Flow meters are widely used across various industries to measure and control the flow rate of gases or liquids. Calibration and recalibration of flow meters are crucial for production processes. Flow meter calibration involves comparing the actual measurement results with higher-precision measurements to verify and adjust the flow meter’s accuracy. Correcting potential measurement errors and … Read more
Best Technology Guide to Thermal Mass Flow Meters. A thermal mass flowmeter (TMF) is a gas flowmeter designed based on the principles of thermal diffusion or heat conduction. It directly measures the mass flow of gas without the need for additional temperature and pressure compensation. Sino-Inst’s Thermal mass flowmeters are the preferred flowmeter for gases. … Read more
Best Technology Guide to Ultrasonic Flow Meters. An ultrasonic flow meter is a volumetric flow meter that measures the flow rate of a medium based on the effect of the flowing medium on the ultrasonic velocity or ultrasonic pulse. There are two types of ultrasonic flow meter technologies: Doppler and transit-time. We will mainly introduce … Read more
Coriolis Mass Flow Meter — Working Principle, Installation & Price. A Coriolis mass flow meter reads the Coriolis effect to measure mass flow directly — the same physics a fuel depot uses to prove a tanker’s load or a chemical plant uses to close a batch. Output is mass, density, and volume in one 4-20 … Read more
Differential Pressure Flow Meters (also called DP flow meters or differential flow meters) measure flow rate by detecting the pressure drop across a restriction in the pipe. A throttling device — such as an orifice plate, Venturi tube, wedge, V-cone, or averaging Pitot tube — creates this pressure drop. The bigger the flow, the bigger … Read more
Best Technology Guide to Vortex Flow Meters. Vortex flow meter is a kind of velocity flowmeter, based on the Karman (Von Kármán Effect designed by vortex principle research). It is mainly used for flow measurement of medium fluid in industrial pipelines, such as flow control and metering of various media such as gas, steam or … Read more
A turbine flow meter is a volume flowmeter that uses the mechanical energy of the liquid or gas to rotate a rotor in the flow stream. The velocity of the turbine rotor is proportional to the velocity of the fluid passing through the flow meter. The frequency of the signal relates directly to flow rate. … Read more
A Magnetic flow meter, also called electromagnetic flow meter, mag flow meter, or magmeters. A magnetic flow meter is a volumetric flow meter that works with principle of magnetic technology. Magnetic flow meters do not have any moving parts. An electromagnetic flowmeter consists of two parts: Electrode (sensor) and Transmitter. Installation types of magmeters could … Read more
