Vortex flowmeter is used by many industries for its simple structure, small maintenance, constant accuracy, easy operation and wide application range.

When choosing the right ammonia flow meter for you, several factors need to be considered to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results and the reliability of the equipment. Here’s a detailed buying guide:

Intelligent vortex flowmeters can measure air. Vortex flowmeter is a new flowmeter for flow measurement based on Karman vortex principle. It has good medium adaptability and can directly measure the volume flow of various media (including air). When measuring air, the vortex flowmeter generates regular vortices through the triangular column vortex generator set in the fluid, and the frequency of these vortices is proportional to the average velocity of the measured medium, so that the air flow can be calculated.

Integrated intelligent vortex flowmeter troubleshooting

In the production process, each of the intelligent vortex flowmeters has passed a strict quality inspection, and each flow real flow calibration. If the meter does not work properly during use, please follow these steps to check.

Vortex flowmeter is widely used because of its wide range, small pressure loss, medium accuracy, linear output, no moving parts, high reliability, small maintenance, medium low price, relatively high performance and price characteristics.

When the vortex flowmeter has no liquid flow in the pipeline, the receiver counts abnormally due to the noise generated by the pipeline vibration, and the sensitivity of the instrument should be adjusted.

Vortex flowmeter is a commonly used flow meter, the use of any instrument is inseparable from daily maintenance and maintenance, whether it is its own failure or interference by external factors, we calmly respond to the occurrence of failure.

There are often some error factors in the calibration and use of flowmeter coefficient, which affect the accuracy of gas metering. The following are the factors that affect the accuracy of the steam flowmeter.

When selecting the right air flow meter product, a number of factors need to be considered to ensure that the selected product can meet the actual needs and has good performance. Here is a detailed buying guide to help you choose the best air flowmeter:

vortex flow meter is a specialized instrument designed for measuring the flow rate of liquids, gases, or steam in various industrial processes. It operates on the principle of the Von Kármán effect, where a bluff body (typically a shedder bar or a blunt object) is placed in the flow stream. As the fluid passes by the bluff body, vortices are formed alternately on either side, creating a pattern. The frequency of these vortices is directly proportional to the velocity of the flowing fluid, allowing the vortex flow meter to accurately determine the flow rate.

1. Vibration effect

Compressed air is generated by air compressor or high pressure fan. When these devices are in operation, they all have varying degrees of vibration, and sometimes the vibration is relatively strong, and this vibration is transmitted through the connecting pipe. When selecting and determining the position of the vortex flowmeter, this influencing factor should be fully considered. In various detection methods, the anti-vibration performance of the instrument is not the same due to different detection components. For the vortex street of the detection element, the vibration resistance can reach 0.5~1G. When determining the installation position of the vortex flowmeter, it should be as far away from the power equipment such as air compressors and fans as possible.
