Hello everyone, I am a manufacturer of instruments and meters, and I have been doing it in Tianjin for more than 10 years. The following is to share some knowledge of electromagnetic flowmeters for you. First of all, what is an electromagnetic flowmeter?

Electromagnetic flowmeter is a common flow measurement instrument, which is mainly composed of electromagnetic circuits, measuring pipe sections, control instruments and converters. Installed in the line under test during use, the flow data is measured by passing the measured fluid through the measuring pipe section and the control instrument displays or outputs the signal.

Applications: Petroleum and petrochemical, metallurgical energy, heavy industry, farmland irrigation industry will use flow meters. Flowmeters are also divided into electromagnetic flowmeters, turbine flowmeters, and rotameters. Flange connection, 24VDC two-wire system and four-wire system.

Electromagnetic flowmeter is a commonly used instrument for measuring flow, and its housing is often made of stainless steel. So, why is the housing of the electromagnetic flowmeter made of stainless steel?

Stainless steel is a material with high corrosion resistance, so it can effectively protect the internal components of the electromagnetic flowmeter from the external environment. In many industrial applications, fluid media can have a corrosive effect on metal surfaces, and stainless steel housings can effectively prevent this.

Secondly, stainless steel is a material with good electromagnetic properties, which can effectively improve the measurement accuracy and stability of electromagnetic flowmeters. The working principle of the electromagnetic flowmeter is to use electromagnetic induction to measure the flow rate, so the electromagnetic properties of its housing have an important impact on the measurement results. The stainless steel housing can effectively reduce electromagnetic interference and errors, thereby improving measurement accuracy and stability.

In addition, the stainless steel housing has good processing properties and aesthetics. Stainless steel is an easy-to-process material that can be stamped, bent, and processed into shells of various shapes and sizes. At the same time, the stainless steel housing also has a smooth surface and an aesthetically pleasing appearance, which can effectively improve the overall aesthetics of the electromagnetic flowmeter.

To sum up, the stainless steel shell can effectively protect the internal components of the electromagnetic flowmeter from the external environment, improve the measurement accuracy and stability, and also improve the aesthetics and use value of the whole equipment.
