magnetic flowmeter sizing

1. when sizing a magnetic flow meter, in cases where the results are more than one option (meter size), what would be the deciding factor, is it accuracy or something else? results were 0.5,1,1.5 and 2 inch size magmeters

2. when to use a DC powered magmeter and AC powered magmeter?

  • Hi Yassin,
    For sizing a flowmeter , there are two factors:- accuracy and pressure drop. Keep in mind the smaller the meter the better the accuracy but higher pressure drop. So it is a compromise between accuracy and pressure drop.
    For power supply selection it depends in availability only I guess
