Regulating inflow of liquids by a float-type flowmeter incorporating a photoelectric sensing device.Peer-reviewed article

F. VAŇO, J. KARABELLI, J. TÓTH, V. SOCHOROVÁ

The authors describe a new device which has been developed for regulating the inflow of liquids by means of a rotameter with a photoelectric sensing unit indicating the position of the flow. The system operates very reliably being at the same time extremely accurate. Irrespective of the size of pipes in the float-type flowmeter the deviations from the preset values do not exceed ± 1 %. Such accuracy meets fully the requirements of food industry. Accurate metering of inflowing nutritive solutions contributes to the stability of the process, which in its turn will be reflected in higher yields and higher quality of the final product.
