A flow measuring device comprising a housing in which a principal flow duct extends in which pressure drop producing means are located responsible for a pressure drop of the pressure flowing through and in the wall of the duct the tapping openings of a plurality of tapping ducts connected with a flow ascertaining means arranged in the housing are provided. The principal flow duct, including the pressure drop producing means and the tapping openings, is a component of a sleeve-like duct insert inserted into the housing coaxially. The inner face of the socket and the outer face of the duct insert are so designed in the form of interfaces that during assembly of the duct insert a correctly coordinated fluid connection of the duct sections in the housing and in the inserts of the tapping ducts is ensured.
A flow measuring device comprising a housing in which a principal flow duct extends in which a pressure drop producing means producing a pressure drop in the medium flowing through is located and on whose duct wall the tapping openings of a plurality of tapping ducts connected with a flow ascertaining means arranged in or on the housing, are provided, wherein the principal flow duct, including the pressure drop producing means and the tapping openings, is a component of a sleeve-like duct insert inserted into a socket in the housing coaxially, the tapping ducts being composed of housing duct sections extending in the housing and opening at the inner face of the socket and of duct sections which extend in the wall of the duct insert and open at the outer face of the duct insert, the inner face of the socket and the outer face of the duct insert being designed as interfaces ensuring a correctly associated fluid link between the duct sections in the housing and in the insert.
The flow measuring device as set forth in claim. 11, wherein the annular grooves are flanked axially on either side by a sealing ring concentrically surrounding the duct insert.
