The following steps should be strictly followed to ensure calibration accuracy and measurement reliability

1. Connect the power supply and preheat the mass flowmeter: Connect the power supply to the mass flowmeter and keep it powered on for about 20 minutes. Purpose: To achieve a stable working temperature for the internal electronic components of the sensor and eliminate the temperature drift effect during initial power on. Principle: Electronic components may have zero offset during cold start, and preheating can ensure stable circuit performance. Fluid temperature balance operation: Allow the measured fluid to pass through the sensor until the sensor temperature approaches the process operating temperature. Purpose: To eliminate thermal stress errors caused by temperature differences between sensors and fluids. Key point: Excessive temperature difference can cause structural deformation of the sensor, affecting the stability of the zero point. Wait for the fluid temperature to converge with the sensor temperature (usually determined by observing the temperature sensor reading)

3. Close the downstream throttle valve operation: Install a throttle valve downstream of the sensor and completely close the valve. Purpose: To prevent the fluid from continuing to flow and ensure that the system is in a static state. Prevent downstream pressure fluctuations from adversely affecting the zero point of the sensor. Attention: The throttle valve shou

ld be well sealed to prevent minor leaks. After closing, check the valve status to confirm that no fluid is passing through. 4. Ensure that the pipe is full. Operation: Check the sensor installation pipeline to confirm that the fluid is completely filled in the measuring pipe. Purpose: To avoid gas-liquid mixing or bubble interference caused by incomplete pipelines. Bubbles or empty tubes can alter fluid distribution and cause zero point shift. Verification method: Observe the liquid level in the pipeline or confirm through a pressure sensor. If it is a gas measurement, it is necessary to ensure that there is no accumulation of condensate. 5. Completely stop fluid flow operation: After closing the downstream throttle valve, confirm that the measured fluid has completely stopped flowing. Purpose: To eliminate the interference of fluid dynamic pressure on the zero point of the sensor. Dynamic flow can cause sustained Coriolis force, making it difficult to accurately calibrate the zero point. Verification method: Observe whether the instantaneous flow reading of the flowmeter returns to zero. Check the upstream and downstream pressure gauges to confirm that the pressure is stable and has no fluctuations. 6. Core principle for ensuring zero calibration accuracy: If the zero point is not accurately calibrated when the fluid passes through the sensor, it will lead to the accumulation of measurement errors in the subsequent measurement. Error source: Temperature drift: Insufficient preheating or unstable fluid temperature. Dynamic interference: The fluid has not completely stopped or the pipeline is not full. Mechanical stress: Poor closure of throttle valve or pipeline vibration. Optimization measures: Repeat all steps before
