Gas Flowmeter

Description

Flowmeters and Measurement Devices for Air and Compressed Gases

These flowmeters, utilizing the principle of thermal mass, measure the flow rate and are therefore referred to as Thermal mass flowmeters.
Features such as rapid response, very high sensitivity in low flow rates, negligible pressure drop, absence of moving parts, easy installation, no obstruction in the flow path, no need for temperature and pressure compensation, and high accuracy across a wide range of airflow, transform thermal mass flowmeters into the best alternative to conventional flowmeters for your specific applications.
Other advantages of this series of flowmeters include a Turn-down Ratio of 100:1, measurement accuracy with a maximum error of 2%, sensitivity in measuring low flow rates, flexibility, reliability in accurately displaying values, and their long lifespan.

Gas Flowmeter

What is a Gas Flowmeter?

A gas flowmeter is an instrument used to measure the flow rate of a gas passing through a pipe, through which other factors, such as the intensity of the fluid’s mass flow and even its heat distribution, can be measured. Utilizing this tool is crucial and determinant in systems that use gas as an input feed or in systems responsible for the transportation of gaseous fluids. In fact, this flowmeter can accurately and with high standards measure the gas displaced between two points and provide the results as either analog needle movement or digital data for the operators.

Is there any flowmeter (gas flowmeter) that is perfect in every aspect?

• The flowmeter (gas flowmeter) should accurately measure any process,
• Be entirely reliable,
• Have a high Turn-Down Ratio,
• Require minimal maintenance and calibration.
• Also, its price should be relatively low, and it should have a long lifespan.
Despite many manufacturers claiming that they produce the best flowmeter, it must be noted that no manufacturer can create a flowmeter that is excellent in every regard. The reason for this is that each flowmeter, based on its construction technology and measurement principle, has its own advantages and disadvantages and is suitable for some applications while unsuitable for others.

Important Factors in Selecting Gas Flowmeters

Generally, all the factors that affect the performance of gases can also disrupt the performance of flowmeters. Therefore, when you intend to purchase a gas flowmeter, you must take into consideration the operational specifications, which include the flow rate range, operational temperature, and working pressure. The flow velocity range is of particular importance, as the device is engineered to function within this boundary and may exhibit poor performance at higher or lower values. The acceptable temperature range is determined based on the predefined operational temperature, while the working pressure indicates the range of pressures at which the device can effectively operate.
