What Type of Ultrasonic Flow Meter is Best for Clean Fluids?
Choosing the wrong type of ultrasonic flow meter for clean fluids can lead to unnecessary costs and reduced accuracy. For clean fluids without slurries or bubbles, transit-time ultrasonic flow meters are the best choice, offering accuracies up to ±0.5% and excellent repeatability. Transit-Time Flow Measurement Let me share my experience in helping customers select the […]
Is Ultrasonic Flow Meter the Best Choice for Wastewater Measurement?
Measuring wastewater flow accurately presents unique challenges due to varying solid content, corrosive materials, and harsh environments. Ultrasonic flow meters, particularly Doppler type, are ideal for wastewater measurement as they operate non-intrusively and handle fluids with suspended solids effectively. Wastewater Flow Measurement Solutions Let me share insights from my experience in wastewater flow measurement applications. […]
What Makes Ultrasonic Flow Meters Ideal for Water Measurement?
During a recent water conservation project, a city was losing 30% of its water to leaks. After installing ultrasonic flow meters, they quickly identified and fixed the issues, saving millions of gallons annually. Ultrasonic flow meters are ideal for water measurement due to their non-invasive design, high accuracy (±0.5%), zero pressure drop, and maintenance-free operation. […]
What Are the Most Effective Ways to Troubleshoot Ultrasonic Flow Meters?
Unresolved flow meter issues can lead to significant process disruptions, inaccurate measurements, and costly production losses. Effective ultrasonic flow meter troubleshooting involves systematic checking of signal strength, zero readings, error messages, physical installation, and electrical connections. Ultrasonic Flow Meter Troubleshooting Basics Let me share my troubleshooting approach based on years of solving flow measurement problems […]
What’s the Best Way to Maintain Your Ultrasonic Flow Meter?
Last month, a petrochemical plant lost $50,000 in product due to inaccurate measurements from a poorly maintained ultrasonic flow meter. Don’t let this happen to your facility. Effective ultrasonic flow meter maintenance requires regular calibration, physical inspection, signal verification, and data analysis. A comprehensive maintenance program should include monthly checks and annual professional calibration. Ultrasonic […]
