Explain some places where turbine flowmeters should not be used

Today, with the rapid development of the industry, HKT turbine flowmeter is a frequently used measuring instrument in industrial measurement, which brings great convenience to the rapid development of the industry. However, in the measurement process, not all places can be measured in the measurement process. In some places, the measured data is inaccurate due to the measurement medium. The following describes some places where the turbine flowmeter should not be used.

When measuring liquid, the pipeline pressure is not high and the flow rate is large. The pressure on the downstream side of the instrument may be close to the saturated vapor pressure, which may cause air pockets. For example, liquid ammonia can freely flow from the high position tank, and it is not suitable to be installed at the discharge port. ;

Fluids containing more impurities, such as circulating cooling water, river water, sewage, fuel oil, etc.;

Locations where the flow rate changes drastically: such as boiler water supply systems, gas supply systems with air hammers, etc.;

In the vicinity of electric welders, electric motors, relays with contacts, etc., where there is serious electromagnetic interference;

The length of the upstream and downstream straight pipe sections is seriously insufficient, such as in the engine room of the ship; if the boiler automatic water supply system frequently pumps and stops the pump, it will impact the impeller and cause the sensor to be damaged quickly;

Care should be taken when selecting corrosive or abrasive media. It is best to contact the manufacturer first.

The above is the introduction of some working conditions that turbine flowmeters are not suitable for use. These locations will lead to inaccurate measurement during measurement. It is hoped that after reading the above content, it will be avoided in these places in your future measurements.

Now there are many manufacturers of flow meters on the market. There are large manufacturers and small factories that cause the quality of flow meters in the market to be uneven. Therefore, when purchasing, we must choose a meter manufacturer with excellent quality, excellent reputation and perfect after-sales.
