Is it possible to measure pressurized air flow?

  Compressed air flow measurement Most industrial facilities require compressed air, whether for basic operations like air tool operation or for more complex tasks like pneumatic control operation. Compressed air is one of the most expensive energy sources within a factory. What is compressed air? Air that has been condensed or compressed to a pressure greater than that of the atmosphere, is known as compressed air. You compress air by taking a certain mass of air and compressing it into a smaller space. As the gas strives to return to its original volume in this smaller space, it creates pressure. Compressed air is costlier than steam. Furthermore, unlike steam, which is visible at the leaking spots, it is invisible when it seeps. This leakage is also a source of energy waste. It consumes more electricity than any other type of equipment, and it accounts for a large share of all electricity consumption in any industry. Where do we use compressed air flow? When air is compressed in a s

5 Things to keep in mind when installing a flow meter

        Install the flow meter yourself Following the purchase of a flow meter , proper installation and calibration are the subsequent stages in maintaining the equipment over its lifetime and lowering the cost of ownership to maximize the total facility’s cost savings. Once you’ve decided on the ideal flow meter for each fluid and application, making sure that it is installed correctly, is crucial for accurate flow readings. If your flow meter “doesn’t function,” it’s likely that it wasn’t installed correctly. Let’s have a look at some typical installation suggestions to help you save money and get the most out of your flow meters. 1- Check the measuring fluid conditions- Make sure the fluid you’re measuring is a single-phase fluid, which means it’s either a gas or a liquid. If the fluid is two-phased, the flow meter must be selected with the expectation of measurement under such conditions in mind. Also check the conductivity of the fluid, because some flow meters work well only

Principle and features of Electromagnetic Glow Meter

  What is an   Electromagnetic Flow Meter? An Electromagnetic Flow Meter is a volumetric flow meter which is often known as a magnetic flow meter (Magmeter, Flowmeter, Flow Measuring Device, Magflow, etc.). This meter works on the principle of Faraday’s law of induction. It’s a transducer that uses the voltage created across a liquid by its flow via a magnetic field to measure fluid flow. It is widely used for the flow measurement of conducting fluids. These are used for the measurement of drinking water as well as wastewater applications, for any dirty liquids that are conductive or water-based, raw water, etc. What is the working principle of an Electromagnetic Flow Meter? A set of coils generates the magnetic field in an Electromagnetic Flow Meter. An electric voltage is induced in the conductive liquid as it passes through the electromagnetic field, and it is directly proportional to its velocity. Both the liquid flow direction and the electromagnetic field direction are perpendic
