Natural gas flowmeter selection requirements description

The importance of natural gas for economic development and production and life is self-evident. It is also important to focus on the selection of flow meters for measuring natural gas. So, how can we choose a suitable flow meter? This should be the first time for everyone. The problem that you will face when choosing a flow meter. The following are the key points for the selection of natural gas flow meters.

1, instrument performance

Natural gas flowmeter is a kind of high-demand detection instrument, so it is stricter in performance requirements. Pay attention to these points when making selection: high precision, wide range, low pressure loss, low flow rate of upper and lower limits. Good signal output characteristics, fast response time and no repeatability.

2, fluid characteristics

Regarding the selection of natural gas flowmeters, fluid pressure, temperature, density, viscosity, lubricity, chemical properties, specific heat capacity, electrical conductivity, sound velocity, mixed phase flow, and pulsating flow must be fully considered, in addition to ensuring wear, corrosion, and gas compression coefficient. If the isentropic index is qualified, the natural gas flowmeter can not be fouled, and the dirt should be cleaned up in time.

3. Environmental conditions

When selecting a natural gas flowmeter, it is necessary to consider the ambient temperature and humidity, so that it can be properly selected, and it is not subject to electromagnetic interference, and the safety performance is good, so as to ensure reliable measurement results.

4. Economic factors

Buying options often need to consider practicality and economy. Therefore, when selecting natural gas flowmeters, you need to consider the purchase cost, installation fee, maintenance fee, calibration fee, transportation fee, cost, accessory cost, etc. Bring good benefits.

After fully considering these aspects, you can choose a suitable natural gas flow meter. In addition, the flowmeter is a highly sophisticated instrument that not only needs to strictly comply with its requirements during manufacturing and use, but must also be used in later maintenance. Pay special attention to not let the flowmeter retire early. If you have other needs or problems with the flowmeter, you can contact Shanghai Anzhen Flowmeter Factory and we will be happy to help you.
