Great Tips for Flowmeter Selection



reliable flow measurement solution
Selecting the best flowmeter is very important to achieving the most accurate measurements and continuing success of your equipment. Every application needs a different combination of flow meter and switch depending on various factors listed below.
1.) The type of fluid or gas to be measured
2.) Inertness between the flow meter material and the fluid or gas passing through it
3.) The nature of the process — whether intermittent or perpetual
4.) Circumstances of the surroundings — whether working in hazardous situation
5.) Extent of precision required
6.) Maximum and minimum flow rates
7.) Viscosity of the fluid or gas
8.) Temperature of the fluid or gas
9.) Type of readings required

The 8000XHT/XLT | Flow Rate Measurement Instrument

Image
The 8000XHT/XLT (eXtreme High Temperature/eXtreme Low Temperature) Flow Rate Measurement Instrument has been designed to work in harsh environments. It is capable of operating with fluid temperatures from   -80C   to   +200C   as well as in extremely high EMF (ElectroMagnetic Field) environments ( 10V/m, >189 GHz without 1/16” LED hole & Power Fields of 400A for 100–240VAC 50Hz/60Hz ) and   Mil-Std 810 Vibration & Shock   (20G). REAL WORLD APPLICATIONS Semiconductor processes have been changing. At the time of the 8000RFR product, Lam Research mentioned that one of their customers was cycling the fluid temperature by 40C during the Semiconductor Manufacturing Process. TESTING & TEST EQUIPMENT Proteus is also developing a -60C to +80C slow cycle life test stand per Lam Research requirements. A new chiller system is ordered Special valves & hoses for leak-free from -60C to +200C are ordered A Coriolis meter designed for cryogenic applications (-196C t

Different Types of Standard Liquid Flowmeter

Image
Instruments that are used for measuring the flow rate of a particular liquid, flowing through a pipe, are called flow meters. The measurements can be done based on either the mass flow rate or the volumetric flow rate and the units in which it is measured are kilogram per second and liters per second respectively. The standard liquid flowmeter is used in various fields and has significant utility. In the medical field, industrial sector, like food processing, semiconductor fabrication, water management, etc. There are various types of flow meters, depending on the principle that administers the application. Ultrasonic, Mechanical, Pressure, and Electromagnetic are the types of liquid flowmeters. Open & Closed Channel Flow The flow of any liquid can be classified into open or closed pipe flow. The open channel in the free-flowing stream is not restricted by any wall and the flow is controlled by the force of gravity. The fluid flow in the closed channel occurs due to the p
