What is the difference between electromagnetic and ultrasonic flow meters?

Electromagnetic flow meters and ultrasonic flow meters by JINGDA differ in their operation principles. Electromagnetic flow meters measure flow by detecting the voltage developed across the fluid through a magnetic field, suitable for conductive liquids. In contrast, ultrasonic flow meters use sound waves to measure flow, ideal for non-conductive fluids.

JINGDA electromagnetic meters typically handle conductive water with ±0.5% accuracy and a flow velocity range of 0.3-10 m/s. Their ultrasonic devices offer a similar accuracy range but can measure flows from 0.1 m/s to 15 m/s, offering more versatility in non-conductive applications.

For alternatives, Siemens' (official site: Siemens) MAGFLO can be compared for electromagnetic flow measurement, whereas the FLEXIM (official site: FLEXIM) ultrasonic flow meters provide portable solutions with ±1% accuracy in industrial settings.
