Does the viscosity of the measured medium affect the measurement of the turbine flowmeter?

Turbine flowmeter is a kind of speed instrument, the viscosity of medium has influence on the measurement accuracy of turbine flowmeter

 

It is used to measure the volume instantaneous flow and total volume of low-viscosity liquids in closed pipelines. Although the turbine flowmeter has good stability, the turbine flowmeter will be affected by the viscosity of the medium during use.

The influence of the viscosity of the medium on the measurement accuracy of the turbine flowmeter during use is embodied in the following aspects:

1. As the viscosity of the medium increases, the starting displacement of the turbine flowmeter will decrease

2. As the viscosity of the medium increases, the accuracy of the precision will also be affected.

 

The maintenance of the sensor part of the turbine flowmeter should pay attention to the following points:

1. When using, the measured medium should be kept clean and free of impurities such as fibers and particles.

2. The maintenance period of the turbine flow sensor is generally half a year.

3. When the turbine flow sensor is not in use, the internal medium should be cleaned.
