Project Overview
Location: Colombia | Industry: Beverage Production Core Need: Replace turbine flow meters for 90℃ hot water systems Solution: WESDUN Split-Type Turbine Flow Meter (4-20mA output) Result: Fixed frequent meter damage, ensured stable measurement, and won customer recognition.
Customer Pain Points
A Colombian beverage manufacturer had serious problems measuring hot water flow. Three integrated turbine flow meters from another brand failed within a year, which disrupted production. At first, the customer thought the quality was poor and needed a reliable solution quickly.
Root Cause Analysis
Our technical team found the root cause: integrated meters combine the sensor and gauge head into one unit. When exposed to 90℃ high temperatures, thermal expansion and contraction reduced the gauge head’s tolerance. This caused signal distortion and eventual failure. It was not a quality issue, but a structural mismatch for high-temperature conditions.
Customized Solution
We recommended WESDUN split-type turbine flow meters. They perfectly solve the problem with these key advantages:
- Split Design: A high-temperature-resistant sensor is installed on-site, and the gauge head is placed remotely in a cool area. This avoids tolerance degradation from heat.
- 4-20mA Output: Integrates smoothly with the customer’s DCS system for real-time flow monitoring.
- Stable High-Temperature Performance: Precision structure and heat-resistant materials ensure long-term stable operation.
Implementation & Results
We completed installation and commissioning efficiently. Since then, the WESDUN meters have operated stably with accurate data. No failures have occurred so far, and production efficiency has been restored. The customer highly approves of our solution and will give priority to cooperating with us in the future.
Conclusion & Contact Us
Choosing the right product for your working conditions is key for industrial measurement. In high-temperature scenarios like beverage factories, split-type meters work better than integrated ones. WESDUN provides customized, reliable flow measurement solutions for harsh conditions (such as high temperature and pressure) to help customers solve problems.
