Precise Measurements of Flow Rates of Liquids and Powders with Only a Balance
14 Oct 2018Balances are often used for measuring flow rates. For example, they are found in production lines where they are used to improve the accuracy and stability of transfer pumps or constant supply devices. They are also used in laboratories to control the flow rates of solutions added to culture media for cell cultures.

Balances and Moisture AnalyzersBalances & Moisture Analyzers / weighing scales measure static or dynamic loads. Features to consider when choosing an analytical balance include accuracy, capacity and resolution. Additional features and specialized balances include enclosures for weighing powder, microbalances for measuring small quantities, portable balances, moisture analyzers, top loading balances and internal calibration for measurements over time or with varied temperature.Flow ChemistryFlow chemistry describes a chemical reaction being carried out continuously rather than in a batch process. The reagents are pumped through a pipe and forced together at a mixing junction, where they are allowed to combine until the reaction is stopped.
