Flowmeter Calibration
The new water based calibration rigs have the ability to test and calibrate volumetric and mass flow meters with flows from just a few litres per hour right through to 60 litres per second using pipe sections up to 8” (200 mm).
The rigs use a combination of Magnetic and Coriolis master flow meters traceable to Swiss National Standards, traceable high accuracy weigh scales and volumetric tanks. The rigs are all interconnected which whilst still allowing three separate calibrations to be carried out simultaneously, also allows the master meters, scales and volumetric tanks to be cross checked against each other.
A notable feature of all the rigs is the innovative design which allows Flowquip’s calibration engineers to change the meter under test in minutes.
Stainless steel pipework, in line filtration and water disinfection means that the system is clean, free of debris, and protected against contamination.
Flowquip also offer temperature and pressure calibrations both traceable to UKAS and are happy to provide third party calibration of flow meters in excess of 60 litres per second or where specialist facilities are required such as oils and/or temperature control of Reynolds number.
