What type of flow meters are generally used for flow measurement in the UF ultrafiltration and RO reverse osmosis pipelines for water treatment?
Thread Content
As the title suggests, we have chosen a rotary flow meter from the American company GF
It’s okay to use a turbine for a lower cost; an vortex street meter can be used when the cost is higher
Is that how your factory makes the choice?
Our factory offers lower prices; no need for remote transmission – rotameters
We also have rotors on site; each ultrafiltration or reverse osmosis unit is equipped with a remote-transmission rotary flow meter, and these meters are used in conjunction with variable-frequency pumps for control. Isn’t your flow rate subject to any control?
With such clean media, the rotor performs well; for greater accuracy, a turbine can be used
If high precision is required, GF turbines are not recommended. If you work on water balance calculations, you’ll realize that when you follow the instructions carefully and pay attention to the K coefficient, you’ll start to question everything – where does the water go? It’s all just arbitrary values. UF uses electromagnetism; for RO systems with a conductivity of less than 20 us, vortex flow meters are used, while electromagnetism is employed for the rest. The method with the best stability is electromagnetism
Obviously a master at dealing with water treatment issues! I feel the same! ! ! That’s exactly what happens – when that correction factor cannot be calibrated!
Well, this is sort of a GF rotary wheel! Over time, the shaft inside the rotor can become \"eccentric,\" resulting in inaccurate readings or no readings at all.
