An orifice flow meter is a device capable of measuring the flow rate of steam, gas, natural gas, and liquids. Its orifice plate throttling device does not require calibration; instead, it is manufactured directly according to national standards. So, what should be noted when using an imported orifice flow meter? Today, eletta will give you a detailed introduction.
1. Imported orifice flow meters can measure all single-phase flow rates, and they can also be used to measure some multiphase flows. The installation of an imported orifice flow meter is very simple; it does not require pressure taps and can be directly connected to a differential pressure transmitter or pressure transmitter for measurement. It can also display the instantaneous flow rate, cumulative flow rate, pressure, and temperature of the fluid, and is equipped with various communication interfaces.
2. The structural principle of an imported orifice flow meter is that an orifice plate is installed in the pipeline, and pressure measuring tubes are connected on both sides of the orifice plate, respectively connecting to a U-shaped differential pressure gauge. The orifice flow meter is designed based on the throttling effect of the fluid; it increases the flow rate and reduces the pressure, which can be used as a basis for measurement. At this time, you need to know the data such as the diameter of the pipeline and the sharp-edged orifice diameter of the orifice plate.
3. When using an imported orifice flow meter, first connect the power cord and signal lines. Then open the inlet valve and outlet valve, and ensure that the opening degree of the inlet and outlet valves is consistent. After opening the balancing valve of the stainless steel three-valve group, slowly open the valves at the high and low pressure ends of the orifice plate. After the fluid passes through the orifice flow meter, close the balancing valve of the stainless steel three-valve group.
Through the above content, we have understood the characteristics and precautions for using imported orifice flow meters. When using an imported orifice flow meter, you can operate according to the above methods. You also need to carefully read the instruction manual. If you have any questions, please consult eletta.
