Tips for flowmeter selection- The huge array of flow technology options on
offer can make selecting the correct flowmeter for an application a bewildering
task. A broad range of factors can influence flowmeter selection, of which cost
is just one. Dr Bryan Franklin, Flow Products Manager, ABB Limited recommends a
list of top tips for selecting the best all round flow system for an
application.

Installation
and Grounding of Magmeters in Typical and Electrolytic Process Applications -
Proper installation and grounding of
magnetic flowmeters is important for accurate, reliable measurement performance.
Stray AC or DC currents through the
fluid or instrument can produce noise signals that may in turn interfere with
the relatively low flow signals
generated in today's modern pulsed DC magmeter.
Magnetic
Flowmeter Material Selection Guide -A
general resource for the selection of
materials for the magnetic flowmeter. One
of the advantages of the electromagnetic
flowmeter is that it is suitable for a wide
variety of applications including severely corrosive
chemicals and highly abrasive slurries. The key
to this versatility is that there is a large choice of materials
available for the electrodes and the flowtube
liner.
