Emerson’s New Acoustic Particle Monitor Minimizes Erosion Risk to Help Optimize Oil and Gas Production

SHAKOPEE, Minn. (March 18, 2024) – Today Emerson announced the release of the Rosemount™ SAM42 Acoustic Particle Monitor for measuring the amount of entrained sand in the output from oil and gas wells. The monitor can detect extremely low concentrations of entrained sand in challenging conditions with a high level of measurement repeatability and sensitivity. Accurate real-time data helps minimize erosion risk, allowing producers to maximize throughput without compromising asset safety.  An all-in-one design features onboard data processing, explosion-proof protection, and simple installation with no pipe penetration needed.
