Adjustable flow meter
Thread Content
Is it correct to install the pressure tap tube of the adjustable flowmeter in this orientation?
Is this used to measure gas flow? This is a proper way to measure flow rate using differential pressure. What is a regulating flow meter?
It depends on whether it is a type for installation or for measuring differential pressure; for installation, it is necessary to consider whether the medium being measured is a liquid or a gas
Adjustable flow meter? Seen it :)
A throttling element is a flow meter that consists of a steel plate with many circular holes; it is of the adjustable type, and its principle also relies on measuring flow rate through differential pressure
Generally, those are called balanced flow meters
As far as I know, the adjustable orifice plate is Emerson Rosemount’s four-orifice plate; it is, like the balanced flow meter, a multi-orifice plate. The difference is that the balance flow meter in the exact center has holes, while the adjustable version does not have any holes in the middle. Four holes in four directions, like a grid.

It is guessed that the medium being measured is steam. Behind his second valve for steam, there’s something like a condensation tee. It is necessary to ensure that the lower half of the tee is vertical downward; the inclination of the tee facilitates the return of excess condensate to the main pipeline. In other words, the transmitter gauge should be at the bottom. As shown in the figure below. The transmitter may be inverted. However, the inversion problem with actually integrated instrument transmitters is not significant.
This is indeed not a regulating flow meter; it seems to be of the wedge or nozzle type. The installation depends on the type of bonding medium; however, what you’re installing now doesn’t quite fit properly
In short, it depends on the measuring medium; there is a detailed description of the source component
