Turbine flow meters can be used to measure not only liquid flow but also gas flow.


Following some of the key advantages:

  1. High Accuracy and Repeatability: Turbine flow meters can provide very accurate and repeatable measurements, especially when used with clean, non-corrosive, and non-erosive liquids or gases.

  2. Wide Flow Range: They can be designed to measure a wide range of flow rates, from very small to quite large, making them versatile for different industrial needs.

  3. Quick Response Time: Due to the mechanical nature of the turbine,it can respond quickly to changes in flow, which is beneficial for processes that require rapid adjustments.

  4. Compact Design: Turbine flow meters generally have a compact design, allowing them to fit into tight spaces .

  5. Ease of Installation and Maintenance: Turbine flow meters are relatively simple to install and maintain.

  6. Suitable for Clean Fluids: They work best with clean, non-abrasive, and non-coating fluids, as the presence of particulates or contaminants could interfere with the turbine's operation and affect accuracy.

  7. Linear Output:output signal (pulses) from a turbine flow meter is linearly proportional to the volumetric flow , which simplifies the process of converting the signal to a usable flow measurement.

Difference Between Ultrasonic and Electromagnetic Flow Meters

Jan. 21, 2025

The biggest difference between ultrasonic and electromagnetic flow meters is that ultrasonic flow meters do not require a conductive liquid to work. They also measure gases but fare less well with liquids that contain many solids or bubbles. Ultrasonic meters are able to withstand high temperatures and high pressure.
