In this post I want to share with you application and selection and flow measurement. In my career as process engineer, this is a very important topic since we always need to consider why we select this type of flow meter and not the other one.
Key Process in Selection of Flow Measurement
At least there are two key processes in selection of flow measurements. First, select meters that meet measurement requirements and are available in the needed size and materials. Then, evaluate cost, delivery, performance, and other factors to choose the best option.
Next, focus on key performance requirements like maximum allowable error (as a percentage of reading or full scale) and metering range. Use these limits to determine the needed rangeability—the ratio between maximum and minimum flow within acceptable error—and select appropriate flow sensor types.
