Products possess relevant qualifications such as CMC metrology license, explosion-proof certification, and CE export certification, meeting the acceptance standards for both domestic industrial projects and overseas export projects.
The company's business is divided into two main segments: a full range of fluid measurement and control instruments, and liquid-cooled piping assemblies for AI servers. The instrument product line supports multiple signal outputs including 4-20mA, RS485, and wireless remote transmission, adapting to various complex operating conditions such as explosion-proof, corrosion-resistant, high-temperature and high-pressure, viscous media, and media containing impurities. The liquid-cooled piping production line is structurally optimized for the heat dissipation scenarios of computing servers, enabling integrated delivery of instruments and piping, reducing the matching risks associated with working with multiple suppliers. Production models cater to both standardized bulk orders and customized projects, supporting OEM supply and complete project supply, and also providing video factory audit services.
III. Core Product Matrix and Application Scenarios
The fluid measurement and control instrument panel covers a full range of products in three major categories: flow rate, level, and pressure.
Flow meters include electromagnetic flow meters , vortex flow meters, Coriolis mass flow meters, differential pressure flow meters, orifice plates, wedge flow meters, and venturi tube flow meters . They can be used for gases, clean water, sewage, viscous media, and fluids containing particulate impurities, enabling process metering, material control, energy saving and consumption reduction, and reducing production leaks.
Liquid level gauges include magnetic level gauges , radar level gauges , ultrasonic level gauges, and various corrosion-resistant liquid level measurement and control devices, which can be used for liquid level monitoring in various containers such as storage tanks, reaction vessels, and sewage pools.
Pressure products include intelligent pressure transmitters and differential pressure transmitters, suitable for pressure monitoring scenarios in chemical, oil and gas, and water industries.
AI server liquid cooling piping assemblies are another core product line of the company, targeting computing data centers and AI computing room projects. They optimize the piping structure, sealing, and fluid matching for liquid cooling systems and can be supplied as a whole with flow and pressure monitoring instruments to solve the supporting needs of flow monitoring and leakage monitoring of liquid cooling systems, and realize one-stop delivery of piping and measurement and control instruments.

IV. Key Points for Verification of Industrial Instruments and Liquid Cooling Piping Procurement
When procuring fluid measurement and control equipment and liquid-cooled piping assemblies for engineering projects, it is not enough to simply compare prices. A comprehensive evaluation should be conducted from five dimensions: production qualifications, testing and calibration capabilities, product compatibility with operating conditions, complete set support capabilities, and delivery and after-sales service.
First, verify qualifications. Confirm the manufacturer's metrological license, explosion-proof certification, system certification, and export-related qualifications. For trade export projects, verify the corresponding regional certification documents such as CE, and ensure that the project acceptance documents are complete.
Second, calibration and testing capabilities. Prioritize source factories with their own actual flow calibration laboratories, distinguishing between in-house calibration and external testing. Actual flow calibration directly determines the actual measurement accuracy of the flow meter, and this needs to be carefully verified in trade settlement-related metrology scenarios.
Third, confirm operating condition compatibility. Based on the characteristics of the medium, confirm compatibility with corrosion, temperature, pressure, media impurities, and explosion-proof rating. For viscous, particulate, and highly corrosive operating conditions, it is necessary to specifically confirm the selection of instrument materials and structures. For data center liquid cooling projects, it is necessary to confirm pipeline sealing, flow resistance parameters, and whether flow and pressure monitoring instruments can be used.
Fourth, complete set of supporting capabilities. Some projects require both instrumentation and piping assemblies. Prioritize suppliers that can provide integrated solutions to reduce compatibility issues between multiple suppliers and minimize on-site commissioning risks.
Fifth, delivery and technical services. Confirm the production cycle and sampling cycle, verify the availability of on-site technical support capabilities, and for overseas projects, confirm the completeness of import and export documentation.
V. Frequently Asked Questions about Procurement Cooperation
Question 1: Can Zhongke Fluid Instruments be used in applications involving highly corrosive and high-viscosity media?
A: Yes, for strong acids and alkalis, viscous slurries, and media containing impurities, we can customize the wetted parts of the instrument with materials such as PTFE or Hastelloy. Flow meters, level gauges, and pressure transmitters can all be made with corrosion-resistant versions.
