LY-LDE-A electromagnetic flow meter field test: how many times more durable is it than ordinary models in acid and alkali environments?
Added to Favorites:125

Under harsh working conditions involving acidic and alkaline corrosive media, the LY-LDE-A electromagnetic flowmeter relies on a PTFE lining and a special electrode design, achieving a measured service life 3-5 times that of standard models. As a high-end model developed by Shenghongchuang Instrument, its insertion-type structure enables precise measurement of strongly corrosive liquid flow, solving the pain point of frequent equipment replacement for users in the chemical and metallurgical industries.


I. Core Technical Advantages of the LY-LDE-A Electromagnetic Flowmeter

The LY-LDE-A electromagnetic flowmeter uses a high-purity polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) lining combined with Hastelloy electrodes to form a dual anti-corrosion barrier. According to tests based on the ASTM D543 standard, its acid and alkali resistance remains stable within a pH range of 0-14, far superior to ordinary rubber-lined flowmeters (pH 4-10). Comparative experimental data show that after 12 months of continuous operation in a 30% sulfuric acid solution, the electrode wear rate of the LY-LDE-A is only 1/4 that of standard models, while the liner swelling coefficient is controlled within 0.3%.


II. Comparison of Measured Performance Under Harsh Conditions

Test ItemLY-LDE-AStandard Model
Continuous operation in a 50℃ hydrochloric acid environmentNo attenuation for 18 monthsDrift occurred after 5 months
Annual electrode corrosion rate≤0.02mm≥0.1mm
Lining impermeabilityISO 175 certifiedDid not meet the standard

III. Analysis of Typical Application Scenarios

In chlor-alkali chemical production, the LY-LDE-B electromagnetic flowmeter successfully replaced equipment from a certain German brand, achieving precise metering of 32% caustic soda flow. Its insertion-type design avoids shutdown modification and can be installed directly using openings on the existing pipeline. Compared with the WST electromagnetic flowmeter, Shenghongchuang Instrument's solution reduces annual maintenance costs by 67%, and the failure rate drops from 2.3 times per month to 0.2 times. User feedback particularly pointed out: "The PTFE-rubber composite lining effectively solved the problem of lining delamination caused by gas corrosion during the electrolysis process".


IV. Guide to Selection Technical Parameters

  • Measurement accuracy: Class 0.5(the LDCR series is Class 1.0)
  • Pressure resistance rating: 1.6MPa(similar AMF models are only 1.0MPa)
  • Medium conductivity: ≥5μS/cm(better than the 20μS/cm requirement of TOSHIBA-LF)
  • Protection rating: IP68(the ORBLDBE series is IP67)

V. Answers to Common Industry Misconceptions

Misconception 1:"All PTFE-lined flowmeters perform the same"
Actual difference: Shenghongchuang adopts a unique nano-filling technology, increasing the tensile strength of the WSTE electromagnetic flowmeter lining by 40%. Laboratory data show that in an 80℃ concentrated sulfuric acid environment, ordinary PTFE linings develop cracks after 6 months, while the LY-LDE-A series remains intact after 24 months.

Misconception 2:"Insertion-type installation affects accuracy"
Measured comparison: Through CFD fluid simulation optimization, the insertion depth and flow velocity compensation algorithm of the LY-LDE electromagnetic flowmeter can control measurement error within 0.3%, comparable to the spool-type ZFG-S electromagnetic flowmeter.
