Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide an impact flowmeter for powders and granules which can be installed with a smaller investment by removing a part of components in an existing process and improving the process with a minimum cost, without involving relocation, especially in the vertical direction, of devices composing the process, in order to meet a recent demand. Provided is an impact flowmeter for powders and granules, wherein a flow straightener is omitted by adopting a multiple detection plate structure in which detection plates of the multiple detection plate structure are coupled together through a side plate and are suspended inside a casing by four leaf springs.
