Flow meters are designed to measure the flow rate or quantity of gas or liquid moving through a pipe. They are commonly used in different industries including chemical, food and beverage, power, mining, marine, construction, and many others. With a wide range of applications, they come in various types and functions to accommodate specific requirements of each industry.

Flow meters are categorized by the way they measure flow rate, and the principles and data they utilize to calculate velocity. Optical flow meters need light to determine fluid flow rate while ultrasonic flow meters require sonic reflectors, such as particles or air bubbles, to provide accurate measurements. Pressure-based meters measure differential pressure using Bernoulli’s principle while magnetic flow meters apply Faraday’s Law of electromagnetic induction to compute flow velocity. Other types of flow meters include positive displacement, thermal, Coriolis, turbine, vortex, open channel, variable area, and more.

A flow meter is composed of sensors for transmitting and receiving data and a control panel with a display and keyboard to enable simple interface. To ensure accuracy and precision, correct installation with adequate upstream straight run and downstream straight run is a must. It is also important to know the fluid to be measured and its flow characteristics like pressure, temperature, viscosity, specific gravity, electrical conductivity, and many others. Knowing the specifications  of each application is essential in choosing the best flow meter to do the job.
