NuFlo Measurement Systems, manufacturer of Barton ®

Chart Recorders, the most rugged and reliable
chart recorders in the world, continues to lead the way in accurate and easy to use gas measurement and
control instrumentation. The Scanner 1140 is a single and dual stream measurement RTU designed
specifically to provide flow monitoring and control for oil and gas gathering and production operations.

Featuring a full range of operator configurable mass, energy, and volume algorithms, the Scanner 1140
simplifies the process of collecting, processing and transmitting data.
