Elliptical gear flowmeterBelonging to volumetric flow meters, flow measurement is achieved by dividing the fluid into known fixed volumes and counting them. Due to high measurement accuracy, it is particularly suitable for high viscosity media. Widely used in industries such as petroleum, chemical, food, and medicine. In the field of petroleum, it is commonly used for the storage, transportation, and measurement of petroleum products such as crude oil, diesel, and lubricants; It can be used for quantitative transportation and measurement of resins, coatings, and various additives in the chemical industry; In the field of food and medicineSuitable for the quantitative ratio and filling measurement of syrup, edible oil, medicinal liquids and other fluids.

Elliptical gear flowmeterAdvantages: sturdy and reliable structure, strong operational stability; Easy to install, no need for straight pipe sections at the front and back, and can also be installed near valves and bends; Flow measurement is not affected by the fluid flow state and has outstanding advantages in measuring high viscosity media.

Disadvantage: Not suitable for fluids containing solid particles, impurities can easily jam gears; If gas is mixed in the medium, it will cause measurement errors; Special material customization is required for highly corrosive media, otherwise gears are prone to wear and tear; Compared to other flow meters, its pressure loss is relatively large.

Selection and installation suggestions:

Selection criteria:

Medium type: Prioritize the use of corrosion-resistant materials for chemical media.

Viscosity range: For high viscosity media, it is necessary to confirm whether the range ratio of the flowmeter matches.

Installation environment: Consider temperature and pressure limits to avoid exceeding the instrument's tolerance range.

Installation points:

Cleaning the pipeline: Remove impurities before installation to prevent gear wear.

Direction requirement: When installing horizontally or vertically, ensure that the gear shaft is parallel to the ground.
