The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) conducts ultrasonic meter calibrations to ensure the accuracy and reliability of ultrasonic flow meters.
What is an Ultrasonic Flow Meter?
An ultrasonic flow meter is a volumetric flow meter that uses ultrasound technology to measure a fluid’s velocity. Ultrasonic flow meters attach to the pipe’s exterior, allowing the device to measure the velocity of corrosive liquids without incurring damage. Several industries rely on ultrasonic flow meters, including the following:
- Oil and gas
- Chemical processing
- HVAC
- Wastewater
Why is it Important to Calibrate Ultrasonic Flow Meters?
Ultrasonic flow meters ensure that pipes maintain a precise flow rate throughout operation. Although manufacturers calibrate their flow meters in-house following production, the meter’s accuracy will deteriorate over time with repeated use. Several other factors can contribute to a flow meter’s inaccuracy, including the following:
- Fluid contaminants such as chemicals, debris, and sediment
- Mechanical wear to gears, bearings, and rotating parts
- Improper installation
- Harsh environmental conditions
The Benefits of Ultrasonic Meter Calibration
Ultrasonic meter calibrations help flow meter manufacturers and operators do the following:
- Ensure the flow meter’s reliability and accuracy
- Comply with industry regulations and standards
- Avoid the costs associated with inaccurate measurements
