Selection of mass flow sensor sensor installation methods - focus on microfluidic control technology

The installation method of the sensor is mainly determined according to the phase of the fluid and its process conditions, and there are three installation methods.
1) If the fluid to be tested is a liquid, the sensor is generally installed with the outer casing facing downward to prevent air from accumulating in the vibrating tube of the sensor, so as to achieve accurate measurement of mass flow.
2) If the fluid to be measured is a gas, the sensor is generally mounted with the casing facing upward to prevent the condensate from accumulating in the sensor vibrating tube.
3) If the fluid to be tested is a mixed slurry of liquid and solid, install the sensor on the vertical official road to prevent the particles from accumulating in the sensor Coriolis force measuring tube. In addition, if the process pipeline needs to be cleaned with gas and steam, this installation method can also be easily cleaned, but this installation method is more difficult to fix than the first two, and the pressure loss is larger.
