Water Flow Meter Types
Water flow meter is an instrument used to measure water flow. There are many types of water flow meters. According to the different measurement principles and structural characteristics, they can be divided into the following types:
Mechanical water flow meter:
Principle: Use the kinetic energy or pressure difference of the fluid to generate torque, drive the mechanical component to rotate or swing, and transmit it to the pointer or counter through the connecting rod to achieve flow measurement.
Types: Including turbine flowmeter, rotor flowmeter, piston flowmeter, float flowmeter, etc.
Principle: Based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, the liquid fluid flowing through the pipeline generates an electromotive force under the action of the magnetic field, and the electrode measures the electromotive force to calculate the flow.
Features: good linearity, high precision, strong reliability, widely used in water treatment, chemical industry, metallurgy and other industries.
Composition: It consists of two parts: sensor and converter.

Alias: fire water flowmeter, turbine flowmeter.
Features: high precision, good repeatability, compact and lightweight structure, according to the different measuring media, it can be divided into two measuring instruments: gas and liquid.
Application: Widely used in the measurement of oil, natural gas, coal gas and other media.
Application: Used to measure industrial pipeline media fluids such as gas, steam and liquid.
Features: Strong anti-interference performance, good stability and accuracy, large range, advanced circuit, small resistance loss, strong and durable.
Each of these water flow meter types has its own characteristics and application fields. The selection needs to be determined according to the actual measurement needs and environmental conditions.
