The thermal gas mass flow meter is not suitable for which conditions

Thermal gas mass flowmeter is a high-end gas measuring instrument, with many advantages, wide range ratio, plug-in connection mode can be selected when large diameter, convenient for subsequent disassembly and maintenance, various power supply modes, 24V or 220V can be used, ground pipe local display, high altitude pipe separate display, etc. However, thermal gas mass flowmeters are not suitable for all occasions.

1. Medium temperature. The thermal gas mass flowmeter is designed based on the principle of thermal diffusion. The probe of the flowmeter determines the heating temperature of the probe according to the temperature of the measured medium. Generally, the heating temperature of the probe is 50 degrees higher than that of the medium. It can be seen that the temperature of the measured medium is relatively constant when the flowmeter is normally measured, and the heating current is proportional to the flow rate of the medium at this time.

2. Medium composition. Hot gas mass flowmeter can measure almost all single gas medium (except acetylene), but in the actual measurement there are a lot of mixed gases need to be measured, at this time the use of hot gas mass flow timing, it is very necessary for the mixed gas. All gas flow meters use air as the measured medium during calibration, and the standard conversion coefficient can be found when a single medium is used. However, the conversion coefficient of the mixed gas needs to be converted according to the percentage of the measured medium composition in the field time, but when the medium composition changes during measurement, the measurement error of the flowmeter will be increased.

3. Stress. Thermal gas mass flowmeters are not recommended for use under high pressure conditions. The important point of thermal measurement is the heat carried by the medium, when the field pressure is too high, the heat carried by the medium per unit volume is very large, under the double influence of the compression system and the reaction rate, the measured value of the flowmeter will be smaller than the actual use, so it is recommended that the thermal gas mass flowmeter be used within 4.0Mpa.

4. High temperatures. Measuring the high temperature medium means that the temperature resistance of the sensor is higher, and the power consumption of the whole machine circuit increases when measuring the high temperature medium. At this stage, the hot gas mass flowmeter can withstand high temperature to 400 degrees, which can meet the vast majority of on-site requirements.
