Flow Meters

What Are Flow Meters?

Flow meters measure the volumetric or mass flow rate of a liquid or gas. Yokogawa's range of flow meter instruments include vortex, magnetic, variable area, Coriolis, and differential pressure flow meters.

Overview:

Angel Yeast Co., Ltd. is a leading global player in the yeast and deep-processed products industry, with production bases in 13 cities worldwide. Their yeast series products account for over 17% of the global market, ranking second globally.
In their production process, additives like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are crucial, requiring accurate measurement and stabilization to ensure the final product meets specifications. Yokogawa proposed the AXG electromagnetic flowmeter as a solution, providing dual-frequency excitation for both rapid response and reduced noise.

Overview:

During MSG manufacturing it is crucial to control flow during the neutralization process. Unfortunately, traditional magnetic flowmeters encounter accuracy issues due to coating on electrodes from liquids like crystal, slurry, and high-viscosity fluids. Learn how our innovative technology ensures stable measurements even with challenging fluids. Don't miss out on improved accuracy and reduced maintenance downtime.

Overview:

Yokogawa’s latest generation of ADMAG AXG Series is the most suitable magnetic flowmeter with adhesion level diagnosis and dual-frequency excitation method provides stable flow measurement even under high flow noise in the severe applications like the flow of aluminum slurries.

Application Note
Overview:

Avoid flashing issues while loading cryogenic liquids with safe, reliable, and accurate density fluid measurements utilizing Yokogawa’s industry-leading Coriolis flowmeter to eliminate measurement issues and increase the accuracy of inventory. 

Overview:

The Coriolis flow meter has many features such as direct measurement of mass flow and measurement of fluid density, which other flow meters do not support. Therefore, since being introduced for practical use in the late 1970s, its market has rapidly expanded in many industries such as oil, chemicals, and foods.

Yokogawa Technical Report
Overview:

Vortex flow meters were put into practical use in the 1970's; thus their history is relatively short. They have been mainly used at petrochemical plants because of their two main features, the fact that they do not have any mechanical moving parts and are maintenance-free. Yokogawa started research and development on the vortex flow meter before 1970.
