Powder flow meter
Thread Content
How about using an electromagnetic flowmeter to test powder flow meters? What are some recommendations?
Is it better to use weighing for powders?
Are you a liquid slurry? Electromagnetic flowmeters are used to measure electrolyte liquids, so this case should be suitable for an electromagnetic flowmeter. Others include metal tube float flowmeters and glass tube float flowmeters.
Not that great, right? Powdered material, solid?
Air delivery of pure powder? So high-end? In that case, a Coriolis mass flow meter could still be tried; everything else is nonsense. If it’s a slurry, it’s much simpler; electromagnetic methods are often used, so let’s check the conductivity first.
It’s best to describe the medium in more specific terms. For powder transportation, in the case of dry powders, air conveying is generally used. For wet powders, such as slurries, certain types of liquid flow meters can be used, such as electromagnetic ones (which require conductivity), wedge-type meters, and ultrasonic meters.
