Flow Meter Calibration system

Flowmeter calibration can be divided into four sections, namely level, liquid, gas & mobile flow calibration meters.

Level calibrations use Electrical / Electronic and Pneumatic Consoles are housed in a sleek Panel / Test Bench Rack, designed ergonomically; a stand-alone Hydro (Water) Intensifier Unit caters to Pressure Tests. With Built-in Intelligent Software (with the facility of Retrieving / Recording / Interpreting & Displaying the Readings / Values received from various Test and Standard Instruments in easily understandable/user-friendly format) is provided for generation of Calibration Certificate / Chart / Report.

Best Suited for Single JET, Multi Jet, Electromagnetic and Ultrasonic water meters covering AMI / AMR features.

Nagmans gas Calibration Standard’ of the Test Bench is “Bell Prover”, which is considered a Primary (Calibration) Standard to Test & Calibrate Domestic Gas Meters (& Gas Meters used in Hotels/Restaurants etc.). The device is ideal for OEMs, Calibration Laboratories & Calibration Service Providers.

The Test Bench, with 2 Sizes of Bell Prover (20L & 100L)will effectively cover Very Low (Qmin – typically 0.016 m3/h (0.27 LPM)) to Maximum (Qmax – 6 m3/h (100 LPM)) Flow Rates. Available Accuracies : 0.2% & 0.5% F.S.

Upto 4 Gas Meters can be connected (inserted) during a campaign. Facility provided for continuously monitoring Differential Pressures (DP) across each Meter as well as upstream & downstream Line Pressures & Line Temperatures. Line Pressures are regulated typically around 500Pa.

Nagman’s BELL PROVER

Bell prover helps the gas flow meter test bench to sample and calibrate the gas flow. It can test rota meter, gas meter, and other forms of a gas flow meter. The bell prover can move up and down automatically and the gas-output valve can switch automatically.

The Bell prover and liquid cell form a sealed space of variable volume. When the Bell moves down into the sealed liquid, through pressure compensation mechanism, the internal gas pressure does not vary along with the changed depth of the sealed liquid. Meanwhile, the gas in the Bell is exhausted to the flow meters through a connect pipe. The exhausted gas volume will be detected compared with the cumulative in the meters.

Sizes	G 1.6 to 6
Working pressure	1 KPa to 5 KPa
Flow range	0.2 m3 / hr. to 120 M3/hr
Accuracy	0.2 to 0.2%

Nagmanflow’s Sonic Nozzle

A “sonic nozzle” (also known as “Critical Flow Venturi” or “Critical Flow Nozzle”) is a flow meter that can be used as a calibration standard for gas flow meters or any flow measurement device. By design, sonic nozzles are a constant volumetric flow meter.

The nozzles are designed and manufactured to the ISO standard and as such the gas is accelerated along the Bell Mouth converging section and then is expanded in a conical diverging section, which is designed for pressure recovery. In the throat or minimum area point of the Sonic Nozzle, the gas velocity becomes equal to the speed of sound. At this point, gas velocity and density are maximized, and the mass flow rate is a function of the inlet pressure, inlet temperature, and the type of gas. So, you only need to measure the inlet pressure and temperature to determine the flow rate.

Flow Meters

Nagman flow meters are uniquely designed with engineering perfection for various flow measuring and detecting applications.

The electromagnetic flow meters operate on the principle of EM wave deduction and widely used in all water related industries like, desalination, sludge, wastewater, industrial water treatments, cooling plants, leakage detections, water distribution and Irrigation. Nagmans Electro-Magnetic flow meters are made of graded carbon steel with quality polymers in linear cover and titanium electrodes. With sound accuracy, wide temperature range & 0.5 to 15m/s velocity, Nagman’s EM flow meters are variably instrumental in providing, controlling & delivering outputs Can be operated with normal 220AC, 24VDC supply with 3.6 volts battery.

Nagmanflow'sCoriolis mass flow meters are designed to measure liquid flow inside tubes range from 8 to 2500000 kg/hr for liquid & 4 to 2500000 kg/hr for gases. These Coriolis meters have a temp range from -50 to 200 deg Celcius & a fine accuracy range from 0.1 to 0.5.

Nagmansflow's vortex flow meters are designed to measure flow in high viscous fluids, with the principle of vortices vs flow velocity calibration. These vortex flow meters are widely used in oil, petrochemical, pharmaceutical & water treatment industries. Nagmans Vortex flow meters come with wide flow range for liquid and gases, wide temperature range and fine accuracy of 0.1.

Nagmanflow's positive displacement flow meters work in the principle of internal parts disruption by fluid flow, which tends to measure the output with the flow velocity. These positive displacement flow meters have a flow range of 0.3 m3/hr to 1800m3/hr with medium temp range from -20 to 250 deg Celcius. Proofed with anti-explosion grade pressure loss parameters, repeatability & the accuracy are its unique instrumentation merits in performance. 

Nagmanflow's ultrasonic flow Meters measures the velocity of flowing fluid with ultrasonic sound beams in volumetric. These ultrasonic flow meters come with fine accuracy 0.1, medium temperature range -10 to 160 deg Celcius & velocity to 0 to 10m/s. Ultrasonic flow meters are designed to meet versatile.

Process flow calibration systems from Nagmanflow/ Mobile flow calibration systems are customized designed instruments considering various industrial applications where required. These process flow calibration systems come with fine accuracy of 0.2 to 0.05, flow range from 1 to25000 lpm, calibration methods such as volumetric/ Gravimetric / comparison. Retrofitted with display, control and timer options, these process flow calibrations systems are embedded with PLC/ SCADA/ HMI remote control options. The all advantage is that all variants of flow meters can be used as a principle in design based on customer demand.
