Integrated intelligent vortex flowmeter troubleshooting

In the production process, each of the intelligent vortex flowmeters has passed a strict quality inspection, and each flow real flow calibration. If the meter does not work properly during use, please follow these steps to check.

Vortex flowmeters are not only suitable for measuring a variety of low viscosity liquids, but also mainly for industrial measurement of gases and vapors. When measuring the volume flow of gas, vortex flowmeters are not affected by changes in fluid temperature, pressure, density, viscosity and other properties, so the measurement is very accurate and is the first choice for measuring air.

When the vortex flowmeter has no liquid flow in the pipeline, the receiver counts abnormally due to the noise generated by the pipeline vibration, and the sensitivity of the instrument should be adjusted.

Points of attention for vortex flowmeter installation:

Vortex flowmeters are versatile instruments commonly used in various industries for fluid flow measurement. Here are some applications of vortex flowmeters in different industries:

Intelligent vortex flowmeters can measure air. Vortex flowmeter is a new flowmeter for flow measurement based on Karman vortex principle. It has good medium adaptability and can directly measure the volume flow of various media (including air). When measuring air, the vortex flowmeter generates regular vortices through the triangular column vortex generator set in the fluid, and the frequency of these vortices is proportional to the average velocity of the measured medium, so that the air flow can be calculated.

Vortex flow meters are highly versatile instruments widely utilized in various industrial applications to measure the flow of liquids, gases, and steam. One prominent application of vortex flow meters is in the oil and gas industry, where they play a crucial role in measuring the flow rates of hydrocarbons through pipelines. These meters are particularly adept at handling the challenging conditions present in oil and gas operations, including high pressures and temperatures. By accurately measuring flow rates, vortex flow meters contribute to efficient process control and optimization, ensuring that production and transportation systems operate smoothly and cost-effectively.

Reliability is a hallmark of vortex flow meters, as they exhibit robust performance in harsh operating conditions. Their simple yet sturdy design, often featuring no moving parts, results in minimal maintenance requirements and increased longevity. This reliability is particularly crucial in industries where consistent and accurate flow measurement is essential for process control and optimization.

5 main points of vortex flow meter selection

Vortex flowmeter is widely used because of its wide range, small pressure loss, medium accuracy, linear output, no moving parts, high reliability, small maintenance, medium low price, relatively high performance and price characteristics.

When selecting the right air flow meter product, a number of factors need to be considered to ensure that the selected product can meet the actual needs and has good performance. Here is a detailed buying guide to help you choose the best air flowmeter:

1. There is fluid flow in the pipeline after power-on, but no signal output

The insertion vortex flowmeter is mainly used for the flow measurement of large-diameter gas, liquid and steam medium in industrial pipelines. In order to ensure the accuracy of its measurement, the following points should be noted when installing:

At present, many users often think that the purchase of a high-price flow meter can get accurate measurement results. The measurement of steam is different from other fluids such as water, air and other media, and there are many factors affecting its measurement in the actual measurement.

Vortex flowmeter common faults and solutions

The installation of the vortex flowmeter has different provisions, used to measure different measured media, different positions, then the installation method is not the same, the attention point is different, generally speaking, the vortex flowmeter has the following specified points:

Vortex flowmeter is mainly used to set up a vortex generating body (resistance fluid) in the fluid, from both sides of the vortex generating body alternately to produce regular vortices, to measure the flow of fluid, vortex flowmeter is mainly used for industrial pipeline fluid flow measurement, such as gas, liquid, steam and other media. It is characterized by small pressure loss, large range, high accuracy, and is almost not affected by fluid density, pressure, temperature, viscosity and other parameters when measuring volume flow under working conditions. In daily use, the output signal may be unstable, causing this phenomenon to be excluded from the following points:

Vortex steam flowmeter is one of the main flowmeter products, widely used in petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, heating and other departments. Test and measure the flow of liquid, gas and steam.

When choosing the right ammonia flow meter for you, several factors need to be considered to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results and the reliability of the equipment. Here’s a detailed buying guide:

Nominal diameter: DN15～DN300mm
Accuracy: liquid ±1.0%, gas (steam) ±1.5%, plug-in ±2.5%

Vortex flowmeter can be widely used in large, medium and small kinds of pipeline water supply and drainage, industrial circulation, sewage treatment, oil and chemical reagents and compressed air, saturated and superheated steam, natural gas and various media flow measurement and can be used as a flow transmitter in automatic control system, long service life. Points of attention for vortex flowmeter installation:

Vortex flowmeter is used by many industries for its simple structure, small maintenance, constant accuracy, easy operation and wide application range.

Vortex flowmeter is a velocity flowmeter, which measures the volume flow rate in the working state. If you choose the table according to the volume flow rate, the mass flow rate provided by the customer should be converted into the volume flow rate under the working state, and then determine the diameter of the selected instrument against the volume flow parameter.

Temperature and pressure compensation integrated vortex flowmeter performance advantages:

As a very special medium, steam will show special phenomena and problems in the process of vortex flowmeter measurement. The key problem is that the vapor density value deviates too much from the design value, which brings significant measurement errors to the measurement results. At present, the density measuring instrument with mature technology has not been successfully applied, which brings certain difficulties to the steam flow measurement.

Precession vortex flowmeter without mechanical moving parts, small size, corrosion resistance, stable performance; It can directly display the working pressure, temperature, flow rate and gas volume under standard state of the medium; With the advantages of wide measuring range and small measuring error, the precession vortex flowmeter has been widely used in the production measurement of oil and gas Wells and the sales measurement of natural gas.
