Japan's Earthquake Reaches Global Recovery Without Loss of 268 Billion

Affected by the earthquake and tsunami, many companies and related industries that must use Japanese-made parts face the problem of stagnation.

"The Nihon Keizai Shimbun" quoted the government's estimates that such a chain effect may bring a loss of 470 billion U.S. dollars to the global economy.

Renesas Electronics, the world’s largest microcontroller supplier, was damaged by the earthquake in its factory in Ibaraki Prefecture and had to shut down the factory.

The report pointed out that if the factory does not resume production before the end of this month, it will also affect the global auto manufacturers, causing losses of up to 6.5 trillion yen (S$96 billion).

Shin-Etsu Chemical's Fukushima Prefecture branch, the world's premier wafer manufacturer, was also damaged by the earthquake and tsunami and forced to close temporarily.

If the factory is still unable to resume operations after six weeks, global semiconductor production losses may be as much as 1.5 trillion yen.

As for the possible losses suffered by the flat-panel TV production industry, it will be as high as 400 billion yen. The losses of other related industries such as electronic machinery, telecommunications, internet, and broadcasting total about 32 trillion yen.

Chemical Industry Mass Flow Meter

Sealand is a professional supplier of Chemical Mass Flow Meter, Chemical Mass Flowmeter, Chemical Flowmeter, Chemical Flow Meter, Chemical Coriolis Meter, ATEX, IECEx & CE approved.


The meter can work with a pulse receiver(Count). The connection is as follows. The resistance value is up to the cable length & the max. input pulse frequency of receiver. Current 10mA is suitable for most receivers; however, you can reduce the resistance value when the cable is long. The max. current could be 50mA. Please use the fixed frequency output function to check if the cable length & resistance value is suitable.

Please check following items before operation, and operate according to relevant rules. a) If the meter is damaged during shipment and installation;
b) If the voltage is same as marked on nameplate;
c) If the fuse is correct;

d) If the meter is grounded properly.
e) If the Meter SN on the nameplate of sensor and transmitter are the same.
If everything is fine, please open all valves, make the pipeline full of liquid and then power on the meter for warm-up for 20min before operation. Finally, conduct zero calibration after first start, and shall do it again if the meter is moved to another site.
Preparation for zero calibration:
a) Power on the meter for approximately 20min for warm-up;
b) Run the process fluid through the sensor until the sensor temperature reaches the normal process operating temperature.
c) Close the shutoff valve downstream from the sensor.
d) Ensure that the sensor is filled with fluid and the process flow has completely stopped.
