Tips for selecting a corrosion-resistant hydrogen fluoride flow meter
Hydrogen fluoride flowmeter is an instrument used to measure the flow of highly corrosive liquids such as hydrogen fluoride. Because hydrogen fluoride is highly corrosive, it is necessary to choose a flow meter with corrosion resistance to accurately measure its flow rate.
There are many types of hydrogen fluoride flowmeters, such as electromagnetic flowmeters, gear flowmeters, ultrasonic flowmeters and so on. These flowmeters need to consider factors such as the corrosiveness of the medium, temperature, pressure and measurement accuracy when selecting them.
When choosing a hydrogen fluoride flow meter, the following key factors should be considered:
1. Corrosion resistance:
Because hydrogen fluoride is highly corrosive, and different concentrations of hydrogen fluoride corrosivity is different, resulting in the selection of hydrogen fluoride flow timing, will choose different types of flowmeters according to the concentration of hydrogen fluoride, the flowmeter material must be able to withstand the corrosion of hydrogen fluoride.
Concentrated hydrofluoric acid has very weak corrosion performance, while dilute hydrofluoric acid has a strong corrosion, and the corrosion is intensified with the reduction of the concentration of hydrofluoric acid. The reason is that when the concentration is reduced, the conductivity is increased, the migration and diffusion of ions are easy to carry out, and the corrosion current is also large, so when it is reduced to a certain concentration, the corrosion is strong, but then the concentration is reduced, the corrosion rate will be reduced.
Therefore: for low concentration of hydrogen fluoride, you can choose a general corrosion resistant flowmeter, such as stainless steel, PTFE and other materials made of electromagnetic or gear flowmeter; For high-concentration hydrogen fluoride, it is necessary to choose a more corrosion-resistant flowmeter, such as a flowmeter made of titanium or a flowmeter with a special anticorrosive coating; The type of flowmeter selected for close to pure hydrogen fluoride is the same as that for low concentration hydrogen fluoride.
2. Measurement accuracy:
The measuring accuracy of the flowmeter is also an important factor to consider. When selecting the flow meter, the model with high measurement accuracy should be selected according to the actual demand. For example, some high-precision flowmeters require specific fluid conditions, such as low or high temperature, low or high pressure. Therefore, in the selection of hydrogen fluoride flow timing, it is necessary to make comprehensive consideration according to the actual demand.
3. Temperature and pressure range:
Hydrogen fluoride flowmeters need to be able to withstand a certain range of temperatures and pressures. When selecting the flow meter, whether the temperature and pressure range meet the actual demand should be considered.
4. Installation and maintenance:
Installation and maintenance of hydrogen fluoride flowmeters are also factors to consider. When choosing a flow meter, consider whether it is easy to install and whether special maintenance and maintenance are required. In the installation flow timing, it is necessary to follow the flow meter manufacturer's guidelines to ensure that the flow meter is correctly installed. At the same time, during use, regular maintenance and maintenance are required to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the flow meter.
