Xiamen Hongkong Instrument Engineer will explain to you: Why does the mass flow meter need to use Hastelloy material in measuring limestone slurry?
With the development of industrial production, mass flow meters are more and more widely used in various fields, especially in the measurement of corrosive media such as limestone slurry, and it is necessary to choose materials with corrosion resistance, wear resistance and high precision. As an excellent corrosion-resistant material, Hastelloy is widely used in the manufacture of mass flow meters. This article will focus on why mass flow meters made of Hastelloy alloy are needed when measuring limestone slurries.
1. Corrosion resistance of Hastelloy.
Hastelloy is a nickel-based alloy with excellent corrosion resistance and the ability to be used in a variety of harsh corrosive environments. Because the limestone slurry contains a large number of acidic and alkaline substances, the material requirements for the flowmeter are extremely high, and the ordinary material is difficult to meet the requirements. Hastelloy alloy has good acid and alkali resistance, which can effectively resist the corrosion of limestone slurry and ensure the long-term stable operation of the flowmeter.
Second, the wear resistance of Hastelloy.
In addition to corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance is also one of the important indicators of mass flow meters. During the measurement of limestone slurry, the measuring head of the flow meter is susceptible to wear, resulting in a decrease in measurement accuracy. Hastelloy alloy has good wear resistance, can effectively resist wear, and ensure the measurement accuracy and service life of the flow meter.
3. Machining properties of Hastelloy.
Hastelloy has good machinability and is easy to perform operations such as casting, welding, and machining. This makes it possible to use various process means to manufacture a mass flow meter with high precision and complex structure in the manufacture of mass flow meters. At the same time, it also facilitates the later maintenance and repair work.
Fourth, the economy of Hastelloy.
Although the high quality of Hastelloy alloy is relatively high, its long service life and low maintenance cost make it very economical to use Hastelloy alloy to manufacture mass flow meters. In the process of long-term use, due to the high stability and reliability of the mass flow meter made of Hastelloy, it can reduce the failure rate and reduce the maintenance cost. In addition, due to its wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant properties, the service life of the mass flow meter can be extended, thereby reducing the replacement cost.
5. Summary. In summary, when measuring corrosive media such as limestone slurry, the mass flow meter made of Hastelloy alloy has excellent corrosion resistance, wear resistance, processing performance and economy. This makes Hastelloy an ideal material for high-quality flow meters, ensuring measurement accuracy and long-term stable operation, reducing maintenance costs and failure rates. Therefore, when choosing a mass flow meter, Hastelloy should be preferred to meet the needs of measuring corrosive media such as limestone slurry.
