Complete Flow Meter Accuracy Assurance

Accuracy of your installed flow meter is only part your true system accuracy – in 80% of cases the inaccuracy of flow meters are due to installation effects such as disturbances from valves, lacking straight pipe-lengths. Stream Measurement calibration services account for that – ensuring nothing within the pipe is effecting the meter accuracy.

Stream Measurement provide a unique on-site service to our customers that offers true in-situ flow meter testing – saving the need for removing the flow meter from its installation and saving cost.

Most competitors would either carryout electronic verification of the flow meter – which just checks for electronic drift within the instrument, not taking into account any installation effects. Other calibration companies remove the flow meter from its pipe, checking this on water without taking into account any effects from the installation that could affect the meters accuracy.

Since our service involves keeping the flow meter in its pipe – diverting the application fluid through our test equipment and either back into the application of to a collecting vessel. This means not only the flow meter is checked for accuracy, but also the entire installation – ensuring nothing within the pipe is effecting the meter accuracy. This also saves the customer the cost of removing the flow meter and the works can be undertaken whilst the customer continues production.

Stream’s in-situ flow meter test can also be undertaken between customers production runs, or even during a production run – also saving downtime and lost productivity.

Stream’s test equipment is fully certified, ensuring full verification traceability and known uncertainties, whilst our equipment is suitable for use within safe and hazardous areas.
