When selecting a flowmeter, the first question is usually: “What are we measuring?” But that is only the starting point.
For gas and steam applications, you also need to consider:
- What is the pressure?
- What is the temperature?
- What is the flow range?
- Is the gas dry or wet?
- What is the pipe size?
- Do you need volumetric or mass flow?
Different flow technologies are suited to different process conditions. Bass Instruments offers a range of technologies for industrial flow measurement, including vortex, thermal mass and differential pressure solutions.
The goal is not simply to select a flowmeter. The goal is to select the right measurement technology for the application.
