutoCONFIG contains a full suite of gas and liquid calculations all complying to the latest API 21.1 and 21.2 standards. Ability to measure Supercritical fluids such as CO2 and Ethylene via various measurement technologies is also included in this suite of calculations.

Foire aux questions (FAQ)

Can the AutoFLEX flow computer support multi-stream and large-scale measurement applications?

Yes. The Thermo Scientific AutoFLEX Flow Computer is designed for scalable oil and gas measurement applications, supporting multiple chassis, configurable I/O modules, and integration with a wide range of field devices and analyzers. The platform can be used for applications including multi-well monitoring, pipeline measurement, storage operations, separator monitoring, and custody transfer systems where flexibility and expansion capability are important.

How does the AutoFLEX flow computer help standardize oil and gas measurement operations?

The Thermo Scientific AutoFLEX Flow Computer uses a modular architecture that can help organizations apply consistent measurement and control strategies across upstream, midstream, and downstream operations. A common hardware platform and shared AutoCONFIG software interface may help reduce training requirements, simplify maintenance, minimize spare parts inventory, and improve consistency across multiple sites and applications.

What communication and connectivity options are available on the AutoFLEX flow computer?

The Thermo Scientific AutoFLEX Flow Computer supports multiple industrial communication interfaces including Ethernet, RS-232, RS-485, and USB connectivity. The modular platform is designed to integrate with SCADA systems, PLCs, analyzers, and plant control systems while supporting multiple simultaneous connections. Its flexible I/O architecture allows operators to scale configurations for applications ranging from single well pads to large pipeline and custody transfer stations.

How does AutoCONFIG software work with the AutoFLEX flow computer?

Thermo Scientific AutoCONFIG software provides a common configuration and interface platform for the AutoSERIES family of flow computers, including AutoFLEX. The software enables operators to configure flow calculations, monitor multiple wells or meter runs, review historical data, and manage measurement parameters without requiring advanced programming. AutoCONFIG software can help simplify training, improve operational consistency, and support deployment across oil and gas measurement applications.

What flow calculation standards does the AutoFLEX flow computer support?

The Thermo Scientific AutoFLEX Flow Computer supports industry-standard flow calculations and gas property calculations used in hydrocarbon measurement applications. Approved calculation methods include AGA 3, AGA 7, AGA 8 Gross Method 2, AGA 8 Detailed, AGA 8 Part 2 (GERG-2008), NX-19, GPA 2172, ISO-6976, and GOST. These standards help support accurate custody transfer measurement, gas compressibility calculations, and energy flow determination in oil and gas operations.
