Introduction A factory experienced repeated sensor failures in their vortex steam flow meters, with the failure occurring after some time despite initial checks. Each time before use, they ensured that any condensate was removed, yet the issue persisted. Is the problem with the quality of the vortex flow meter, or was there an oversight during […]

Clamp-on ultrasonic flow meters are non-invasive flow measurement tools, where the correct installation distance plays a critical role in ensuring measurement accuracy. Based on industry practices and technical standards, the installation distance must meet three core requirements: pipe straight length, interference avoidance, and sensor spacing. These factors are essential for ensuring stable signal transmission. 1.

Introduction Flow meters used in trade settlements must be regularly calibrated to ensure accurate readings. While factory calibration ensures the accuracy of a flow meter, installation-related issues can still affect its performance once the meter is set up on-site. On-site calibration, using portable standard devices, is a more reliable method to guarantee accuracy in real-world

Mass flow meters play a crucial role in accurately measuring multi-phase fluid mass flow. Their key advantages—insensitivity to changes in temperature, pressure, and viscosity—make them indispensable in the petrochemical industry, spanning the entire production chain from crude oil extraction to the dispatch of finished products. These meters are especially well-suited for high-temperature, high-pressure, corrosive, and

In the field of industrial flow measurement, differential pressure flowmeters are widely used due to their simple structure and durability. Among them, the segmental orifice flowmeter, as a special throttling device, shows unique advantages when dealing with dirty media containing bubbles, solid particles, or easily crystallizable substances. This article delves into the working principle, advantages,

The installation of rotor flowmeters directly impacts measurement accuracy and service life. The following technical requirements must be strictly adhered to, with key details illustrated by the diagrams provided. 1. Core Installation Principles 1.1. Flow Direction and Vertical Alignment The rotor flowmeter must be installed vertically, with fluid flowing upwards through the tapered tube. The

When measuring gas or steam flow with a vortex flowmeter, it is essential to measure the fluid pressure. Most manufacturers recommend placing the pressure measurement point downstream of the vortex sensor. However, some manufacturers suggest it can be placed upstream. So, which position is ideal for the pressure measurement point? Why the Pressure Measurement Point

Flow meters are the backbone of modern industrial automation and process control. Whether in chemical production, water treatment, or oil and gas transmission, precise flow measurement ensures safety, product quality, and cost efficiency.However, even the most advanced flow meters drift over time due to wear, temperature stress, and process conditions.Establishing proper calibration intervals is therefore

Turbine flow meters are widely used for their high accuracy, repeatability, and reliability in measuring fluid flow. Proper maintenance is crucial to ensure their long-term performance and reliability. This article outlines key steps and considerations for maintaining turbine flow meters. 1. Gradual Startup to Prevent Damage When putting the flow meter into operation: Slowly open
