Flow Measurement Trainer

Description:

FMT001 is a bench-mount trainer that is used to teach students how to measure flow between two tanks using different flow measuring devices; Magnetic Flow Meter, Paddle Wheel Flow Meter, Venturi Flow Meter, Rota Meter and Vortex Flow Meter (option).

Developed for use with a wide variety of NI’s data acquisition and control platforms – easy-to-use, highly expandable programmable automation controllers, intelligent communication interfaces, and rugged I/O mod-ules.

These industrial I/O modules filter, calibrate, and scale raw sensor signals to engineering units and perform selfdiagnostics to look for problems.

The curriculum covered includes understanding the characteristics of the different flow measuring devices and comparing between their different behaviors and characteristics.

Curriculum Coverage:

  • Magnetic Flow Meter Characteristics
  • Paddle Wheel Flow Meter Characteristics
  • Differential Pressure Flow Meter Characteristics
  • Vortex Flow Meter Characteristics (with option)
  • Comparison between Flow Meters
