Flow meters are important and widely used instrument products in industrial production. Chengfeng Flow Meter, a brand with 30 years of experience, has been specializing in professional selection and pricing for 30 years. Based on the experience of production practice over the past 30 years, we strive to develop various flow measurement products and customize various non-standard flow meter products according to different customer needs and equipment requirements. The corrosiveness of the medium is also a concern for us. So, what are the hazards of corrosive media?
1. The key components of flow meters have changed their geometric dimensions due to long-term corrosion by corrosive media. Causing a decrease in instrument accuracy.
2. Corrosive media corrode the key components of flow meters, causing a reduction in width and size, resulting in damage. The inner wall of the metal tube is often corroded by the medium, causing potholes. For example, the electrode of an electromagnetic flow meter leaks due to corrosion, and the vortex generator in a vortex flowmeter is corroded by the fluid, causing the outer ring of the excitation line to burn out, resulting in the loss of function of the flow meter.
3. Corrosion can have a significant impact on the lifespan of instruments. For example, selecting non corrosion resistant materials for key measuring components can cause some instruments to lose their function prematurely, and after several years of use, the process connections will be worn out.
4. Corrosive media leakage, therefore, in order to ensure the accuracy of its measurement, generally anti-corrosion or non anti-corrosion materials are selected for process connections such as flanges.
5. In some special occasions, corrosive media can reduce the safety protection capability of instruments and meters, and even cause serious safety accidents. The cost of using all anti-corrosion materials is too high. As a professional flowmeter manufacturer, Chengfeng Instrument will provide you with professional selection and quotation, and choose cost-effective products for you. Secondly, regular maintenance is necessary and should not be taken lightly to avoid accidents.
