Damage of corrosive medium to Flow meter

    Corrosion is a phenomenon in which a metal is destroyed by chemical action in its environment. The corrosive nature of the media is a serious threat to the flow meter, and only a few flow meters are not subject to corrosive effects.     a.Corrosive media corrode and damage critical parts of the flow meter that are in direct contact with the media.For example, the electromagnetic flow meter electrode causes leakage of the medium due to corrosion, causing the excitation coil to burn out.      b.The critical components of the flow meter are subject to corrosion by corrosive media for a long time, changing the geometry, resulting in reduced accuracy of the meter.For example, after the rotor of the rotameter is corroded by the fluid, the outer shape becomes small, resulting in a low indication of the flow meter.      c.Reduce the life of the flow meter.      d.Corrosive media leakage, if not found in time and timely treatme...

       The measurement of gas flow mainly refers to the measurement of the flow rate of city gas, natural gas, air duct, boiler and various furnace flue gas, flare gas in petroleum refinery and petrochemical industry. The measurement of these flows is important for economic combustion, environmental protection, and trade settlement.       The characteristics of gas flow measurement:       a.Large calibers, straight sections are often difficult to guarantee.       b.Low static pressure, low flow rate, only a small pressure loss is allowed.       c.The flow rate range varies greatly, requiring a large range of gauges.       d.The fluid contains dust and sometimes contains sticky notes of tears.       e.Some fluids are somewhat corrosive.       f.The composition of the gas varies.       g.The fluid temperature is high.       h.Some flue ...

Why is the electromagnetic flowmeter preferred in large-caliber water flow measurements?

图片
Electromagnetic flowmeter plays an extremely important role in the measurement of large diameter water flow because of the following characteristics of the instrument. a.No moving parts, high reliability, long-term stability b.No additional resistance. This is especially important for large diameter flow meters. c.The accuracy of measurement is high.When typical products are v=1m/s, the accuracy can reach ±0.3%R or even ±0.2%R.  d.The range is wide.The range of accuracy is guaranteed to be 40:1 and the measurable range is 200:1. e.Straight pipe requirements are relatively low. This is also important for large diameter pipes. There are a variety of flowmeters that require a straight pipe length of 30D. For pipes with a pipe diameter of 1 m or more, it means that a straight pipe section of 30 m or more is necessary, which is difficult to satisfy in most cases. f.There are large diameter products. The largest domestic DN3000 product is available to meet the needs of large-caliber wate...

Comparison of characteristics and selection of small flow measurement

①There are many kinds of instruments that can be used to measure small flow. The common feature is that the small diameter is easy to be blocked by impurities in the fluid. Therefore, the filter needs to be installed before the flow meter.     ②Calibration is easy.     Due to the small flow measurement range, it is easy to perform off-line calibration or online calibration of the flowmeter in the laboratory. Especially the float flowmeter and the thermal flowmeter.     ③Do not care about pressure loss.     In the measurement of small flow rate, the user generally does not mention the requirement of “the pressure loss is as small as possible”. Therefore, in calculating the opening diameter of the orifice plate, in order to improve the accuracy, a higher differential pressure upper limit is often allowed within the range of the allowable pressure loss. value.    ④Various common instruments are selected for comparison.     Glass t...

What should be paid attention to during the selection and use of positive-displacement flow meter?

  The volumetric flowmeter has unique advantages in petroleum metering. The key reason is the lubrication of the fluid itself, which enables the instrument to operate in a long-term and stable manner with high precision and a large range.      The following points should be noted in the selection and use of positive displacement flowmeters.      a.Accuracy is related to the fluid range.      Accuracy is related to the fluid range. If the same meter has a higher rated accuracy level, it can only be obtained in a lower range. If you want a larger range, you must lower the accuracy level.      b.Liquid viscosity has a certain influence on the measurement error.       Viscosity has less effect than turbine flowmeters, but it still introduces errors.     c.Different types of instruments have large differences in the applicable viscosity range.      Volumetric flowmeters for oil ...

Is your installation environment suitable for ultrasonic flowmeters?

In recent years, ultrasonic flow measurement technology has developed quite maturely, and the price is also decreasing. Its outstanding advantages and application fields are mainly reflected in the following aspects.      The ultrasonic flow sensor can not directly contact the measured medium, and the high pressure of the fluid, the inclusion of more impurities, and the harsh conditions such as easy solidification and easy crystallization do not pose a threat to the flowmeter. In recent years, ultrasonic flowmeters have been widely used in the measurement of gasoline and fuel flow.      Although the clamping ultrasonic flowmeter is not accurate, it is easy to install and is often used for flow monitoring and process control.In recent years, some companies have introduced multi-channel ultrasonic flowmeters with an accuracy of ±0.5% R. Some apply to gases, some apply to clean liquids,can be used for trade transfer.      In the application of u...
