Why Turbine Meters Excel in Certain Applications
vs. Electromagnetic Flowmeters:
- Measures non-conductive fluids (petroleum products, oils)
- Higher accuracy (±0.5% vs ±0.5-1%)
- Better repeatability (±0.02% vs ±0.1%)
- Custody transfer certified (fuel, chemical applications)
- Requires clean fluids (EMF tolerates solids)
- Moving parts need maintenance
vs. Coriolis Mass Flowmeters:
- Lower cost (50-70% less for equivalent accuracy)
- Lower pressure drop
- Field serviceable (Coriolis requires factory service)
- Volumetric measurement only (Coriolis measures mass and density)
- Accuracy affected by viscosity changes
vs. Ultrasonic Flowmeters:
- Better accuracy for custody transfer
- Lower cost for DN25-DN100 range
- Works on aerated or dirty fluids
- Decades of field-proven reliability
- Requires clean fluids
- Moving parts require maintenance
Best Applications for Flanged Turbine:
- Petroleum products custody transfer and billing
- Clean liquid process control requiring ±0.5% accuracy
- Applications where proven technology and field serviceability matter
