Liquid Flow Meters and Switches

Proteus Industries provides a reliable flow measurement solution to any oil, gas, liquid or steam operation. The quality of our flow meters can truly be seen at gathering facilities where a custody transfer of millions of gallons of products is required for transfer from one place to another on a daily schedule. An example of this is crude oil. A gathering station pumps up to 10,000 gallons of crude oil every minute. If a flow meter had a measurement error of just 0.02%, it will result in a loss of 68 barrels every day. A single barrel costs $40, so this will translate to a loss of $1 million every year. Taking steps to ensure that you are getting a reliable flow measurement solution is key to avoiding disastrous mistakes. One of accomplishing this is by taking steps to prevent measurement inaccuracy. This can be achieved by ensuring that instrumentation is calibrated properly before it enters operation. In today’s market, companies have access to numerous types of measur...

Flow meters are the equipment for the accurate measurement of the flow rate of the fluid passing through a pipe or an open space. The measurement can be made either on the basis of the mass flow rate or the volumetric flow rate. The rate of flow can be altered and distributed with the help of particular equipment called the flow control valve sensors. It provides accurate and programmable information, which helps in the execution of the distribution. Various industries have an abundant option of the control valve sensors to choose from. On the basis of the application and the purpose, the type of the sensors is chosen, which gives errorless productivity. Design of the Flow Control Valves The   flow control valve sensors   have diversified designs, from simple openings to refined electro-hydraulic valves. These different compositions of the valve sensors enable it to automatically adjust itself according to the change in temperature and pressure. The control valves are ...

In today’s economic environment, energy usage has become a huge concern, particularly on energy efficiency and using flow meters to guarantee accuracy in energy measurement. The upsurge in energy usage demands industries and end users to measure energy usage as accurately as possible. In chilled and heated water applications, the installation of a temperature and flow-measuring device is required. Linked to a BTU computer, the data enables end users to determine how energy is being used, where and how it is used and take steps towards improvement accordingly. However, there are certain limiting factors, which can affect the accuracy of flow meter systems. The following is a discussion on various technologies that can be used to improve flow meter accuracy: Temperature Sensory Accuracy Let us take an application from matched-pair temperature-sensing technology. It is accurate to (+/-) 0.01% of span (0.02 F). The accuracy of both sensors combined is around 0.04...

Through placing a valve in the liquid flow’s path, control valves regulate the liquids’ flow rate through pipelines in a system. This valve typically provides resistance to the liquid flow, where process control restrains the flow and resistance by a signal borrowed from sensors in a plant. We must note here that when a manufacturer supplies a control valve, it must then be attached to an actuator which utilizes this control signal for activating the ultimate control component. Control Valve Classifications Control valves contain two primary parts – the body and the stem . The body incorporates the housing characteristic which brings in the supply line and the delivery line for joining together. The stem incorporates the plug and the valve stem and seat. Transformation in the valve, functioned by the stem, takes place to begin the resistance of flow. The plug and the stem shift in the upward direction, causing elimination in the size of the opening place between th...
