FAQ Corner – What is turndown ratio?
We are occasionally asked for the turndown ratios of our flow meters and flow controllers. There are varying perceptions as to what this term actually means. The turndown ratio of a Mass Flow Meter (MFM) or Mass Flow Controller (MFC) defines the usable range for which it can operate while maintaining its published accuracy. It can be expressed using the following formula: A flow meter ...

Development of a self-rechargeable digital water flow meter
The objective of this paper is to present the feasibility of a self-rechargeable digital water flow meter (SRDFM) system for water pipes using the latest data processing and wireless communication technologies while causing negligible water pressure drop (head loss). The system uses a Pelton turbine generator to power the electronic circuit, which processes and transmits the signals generated ...

Bench-scale study of ultrafiltration membranes for evaluating membrane performance in surface water treatment
Currently, there is no standard bench-scale dead-end ultrafiltration (UF) testing system. The aim of the present study was to design and build a bench-scale hollow fiber UF system to assess the impact of operational parameters on membrane performance and fouling. A bench-scale hollow fiber UF system was built to operate at a constant flux (±2% of the set-point flux) and included automated ...
