What are the different connection types for flow meters?

Thread Content

I. Flange connection: This is a relatively traditional method of connection. The flow meter has flanges at both ends that can be used for connection; when connecting it to pipes, it is sufficient to secure the flanges at both ends to those on the pipes using bolts. This type of connection allows for one-way installation. Sensors with this type of connection are relatively small in size and are suitable only for use in small pipes. II. Threaded connection: Some flow meters with small diameters use a threaded connection, and this type of connection is generally employed in the medical and food industries. Furthermore, this type of connection also has certain applications in the oil and exploration industries. III. Clamping connection: This is a more advanced type of connection; flow meters that do not have flanges of their own use this connection method, where they can be clamped between the two flanges of the pipeline using bolts. It is a relatively simple way of connecting. It is necessary for everyone to know the installation method of electromagnetic flowmeters, so that no mistakes will occur during clamping connections. IV. Sanitary connection: This type of connection is used for some small-diameter pipes these days; it is often also referred to as a clamp-type connection. With this connection, flow meters can be installed and removed quickly, and their daily cleaning and maintenance are also very convenient. Liquids that uniformly contain a suspension of both liquid and solid phases, such as sludge, pulp, paper pulp, etc.
