Flow meters are crucial instruments for measuring the flow rate of gases or liquids in a variety of industries. They can still occasionally give inconsistent readings, which can cause measurements to be inaccurate and reduce the overall efficiency of the process

Accurately monitoring the compressed air flow is essential for cost-cutting, energy conservation, and operational optimization.

Large-pipeline water flow measurement does not have to be difficult or expensive. Alternatives to conventional techniques that are reliable and reasonably priced include electromagnetic flow meters, ultrasonic flow meters, and vortex-shedding flow meters

Ultrasonic flow meters are widely used for their non-invasive and accurate measurement of fluid flow. However, their accuracy can be influenced by several factors

Frequent inspections of the sensor, display device or flow computer, and ancillary equipment, together with thorough maintenance, are required to guarantee the flowmeter’s long-term proper performance. Any anomaly should be removed quickly.

Thermal mass flow meters are devices used to measure the mass flow rate of a fluid (liquid or gas) by utilizing the principle of heat transfer.

Are you ready to embrace sustainable energy solutions? Say hello to our latest innovation, the solar-powered flow meters! Solar-Powered: No more reliance on traditional power sources.

An IoT based flow meter is a modern and advanced solution that combines flow metering technology with internet connectivity and cloud computing capabilities.

Discover solutions to common flowmeter problems in environmental applications. Learn how to overcome issues like contamination to temperature fluctuations. Enhance flowmeter accuracy and reliability with expert troubleshooting tips.

In this blog, we will discuss the top 10 benefits of using digital flowmeters in industrial applications.

British thermal units (BTU), a fundamental unit of thermal energy for office and residential buildings, are reliably measured by BTU meters when it comes to chilled water use. For commercial, industrial, and office buildings’ chilled water systems, BTU meters are employed. In this blog, we’ll take a closer look at what a BTU meter is, how it works, and its various uses in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.

This blog explains the working principles of all types of flowmeters used in variety of industry in detail. The amount of water flowing through a pipe is measured using a water flow meter.

In today’s economic climate, energy usage has become a major concern, particularly in terms of energy efficiency. The increase in energy consumption has made it extremely important for industries and end users to measure energy usage as precisely as possible, so as to avoid wastage of energy. There is good reason to use flow meters in several applications to ensure accuracy in energy measurement.

In this article, we will discuss this issue in connection with chilled and heated water applications.

Following the purchase of a flowmeter, 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. Let’s have a look at some typical installation suggestions to help you save money and get the most out of your flowmeters.

Water utilities rely on precise and dependable flow meters, which are critical to the overall water flow process. Flow metering technology is always evolving, and there is a wide range of flow meters and designs to choose from. Each flow meter application is distinct, therefore flow meter selection should not be made just on the basis of the “cheapest bid.” While price is always a consideration, there are other variables to consider while choosing a flow meter.

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.

Thermal Dispersion Mass Flow Meter is a comparatively new concept. In India, nobody
was manufacturing it with indigenous technology. Even today, it is mostly imported in India from the US or some other European countries. The cheaper versions are also available from China. It is consuming a lot of foreign exchange of the country

Steam is extremely difficult to measure due to its intrinsic fluid qualities and practical use, especially across a wide range of flow rates. Steam users are needed to measure steam flow for plant efficiency, energy efficiency, process control, and cost objectives. Energy cost accounting, energy conservation, monitoring, and targeting strategies are now widely used in many industrial and commercial businesses. These tools help you save money on electricity.

Humans consume an enormous amount of water and produce a growing amount of wastewater. This emphasizes environmentally friendly water treatment as well as the use of recycled land. Flow measurement is a fundamental and crucial control parameter for ensuring the availability of safe, high-quality water. Flowmeter technology is used for applications ranging from water storage and transmission to wastewater treatment, leak detection, and pump management.

A flow meter is a tool for determining the volume or mass of a gas or liquid. Flow meters are called by a variety of names depending on the application or functionality, including flow gauge, flow indicator, liquid meter, flow rate sensor, and so on.

What is an Electromagnetic Flow Meter?
An electromagnetic flowmeter is a volumetric flow meter which is often known as a magnetic flowmeter (Magmeter, Flowmeter, Flow Measuring Device, Magflow, etc.). These meters work on the principle of Faraday’s law of induction. It is widely used for the flow measurement of conducting fluids.

What is Ultrasonic Flow Meter?

How does an ultrasonic flow meter work?
In principle, Ultrasonic flow meters make use of sound waves to measure the velocity of fluid moving through a pipe and in turn, measure the volumetric flow of the liquid.

What Is Draft:
Draft means a difference in pressure or differential pressure. The word draft is usually used for very low-pressure differentials up to 1000 mmwc. It is measured with the help of a transducer that converts this small differential pressure to a small electrical signal. This signal, in turn, is amplified to standard values like,
4 – 20 mA, 0 – 5.0 Volts, etc., and then used for display as well as control.

In this series, we shall see the principles of operation of various types of flow meters. First, we will discuss the principles of different types of Mass Flow Meters and later the principles on which the volumetric flow meters are based.

Mass flow and Volumetric flow – When to measure?
In the last article, we discussed how it is important to measure fluid flow. Here we will have a look at the difference between mass flow and volumetric flow. We will also discuss when to check the mass flow and when volumetric flow measurement is sufficient.

Can solids flow?
It is usually said that flow can occur only when the substance is having fluidity. The solids like powder, coal stacks, etc. are not having fluidity, obviously, flow cannot occur for such substances.
