Electronic flow calibrators

Electronic Flow Calibrators These units are high accuracy electronic bubble flowmeters that provide instantaneous air flow readings and a cumulative averaging of multiple samples. These calibrators measure the flow rate of gases and report volume per unit of time. The timer is capable of detecting a soap film at 80... [Pg.250]

When two different metal surfaces are brought into contact, the surface space charges that were present at their interfaces with a vacuum will be modified. The electrons from the metal of lower work function will flow into the other metal until an interface potential develops that opposes further electron flow. This is called the contact potential and is related to the work-function difference of the two metals. The contact potential depends not only on the materials that make up the solid-solid interface but also on the temperature. This temperature dependence is used in thermocouple applications, where the reference junction is held at one temperature while the other Junction is in contact with the sample. The temperature difference induces a potential (called the Seebeck effect), because of electron flow from the hot to the cold Junction, that can be calibrated to measure the temperature. Conversely, the application of an external potential between the two Junctions can give rise to a temperature difference (Peltier effect) that can be used for heat removal (refrigeration). [Pg.375]

Electrical measurement, like all measurement, is a comparative process. The unit of potential difference—called the volt—defines the electrical force required to move a current of one ampere through a resistance of one ohm. Devices that measure voltage are calibrated against this standard definition. This definition similarly defines the ohm but not the ampere. The ampere is defined in terms of electron flow, such that a current of one ampere represents... [Pg.578]

The precision rotameter is a secondary calibration device. If it is to be used in place of a primary device such as a bubble meter, care must be taken to ensure that any introduced error will be minimal and noted. The precision rotameter may be used for calibrating the personal sampling pump in lieu of a bubble meter provided it is (a) Calibrated with an electronic bubble meter or a bubble meter, (b) Disassembled, cleaned as necessary, and recalibrated. It should be used with care to avoid dirt and dust contamination which may affect the flow, (c) Not used at substantially different temperature and/or pressure from those conditions present when the rotameter was calibrated against the primary source, (d) Used such that pressure drop across it is minimal. If altitude or temperature at the sampling site are substantially different from the calibration site, it is necessary to calibrate the precision rotameter at the sampling site where the same conditions are present. [Pg.247]

In this case a preset equivalence point potentiometer is applied at the two electrodes with the aid of a calibrated potentiometer (I). It will give rise to an error signal (C) provided a difference is caused between this potential and that of the electrodes. The feeble signal thus generated is duly amplified (D) and closes an electronic switch (E) which allows the electricity to flow through the solenoid operated value (B) of the burette (J). As the titration proceeds, the error signal (C) starts approaching a zero value, subsequently the... [Pg.249]
