It performs custody-transfer grade hydrocarbon liquid and gas flow calculations following AGA, API industry standards. It acts as a dedicated co-processor, handling flow computation, volume accumulation, event logging and historical archiving, offloading heavy math tasks from ControlLogix CPU. It features dual isolated serial Modbus ports for communication with remote instruments and SCADA systems. Technical data sourced directly from official ProSoft MVI56-AFC datasheet \u0026amp; user manual. Supplied by SHLY-PLC, an independent industrial automation distributor; each unit undergoes visual inspection and functional testing before shipment for retrofit and spare replacement projects.
