Compressed air flow meters measure the flow of compressed air in factories and research facilities.
They are crucial for optimizing the operation of various equipment, improving the efficiency of compressed air usage, and contributing to energy management and cost reduction.
There are five main types of compressed air flow meters: turbine, thermal, differential pressure, ultrasonic, and Coriolis. Each type has distinct features, with the Coriolis flow meter, in particular, calculating the mass flow rate by measuring the Coriolis effect as fluid passes through a pipe.
