Through many tests and improvements, ANDISOON summed up our experience and finally determined an inlet and outlet combined splitter cone, vacuum nickel-based brazing and heat treatment technology suitable for the CNG flowmeter produced by our company.
1. Imported combined splitter cone (obtained utility model patent - patent number: 201020170649.5)
The inlet end and the outlet end are structurally symmetrical and are connected by a pipe body. The inlet end and the outlet end are composed of an interface joint, a shunt cone, two measuring tubes and a measuring tube joint, wherein the interface joint and the measuring tube joint form a The two are docked and positioned with a shunt cone. The measuring tube is inserted into the measuring pipe joint and then welded. The shunt cone is inserted into the measuring tube and the measuring pipe joint. The measuring tube and the shunt cone maintain a tight positioning fit.
The measuring tube and the measuring tube joint are welded by argon arc welding; the diverter cone is inserted into the inner hole of the measuring tube joint in the axial and radial directions, and the diverter cone is positioned in conjunction with the measuring tube in the circumferential direction.
The interface joint is placed on the diverter cone, so that the outer cone surface of the diverter cone and the inner cone surface of the interface joint are positioned axially, and the inner hole of the interface joint is positioned radially. The interface joint and the diverter cone are also integrally pressed. Tight and welded with argon arc welding.
