How to calibrate and maintain flow meters? Calibration cycle, inspection process and maintenance tips

Over time, flowmeters can lose accuracy! Fouling, aging, and environmental interference not only affect measurement data but can also threaten product quality and process safety. Wondering how often to calibrate your flowmeter? Which testing method is most accurate? This article explains the differences between on-site calibration, standard fluid testing, zero-point calibration, and factory calibration. It also provides optimal flowmeter calibration cycles and maintenance for industries like food, chemical, water treatment, and semiconductors, extending equipment life, reducing the risk of failure, and ensuring consistently stable and reliable measurement data.

How to choose the type of flow meter? An article to understand the application and selection of various flow meters

A table to understand the selection of flowmeter types: electromagnetic flowmeter, Karman vortex flowmeter, mass flowmeter, impeller flowmeter, turbine flowmeter, area flowmeter, diaphragm flowmeter, ultrasonic flowmeter, Coriolis flowmeter , pitot tube flowmeter, orifice flowmeter, open channel flowmeter

Want to know how to choose a flow meter? Which flow meter should be used for different fluids (gas, liquid, oil)? How to choose suitable equipment for high temperature, high pressure and viscous fluid? From type comparison, pipe diameter specifications, connection methods to electrical output, we can help you quickly find the most suitable flow meter type! Different types of flow meters are suitable for different application scenarios. For example, the electromagnetic type is suitable for conductive liquids, and the turbine type is suitable for oil and clean water. Ensure you choose the most appropriate flow meter with a detailed specification comparison to improve measurement accuracy and extend equipment life.

【Automatic control school】Flow meter series: Insertion flowmeter
What are the factors that affect the measurement error of the insertion flowmeter
Insertion flowmeter is a new type of flow measurement instrument developed on the basis of pipeline flowmeter. It has the advantages of low installation and operation cost, and can be installed under pressure. It can be installed without stopping water. Therefore, in some pipeline flowmeters In the occasions where the installation of the meter is difficult and the installation cost is high, the insertion flowmeter is often used to solve the flow measurement problem, so this measurement method provides a good solution for the flow measurement. However, when the insertion flowmeter is used in the field, due to the design defects of the flowmeter itself and the very complex installation conditions on site, the insertion flowmeter cannot achieve accurate and reliable flow measurement well.
