Are there any differences between an oxygen flowmeter and a gas flowmeter?
There are many forms and types of flowmeters, large separable volume flowmeters and mass flowmeters. If the meter is volume flow meter, oxygen flow meter and gas meter structure is no difference, gas at a certain pressure and temperature, the volume count is the same; if a mass flowmeter is oxygen molecular weight is 32 kg, the mass flow rate and molecular weight is determined. However, if the flowmeter is a flowmeter made by the principle of impact force, it is different from the other, and the force produced by the flowmeter is not required. The main characteristic of gas mass flowmeter is that it is not affected by the change of temperature and pressure, and the indication reading directly indicates the mass flow of gas.
There is a difference between an oxygen flowmeter and a gas flowmeter. Because oxygen is one of the gases in particular.
The biggest difference between oxygen meters and other instruments is that "no oil", from manufacture to products, shall not touch grease substances;When oil and oxygen come into contact with oxygen, spontaneous combustion will occur, coupled with oxygen. The working medium of the instrument is combustion supporting oxygen, which can cause violent combustion and even explosion.
