SONARtrac® Gas Holdup Monitoring System GH-100

CiDRA's SONARtrac Gas Holdup Monitoring System is a breakthrough in process measurement technology. This submersible system, when used in an a slurry containing bubbles, will enable an on-line, real-time measurement of the gas holdup within the slurry.

Sonar Technology

The SONARtrac Gas Holdup Monitoring System does not utilize ultrasonics; it utilizes patented sonar array processing techniques to listen to, and interpret, acoustic fields generated by the machinery and flow present in virtually all industrial processes. This passive listening approach results in an in-situ measurement of the amount of entrained air/gas present in the process fluid with a high degree of accuracy and repeatability. CiDRA's proprietary "sonar" technology was initially developed for flow and compositional measurement in one of the world's most demanding environments: downhole, offshore oil and gas production.
