Let me know first which make you have.

Instrument have min and max ranges on its name plate.
So wiht multimeter you can check 4-20ma of flow meter.It
must be 4 ma if flow is zero and 20ma if flow is max range.
supose your flow mete got 100L/hr.
for 4ma flow should be 0 L/hr
8ma - 25L/hr
12ma - 50L/hr
16ma - 75L/hr
20ma - 100L/hr

Like this you can check.

U can do the cold test by checking the sensor.It has piezo
sensors in symetrical manner. U can check both piezo
sensor by checking the capacitance. If capacitance is
accordance with size means sensor is OK. same way u can
check temp and pressure sensor(by checking the resistance)
if it has.This way u can check the healthiness of the
sensor. If u want to check the response of sensor, u can
give little vibration to the sensor by hammering on it and
check the response on transmitter. U cannot directly check
the calibration for flow on field itself.

@soumil: no hp and lp side exist in vortex flowmeter. Vortex
principle is different.

Answer / saumil

In this meter hp or lp any one side we isolate line valve and check zero if it is ok then meter is ok

I have a orifice installed in plant which is design for 0~100 inH2O for 0~80MMSCFD, now due to process change the maximum flow is change to 120 MMSCFD so for this new process value what will be the DP across orifice.

Good Evening all.My question is - For a feed water line to an equipment if i need to measure the flow we will use orifice /magnetic/vortex depend on cost/spec.If i need to measure a ''Alarm''signal and ''Interlock'' from one point i think we can use orifice type in one location with 2 different tapping points - one for alarm and one for an interlock to flow valve..If in case i need to have both these signals(Alarm & interlock) from magnetic flow meter,is it possible??will 2 seperate sensors will be located inbuilt r we can program it ??..i thk we can have one transmitter with these 2 signals...need to know any technical issues are there?pls clarify
