Dear Expert,
Perform SMV and monitor Drive Gain reading are one of method to make sure there is no sign of deposit, particle, or coating on coriolis tube. CMIIW.
Apart of that, we want to maintain the coriolis tube by performing back flush as part of our maintenance procedure.
- Is there any recommended practice or procedure on how to perform back flush on Coriolis Tube?,
- Is there any required solvent to be used along during flushing?,
Thank you in advance,
Regards,
Faiz
Hello Faiz.
There are no restrictions on how to back flush the meter. Because the meter has no moving parts you can flow forward or backward without any concern about damaging the meter. Similarly, the solvent you use should be determined more by the nature of the material of the coating or scaling that you want to remove.
Here is a link to the Micro Motion Corrosion Guide, which you can consult to make sure that any fluid you select to send through the meter is compatible with the material of construction of the wetted flow tubes in your meter.
