How to choose a flow meter?
Thread Content
May I ask if there is metering at the terminal station of the long-distance pipeline? The oil products in question are M180 and M100, with an annual transport volume ranging from 1.5 million tons to 3 million tons. Which type of flow meter should be chosen? What other parameters are needed if a selection isn’t possible? Is the calculation of the number of measurement paths also done by using a flow meter?
Ultrasonic flowmeters are now commonly used for measuring oil flow rates; they are quite accurate, with a precision of around 0.5% of the reading. You will also need to provide information regarding temperature and pressure, as well as the pipe size, so that a suitable flowmeter can be selected. As for determining the most appropriate number of channels, this generally depends on the actual conditions on site and economic factors, and it is necessary for the user to discuss this in detail with the manufacturer.

First, it’s necessary to determine the type of flow meter. What was said upstairs is correct – ultrasonic flow meters are generally the best choice. After that, it’s sufficient to contact the manufacturer directly for consultation
