Ultrasonic Flow Meters

20+ Years Manufacturing Experience

What are the accuracy classes of ultrasonic heat meters and how are they calculated?

The accuracy classes of ultrasonic heat meters are divided into Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3. Class 1 has the highest accuracy, while Class 3 has the lowest.

 

According to the standard CJ 128 – 2007 “Heat Meters”, the measurement accuracy of a heat meter is determined by the arithmetic sum of the maximum errors of three aspects: the accuracy of the calculator, the accuracy of the paired temperature sensors, and the accuracy of the flow sensor. The specific calculation formulas are as follows:

 

  • Class 1 meter: E=±(2+4Δt/tmin​+0.01qp​/q)
  • Class 2 meter: E=±(3+4Δt/tmin​+0.02qp​/q)
  • Class 3 meter: E=±(4+4Δt/tmin​+0.05qp​/q)

 

Among them, Δtmin​ is the minimum temperature difference (K), Δt is the temperature difference within the operating range (K), qp​ is the normal flow rate (m3/h), and q is the flow rate within the operating range (m3/h).
