AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
When used in harsh environments, existing ultrasonic flow meters are prone to internal humidity control problems due to moisture diffusion, which affects the reliability and life of the instrument.
Method used
It adopts a modular design, including a control module and a measurement module. The control module has a built-in integrated power supply and desiccant for independent power supply and humidity control, and is independently manufactured, tested and verified during the manufacturing process through standardized modules.
Benefits of technology
It realizes effective control of the internal humidity of the flow meter in harsh environments, extends the service life of the meter, and reduces manufacturing and maintenance costs.
