It can realize liquid crystal indication, accumulation, and remote transmission (4-20Ma). Pulse output, upper and lower limit alarm output and other functions. This type of intelligent signal transmitter has high precision and reliability.

High Pressure Rotameter

The working principle of High Pressure Rotameter:

The high-pressure metal tube rotameter is the force that the upper and lower ends of the float generate differential pressure to form a rising force when the measured medium passes through the conical measuring tube from bottom to top.

When the lifting force on the float is greater than the weight of the float immersed in the fluid, the float will rise. The area of ​​the annulus will increase accordingly. The fluid velocity at the annulus will drop immediately. The differential pressure at the upper and lower ends of the float will decrease. The float is stabilized at a certain height until the lift force is equal to the weight of the float immersed in the fluid.

The height of the float position corresponds to the flow rate of the measured medium.

The float has a built-in magnet. When the float moves up and down with the medium, the magnetic field changes with the movement of the float.

a. For the local type, the rotating magnet in the local indicator is coupled with the magnetic steel in the float to rotate. At the same time, the pointer is driven to indicate the flow rate at this time through the dial.

b. For the intelligent type, the change of the magnetic field is converted into an electrical signal by a solid-state magnetic sensor in the intelligent indicator. After A/D conversion, microprocessor. D/A output, LCD liquid crystal display, to display the flow rate size and cumulative flow.

What Is Difference Between Rotameter and Flow Meter?

A rotameter is a device that measures the flow rate of liquid or gas in a closed system. It consists of a float that moves up and down in a tube, based on the fluid’s flow rate. The faster the fluid flows, the higher the float rises.

A flowmeter is a device that measures the volume of liquid or gas that flows through it. There are many different types of flowmeters, each designed to measure different types of fluids. For example, positive displacement flowmeters measure the volume of fluid that passes through them, while rotameters measure the rate of flow.

Are high pressure flow meters the same as regular flow meters? Can high pressure flow meters be replaced by ordinary flow meters?
Of course not.

You need to measure the flow of fluids under high pressure, but you’re not sure which type of flow meter is best for your application.

Choosing the right flow meter can be difficult, because there are so many different types available on the market. How do you know which one is right for your specific application?

Sino-Inst offers a wide range of high pressure flow meters that are specifically designed to operate in demanding applications. Our high pressure flowmeters are made from stainless steel construction and are ideal when measuring the flow of fluids under high pressures.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

Yes, rotameters are affected by changes in pressure. When the pressure decreases, the rotameter will read a lower flow rate. Similarly, when the pressure increases, the rotameter will read a higher flow rate. This is because the rotameter measures the fluid’s velocity, and changes in pressure will affect the fluid’s velocity. Therefore, it is important to keep the rotameter’s pressure at a constant level if you want to accurately measure the flow rate.

The flow detection element of the rotameter is composed of a vertical tapered tube that expands from bottom to top and a float group that moves up and down along the axis of the tapered tube. Below, I will give you a specific introduction to the classification of rotameters.

Glass rotameter:

Glass rotameters are mainly used in various departments such as the chemical industry, petroleum, light industry, medicine, fertilizer, chemical fiber, food, dyes, environmental protection, and scientific research. Used to measure the flow of single-phase non-pulsating (liquid or gas) fluids. The anti-corrosion glass rotor flowmeter is mainly used for the detection of corrosive liquid and gas medium flow. Such as strong acid, strong acid, oxidant, strong oxidizing acid, organic solvent, and other corrosive gas or liquid medium flow detection.

Plastic tube rotameter:

The main parts such as the liquid plastic tube rotameter cone tube are made of AS, ABS plastic. Has relatively good corrosion resistance. The product also has the characteristics of reasonable structure, small size, lightweight, and the tapered tube is not easily broken. The plastic tube rotor flowmeter can be widely used in chemical, environmental protection, food, and other industrial sectors.

Plexiglass rotameter:

Plexiglass rotameter is divided into panel type plexiglass rotameter and pipeline type plexiglass rotameter.

Plexiglass rotameter also has the characteristics of high transparency, intuitive reading, not easy to break, lightweight, long life, and convenient installation and connection. However, the tapered glass tube of plexiglass cannot be used for organic solvents (such as trichloroethylene, dichloroethane).

Metal tube rotameter:

Metal tube rotameter is divided into on-site pointer indication type and remote transmission type.

Metal float flowmeter is a kind of flow measuring instrument commonly used in industrial automation process control. It has the characteristics of small pressure loss, large detection range (range ratio 10:1), and convenient use. It can be used to measure the flow of liquid, gas, and steam. It is especially suitable for medium flow measurement with low flow velocity and small flow.
