Flow Meter Description  

Overview

The flow measurement methodology based on multi-energy spectrum optical quantum phase fraction technology integrates the principles of primary flow elements (such as Venturi tubes and slot restrictors) with advanced optical quantum detectors to measure the individual flow rates of oil, gas, and water within multiphase flows.

Working Principle: The primary flow element first determines the total mass flow rate of the medium. Simultaneously, the optical quantum detector measures the combined density of the oil-gas-water mixture alongside the distinct phase fractions of each component. By multiplying the total mass flow rate by the respective phase fraction of oil, gas, and water, the system precisely derives the mass flow rate for each phase. Concurrently, the system monitors the temperature and pressure of the medium, utilizing PVT (Pressure-Volume-Temperature) equations to accurately calculate the corresponding volumetric flow rates.

Key Advantages & Applications: Featuring a proprietary optical quantum detection system, this method exhibits superior adaptability to extreme temperature fluctuations and environmental interference in harsh operating conditions, significantly boosting measurement accuracy and stability. By synergistically integrating multiple cutting-edge technologies, the system achieves highly accurate metering of diverse components within multiphase flows. It is perfectly suited for applications involving oil-gas-water mixtures as well as complex multiphase flows in chemical processing. This advanced flow measurement method delivers effective monitoring and control over oil, gas, and water phase flow rates, providing rock-solid data support to optimize industrial production.

3. Ensure post-production product testing and retain data and video evidence from the verification process(testing and verification methods vary depending on the product).

Firstly, we confirm the packaged products with the factory (different products require different packaging and shipping methods. Heavy equipment and bulk shipments are securely secured within sea freight containers using custom-designed engineering steel frames, heavy-duty multi-layer wooden crates, and industrial-grade vacuum rust-proof bags. Precision instruments are protected against impacts and maintained in a stable position; the factory has extensive experience in this area. Custom labels are affixed to the outer packaging).

Secondly, we maintain communication with the freight company to confirm the condition of the goods and advise them to handle the loading and unloading processes with care.

1. Instrava offers a comprehensive 12 to 24-month warranty (specific warranty period depends on the product line), covering all manufacturing and component defects.

2. When online technical support is needed, customers can connect with factory engineers online. Real-time guidance is provided for installation, on-site calibration (for instruments), and commissioning. When on-site engineer support is needed, we will arrange for an engineer to visit the site.
