1. There is a problem with the quality flow meter, and the flow is not controlled. Please seek help.

2. What does zero calibration mean for the quality flow meter?

3. How to judge the quality of the quality flow meter?

To judge the quality of the quality flow meter, zero stability is an important indicator. Zero drift is a common problem encountered during the operation of Coriolis mass flow meters, where there is no flow in the pipeline but the mass flow meter still displays the flow value. There are many factors that can cause zero drift in quality flow meters. To solve the problem of zero drift in quality flow meters, one is to conduct regular zero point checks and adjustments, and the other is to request process cooperation to solve it. Xiamen Hongkong Instrument provides a detailed introduction to the handling of zero drift faults and zero calibration methods for mass flow meters in this article. The phenomenon and treatment of zero drift fault of mass flowmeter caused by process reasons [Fault Phenomenon 1] The zero point of mass flowmeter slowly moves, and the drift conditions are the same for each time. [Possible reasons] After the flow is stopped, small bubbles in the liquid accumulate at the upper part of the measuring tube, or suspended solids in the slurry separate and precipitate. [Processing method] Immediately zero after stopping the flow, which means that the fluid distribution state during zero adjustment is similar to that during flow. The signal output after zero drift occurs after zero adjustment is completed, and the small signal cut-off value is increased. [Fault phenomenon 2] The zero point of the mass flowmeter drifts significantly, and the drift varies greatly among eac

h time. The driving gain increases, and in severe cases, it can exceed 13V and become saturated. [Possible reason] Bubbles may remain in the measuring tube during retention, especially when the measuring tube is bent. [Handling method] ① Do not allow bubbles to enter; ② Occasional drift can be ignored and does not need to be zeroed every time; ③ Increase the static pressure of the pipeline to make the bubbles smaller and reach zero. [Fault phenomenon 3] The zero drift of the mass flowmeter is large, and in many cases, it cannot be zeroed. [Possible cause] Sediments adhering to the inner wall of the measuring tube in the fluid. [Treatment method] Clean or hot melt to remove it. [Fault phenomenon 4] Due to the drift of fluid temperature, the smaller the temperature value of a Coriolis mass flowmeter with the same diameter, the greater the zero drift. [Possible cause] Changes in liquid temperature. [Processing method] ① Adjust the temperature to zero during actual use measurement; ② Zero drift caused by temperature changes during flow stoppage shall not be treated; ③ Adjust to zero when the temperature difference is 1 ℃. [Symptom 5] The zero point of the mass flow meter is unstable, but the movement is small. [Possible cause] There is vibration in the pipeline. [Handling method] In many cases, measurement errors do not occur and can be ignored. [Fault phenomenon 6] Stress changes are caused by temperature fluctuations, and stress changes are caused by mechanical reasons before and after the mass flow meter sensor. [Possible cause] Stress changes experienced by the flow sensor. [Handling method] ① Replace any flexible connecting pipe at the entrance and exit; ② If rubber hoses are installed at the entrance and exit, two or m
