I would like to ask the experienced colleagues how to choose an air flow meter? Main issue: One of our products requires compressed air, with a pressure range of 0.3–0.6 MPa and an air consumption range of 50–450 L/min. I need to choose a flow metering device that can accurately measure gas consumption. I’m not familiar with such products; it seems there are many different types of flow meters available online, and I’m not sure how to pick the right one. I would appreciate it if the seniors could give me some guidance. Thank you so much! !
The rotor, why such precision with the air?
Integrated orifice plate flowmeters (with pressure compensation), vortex flowmeters (with pressure compensation), and thermal mass flowmeters can all be considered.
It’s better to be accurate, as many such products need to be installed in engineering projects, and it’s important to have an exact figure for the total gas consumption – after all, this affects the selection of air compressors.
Overall, given my situation, which one do you think is better? Could you recommend some manufacturers? Thank you
Orifice plates are energy-intensive where they are used, and thermal types are expensive; therefore, vortex flow meters have to be considered.
Vortex or thermal type – the choice depends on the specific pipe diameter and measurement range
For pressure-compensated integrated vortex flowmeters, specific details such as the pipe diameter are required.
Spin-in vortex, turbine vortex street, rotor, thermal type. . .
1. OP, first clarify what the diameter is. 2. OP, accuracy – to what extent is it needed? Specific values are required. 3. I don’t know anything at all; what kind of recommendation are you giving me? {:2_32:} Even the monkeys laugh at you—you’re not steady. .
