What Is Temperature Compensation and Pressure Compensation for Flow Meters?

The principle of temperature compensation and pressure compensation of the flow meter is based on the changes in physical parameters such as density and viscosity of the fluid at different temperatures and pressures, which affects the measurement accuracy of the flow meter. In order to eliminate this effect, temperature and pressure compensation is required. When we purchase a flow meter, we often encounter temperature compensation and pressure compensation configurations, especially for measuring gases, steam, etc. Next, let’s analyze in detail what is the temperature compensation and pressur......

Differences Between Thermocouples: Type S, K, N, J, E, T

Thermocouples have the advantages of simple structure, wide measurement range, and easy processing of output signals. Therefore, thermocouples have become our preferred sensor for temperature measurement. The graduation numbers of thermocouples mainly include S, R, B, N, K, E, J, T, etc. Among them, S, R, and B belong to precious metal thermocouples, and N, K, E, J, and T belong to cheap metal thermocouples. So what’s the difference? Understanding the Differences between Thermocouples can help us choose the most suitable thermocouple. RFQ Table of ContentsWhat is pressure compensation?Wh......

Application Case: Mass Flow Meter Measures Lime Slurry Flow and Density

A power plant uses lime slurry as a desulfurizer. Gypsum or calcium sulfate is formed by reacting with sulfur dioxide in the flue gas. Thus, the purification and emission control of harmful gases in exhaust gas can be achieved. Measuring the density (concentration) of lime slurry is to ensure that the appropriate amount of desulfurizer can be accurately added during the desulfurization process. This ensures the desulfurization effect and the stability of equipment operation.

Guide: Types of Mass Flow Meters

There are 2 common Types of Mass Flow Meters: Coriolis command flow meter and thermal mass flow meter. Mass Flow Meters accurately measure the mass flow of liquids or gases within pipes. A mass flow meter is more accurate than a traditional volumetric flow meter because it is not affected by factors such as temperature, pressure, density, etc. Usually used in industrial process control and flow regulation, batching, measurement, detection, etc. The volume of fluid is a function of fluid temperature and pressure and is a dependent variable, while the quality of fluid is a quantity that does not......

Fluid Flow Sensor | Types and Product List

What is a fluid flow sensor? A fluid flow sensor is an instrument used to measure the flow rate or volume of flowing gas, steam, liquid, or solids. Based on various physical principles, such as mechanical or electromagnetic, fluid sensors measure changes in the fluid and calculate the flow rate. Fluid flow sensors can be divided into four categories based on the type of medium. They are used to measure and monitor the flow of gas, steam, liquid, or solids. RFQ Below, we will show our available flow meters according to different media. Table of ContentsWhat is pressure compensation?What is temp......

What Is Variable Area Flow Meter?

A Variable Area Flow Meter is a flow meter that can measure the volumetric flow of liquid, gas or steam. It is a type of differential pressure flowmeter. Also called a rotameter. Within the Variable Area Flow Meter, gas or liquid moves the float until equilibrium is reached. The user can read the gas or liquid flow rate from the scale next to the tube or from the scale on the tube. Variable Area Flow Meter is a cost-effective flow measurement solution for small diameter, low flow gas, liquid, and steam.
