A flowmeter is a device used to measure the rate of flow (or quantity) of a fluid, such as a gas or liquid, as it passes through a specific point in a pipeline or system. Flowmeters are essential tools in various industries and applications where precise measurement and control of fluid flow are critical. They provide valuable information for process monitoring, optimization, and quality control.
The choice of a flowmeter depends on factors such as the type of fluid, flow rate range, pressure, temperature, and the required level of accuracy. Flowmeters find applications in industries such as water and wastewater treatment, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, chemical processing, HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), and many others.
