METER ELECTRONICS AND METHOD FOR DETECTING A RESIDUAL MATERIAL IN A FLOW METER ASSEMBLY

摘要

A meter electronics (20) and method for detecting a residual material in a flow meter assembly (10) are provided according to the invention. The meter electronics (20) includes a processing system (22) adapted to direct the flow meter (5) to vibrate the flow meter assembly (10) and receive a vibrational response (31) from the flow meter assembly (10). The meter electronics (20) further includes a storage system (24) configured to store flow meter parameters and data. The meter electronics (20) is further characterized by the processing system (22) being configured to compare the vibrational response (31) to a predetermined residual material threshold (30) to detect the residual material.
