A Global Market of Ultrasonic Flow meter

Image
The global ultrasonic flow meter demand was around US$ 1.1 Billion in 2017! And projected to be US$ 1.8 Billion in 2018! Bulk type ultrasonic flow meter Insertion type Ultrasonic Flow Meter  An ultrasonic flow meter is a measuring device that is used to gauge the volume of a fluid or gas that is moving through a pipeline. The device measures the fluid velocity which further estimates the motion of a gas or any liquid flowing. The velocity of the material flowing is measured with the help of ultrasonic transducers. Beside with fluids, one can also measure the velocity of molten sulphur, chemicals, cryogenic liquids, and even gases and steam. This instrument generally works on three separate principles i.e transition time difference, doppler effect, and Open Channel Flow Measurement Principle. Ultrasonic flow meters are largely used in industries like wastewater, chemical, food and beverages, mining, metals, pharmaceuticals, power generation, paper, and pulp...

What are Flow Meters? And Why should you care?

E very industry depends on what material they are consuming most and how to bring the cost bear minimum to make product market competition and at the same time delivering the quality that matches industry standards is a back-breaking for today’s highly competitive not local but global markets is do or die strategy for any OEM. To bring down this burgeoning cost to a   bare minimum and make product cost effective for market and value for money to customers, they need to measure the utilities that they are using, in a cost-effective way to increase efficiencies and bring down cost. A Brief History of Flow Meters in India Till economic liberalization, only multinational companies and their subsidiaries were manufacturing the flow meters and they are very costly to domestic companies. Indigenously developed the flow meters taking notice the needs of Indian companies. What is Electromagnetic flow meter? Electromagnetic flow meter A magnetic flow meter is technicall...

What Is An O-Ring? A Brief History and Applications of O-Rings

Image
What is an O-Ring? Rubber O Ring An O-ring is a donut, or torus-shaped seal typically used to inhibit the passing of air or liquid. In other words, O-rings are utilized to restrain fluid or air Inside or Outside of an enclosed area. For example, Underwater camera used in Ocean filmography   Ocean Filmography need to resist water out of electrical or sensitive parts and it has done with O-rings! Other everyday uses are keeping our LPG cylinder leak-proof, and to make our lives more secure! They are also used as a drive belt, decorative objects on furniture, cups and automotive parts and used as body jewellery like hand bands. How Does an O-ring Seal Anyway? Before we go over types of materials, hardness, sizes, and tolerances of O-rings let address the How O ring Seals question i.e. how the O-ring really seals. Essentially, an O-ring is managed to obstruct a pathway that liquid...

What is Flow? Every material state i.e. liquid, gas, steam move steadily and continuously in a current or stream and typically this large numbers of movement from one place to another place is characterized as the flow . Tap Water  Where Flow Meters are used? This can be observed in day to day life while filling petrol in your car or bike you see the changing numbers on digital flow meter of petrol station! Similarly, your daily use  of water is measured by a Water Flow Meter , and these meters are used in sugar plants to measure sugarcane juice! And when it comes to measuring water before it started to flow through tap it flows through Flow meters of Water Resource Departments . Types And Applications  Electromagnetic Flow Meter - A Commonly used flow meter, Government Water Distribution Schemes, Wastewater Treatment  Plants Ultrasonic Flow Meter - wastewater applications or any dirty liquid  Gas Flow Meter - Factories Steam Flow M...
