strömmeter

A strömmeter, also known as a stream meter or flow meter, is a device used to measure the flow rate of liquids or gases in a pipe or conduit. It is commonly employed in various industries, including water treatment, oil and gas, and HVAC systems, to monitor and control the flow of fluids. Strömmeters operate on different principles, such as differential pressure, electromagnetic, ultrasonic, or turbine flow measurement, depending on the specific application and the type of fluid being measured.

Differential pressure strömmeters use the pressure difference created by the flow of fluid to calculate the flow rate. Electromagnetic strömmeters measure the velocity of a conductive fluid passing through a magnetic field, while ultrasonic strömmeters use sound waves to determine the flow rate. Turbine strömmeters, on the other hand, employ a spinning rotor whose speed is proportional to the flow rate.

Strömmeters are designed to be accurate, reliable, and durable, with features such as corrosion resistance, temperature compensation, and remote monitoring capabilities. They are typically installed inline with the fluid flow, and their measurements can be used for billing, process control, and safety purposes. Regular calibration and maintenance are essential to ensure the accuracy and longevity of strömmeters.
