In total, there are 7 different flow measurement methods that are used for measuring and automating industrial processes (FCI). They are subdivided into:
Acoustic process
Gyroscopic process
Magnetic-inductive process
Mechanical-volumetric process
Optical process
Thermal process
Differential pressure/congestion process
The media to be measured are often exhaust air, flue gases, combustion air or natural gas, pure or contaminated media, inert or aggressive.
This means that chemical resistance or temperature resistance are particularly important, which explains why the DOCERAM high-performance ceramics aluminium oxide or A 132 are the materials of choice for use in flow measurement applications.
