At Yantai AUTO Instrument Manufacturing Co., Ltd., our team of engineers is dedicated to identifying and resolving customer concerns. In this article, we will address some of the common challenges our clients face when using vortex transmitters, and showcase how our engineering team steps in to provide timely, effective solutions.

 

Problem 1: Noise and Vibration Interference

Another issue that can affect vortex transmitters is the interference caused by external vibrations or fluid turbulence. Excessive vibrations from nearby machinery or pipework can introduce noise into the measurement process, leading to inaccurate flow readings.

Engineering Solution: To mitigate these issues, our engineers typically recommend installing isolation mounts or dampers to reduce the impact of vibrations. In addition, ensuring the transmitter is properly mounted and aligned with the pipeline can reduce the likelihood of vibration-induced errors. In some cases, the application of signal filters on the transmitter’s output can help remove noise and provide more reliable data.

 

Problem 2: Calibration Issues Post-Installation

Finally, many customers report difficulties in calibrating vortex transmitters after installation. Incorrect calibration can lead to discrepancies between the actual flow rate and the transmitter’s output, creating challenges for process control.

Engineering Solution: Our team recommends ensuring that proper installation procedures are followed, including adequate straight pipe lengths before and after the vortex meter, as this ensures stable flow profiles necessary for accurate readings. Moreover, we offer remote calibration services, where our engineers can remotely access the transmitter and make necessary adjustments to its settings for optimal performance.
