Dear Sir's
I have recieved a Coriolis flowmeter/Flow element (Mass Flowmeter) and our order specifications are mentioned below :
process data
Fluid- Liquid , Flow normal - 418 GPM , Flow max -460 GPM, Operating pressure-590psig ,Max pressure -1100psig , Operating temp-105 deg f, max temp-150 degF, Operating Density -.5 ,Molecular mass - 48.14,Operating viscosity- .1, Max allowable pressure drop - 10 psig
SENSOR UNIT
Type- coriolis , Function -massflow , Connection flange size -6" 600lbs, Facing -RF ,Body-304ss ,Sensor housing -SS,Enclousre-IP65, Max range-0.0GPM ,Min range -1000GPM ,ACCURACY - +-0.2% flow rate
My doubt is that Received sensor unit is having connection flange 4x3"(Reducing) 600lbs (outer flange is 4") where as our order specification was only 6" 600lbs
When we contacted vendor they confirmed that sensor flange they calculated through pressure drop and it is ok for this application
Plz tell me is it ok or not?How can we confirm whether that vendor is saying ok or not
Thanks
