There are many types of flow meters, and different types of flow meters measure different media and have different requirements. Today, let's learn about the medium requirements for quick connect flow meters together.

　　Quick connect flowmeter manufacturerQuick connect flow meters are generally only suitable for low viscosity single-phase fluids. Through practical application and verification of flow meters, their instrument coefficients hardly change with changes in flow rate when measuring low viscosity media. When the viscosity of the measured medium increases, the linearity of the quick connect flow meter becomes poor, and the instrument coefficients also change greatly with changes in flow rate, making it difficult to achieve the expected measurement accuracy. When the measured medium is a gas-liquid two-phase flow, the flow velocity of the medium will become very unstable, resulting in significant measurement errors.

At present, the bearings of most quick connect flow meters are spherical bearings, so there is a high requirement for the cleanliness of the measured medium. If the medium contains particulate impurities, it will cause rapid wear of the bearing, and if there are fiber impurities, they will wrap around the blades, affecting the normal rotation of the turbine. In practical applications, an effective filter should be installed upstream of the quick connect flow meter.

When using a quick connect flowmeter, we need to pay attention to the medium measured by the flowmeter, which has strict requirements for the measured medium. Therefore, we must be careful when choosing.
