Why need Herbicides and pesticides flow meters?
Herbicide refers a kind of chemical that can kill weeds completely or selectively, and are used to destroy or inhibit plant growth. Herbicides containing sodium chlorate, borax, arsenate, and trichloroacetic acid have a deadening effect on any kind of plant. Herbicides and Pesticides flow rate measurement is needed in pesticide production and manufactures. Herbicides and pesticides flow transmitter belongs to chemical flow meter.
Herbicides and pesticides flow meter types
We have several types’ flow meter devices for herbicides and pesticides:
Coriolis mass flow meter is not cheap, but very accurate;
Positive displacement flow meter: gear flow meter or oval gear flow meter is a good solution for inline herbicide and pesticides flow measurement
Liquid turbine flow meter: Inline industrial volumetric flow meters
Electromagnetic flow meter for herbicides and pesticides flow measurement
Herbicide Flow meter –Gear type flow meter
Gear flow meter is a kind of positive displacement flow meter (PD flow meter), it can directly accumulate the herbicides and pesticides flow rate based on the volume of the discharged fluid. The flow sensor uses a fixed small volume to repeatedly measure the volume of fluid passing through the flow meter.
Features of gear type herbicide Flow meter
-
Herbicide Flow meter flow sensor: 2mm,4mm,6mm,8mm,1/4”, 1/8”,1/2”,1”, 1.5”
