Flow Meter Fundamentals
Two (2) Sessions, Each Part 3 Hours (6 Hours Total)
November 30 & December 2 10:00am – 1:00pm CDT
CEU’s: 0.6
This flow course provides drinking and waste water operators with an understanding of the different types of flow meters typically used to measure the flow of water, sludge, air or biogas. For each measuring technology, the training will focus on the principles of operation, typical use cases in a water or waste water treatment plant, troubleshooting basics, installation influences, handling error codes and possible process issues and challenges.
We will also discuss how pressure and temperature can influence the flow measurement of air and gasses as well as the fundamental differences between verification, calibration and validation of instruments to help participants understand how this applies to their operations.
