No. Standard industrial thermal dispersion mass flow meters, such as the Supmea SUP-MF, are designed and calibrated for clean, dry gases. Liquids remove heat roughly a…

Choose an electromagnetic flow meter for conductive liquids (water, wastewater, slurries, chemicals) when you can install a spool piece and want the most stable…

It depends on the model: many industrial electromagnetic flow meters need at least 5 µS/cm, some specify 20 or 50 µS/cm, and low-conductivity designs work down to about…

Yes. Vortex flow meters are one of the most common technologies for saturated and superheated steam because they have no moving parts and tolerate high temperature. A…

Choose by loop and coolant. On the facility water side (FWS), a magnetic flow meter suits conductive chilled water in larger pipes. On the technology cooling side (TCS),…

Radar is the better general-purpose choice: microwaves are unaffected by vapour, temperature layering, pressure or wind, and a 60 GHz radar such as the Supmea WSR201 has…

Most online pH sensors are calibrated every one to four weeks. Clean water applications often hold calibration for a month; wastewater, slurries, oily or…

A gauge pressure transmitter measures relative to local atmospheric pressure (0 when open to air). An absolute transmitter measures relative to a perfect vacuum, so it…
