Basic requirements for V-cone flowmeter installation site

You should have a certain understanding of the installation method of the V-cone flowmeter. I believe that you will have a comprehensive understanding of the connection method of the V-cone flowmeter. However, during the installation of the V-cone flowmeter, have you ever thought about the requirements of the V-cone flowmeter for the installation site? Let's follow the experts of China Sensor Trading Network to learn some relevant knowledge.

The V-cone flowmeter has a conical cutoff piece suspended in the center of the pipeline. The conical piece hinders the flow of the medium and reshapes the flow velocity curve. The measured media include water, steam, air, natural gas, nitrogen, coke oven gas and organic gas.

Usually the protection level of the V-cone flowmeter sensor housing is IP65, and the installation site requirements are:

1. Choose a place with low vibration, especially for integrated instruments;

2. When measuring mixed phase fluids, choose a location that will not cause phase separation; when measuring two-component liquids, avoid installing it downstream where the mixture is not yet uniform; when measuring chemical reaction pipelines, install it downstream of the reaction section where the reaction is fully completed;

3. Avoid negative pressure in the measuring tube as much as possible;

4. The relative humidity of the environment is within the range of 10% to 90%;

5. Avoid direct sunlight as much as possible;

6. Avoid rain and will not be submerged in water.

7. Avoid large motors, large transformers , etc. nearby to avoid electromagnetic interference;

8. A place where it is easy to achieve separate grounding of the sensor;

9. Avoid high concentration of corrosive gas in the surrounding environment as much as possible;

10. The ambient temperature is within the range of -25/-10～50/60℃. The temperature of the integrated structure is also subject to the electronic components, so the range is narrower.

11. If the protection level of the V-cone flowmeter is IP67 or IP68, the above requirements 8 and 10 are not required.

The basic requirements of the V-cone flowmeter for the installation site are mainly reflected in these aspects. I believe that as everyone masters the installation skills of the V-cone flowmeter , they will be able to install the V-cone flowmeter correctly.
