What is Differential Pressure Flow Meter?
A differential pressure flow meter works on the principle of partially obstructing the flow in the pipe and measures the flow rate based on DP.
Flow Measurement: Learn about Flow Sensors like Orifice, Venturi, Annubar, Pitot, Magnetic, Turbine, Ultrasonic, Coriolis flow meters, etc.
A differential pressure flow meter works on the principle of partially obstructing the flow in the pipe and measures the flow rate based on DP.
Piston flow meters operate by a piston moving within a chamber of known volume. Piston meters are used for low volume flow measurements.
Rotary Abutment Flow Meters are another form of positive displacement flow meter. They have a wide viscosity range and maintains accuracy too.
Turbine flow meters use the rotation of a rotor within a flow tube to measure the flow of liquid. These are ideally suited for low viscosity liquids.
Oval Gear Flow Meters are a type of positive displacement meter. As liquid flows through the meter, a pair of oval shaped gears are forced to rotate.
In Differential Pressure Meters, obstructing flow is used to create a pressure drop. The flow rate is calculated using Bernoulli’s principle.
In Nutating disc flow meters, When fluid enters the chamber, it causes the disc to rotate and this is used to measure flow rate.
Oscillating piston flow meters use a precision machined chamber containing a cylindrical piston that oscillates as liquid flows.
Positive Displacement Flow meters are volumetric flow measurement instruments that measure flow by passing a precise volume of fluid.
Swirl flow meters combine the advantages of turbine and vortex flow meter technologies. They have a high turndown ratio and high accuracy.
