Product Description
ABB vortex flowmeters are designed to measure the flow of liquids, gases, and steam over a wide range of flow rates and pipe sizes. They are based on the principle of the Karman vortex street, which is a natural phenomenon
that occurs when a bluff body is placed in a flowing stream. The vortices shed from the bluff body are detected by a sensor and used to calculate the flow rate.
Product Features
High accuracy: ABB vortex flowmeters are highly accurate, with typical accuracies of ±0.5% of reading.
Wide range: ABB vortex flowmeters can measure a wide range of flow rates, from very low to very high.
Versatility: ABB vortex flowmeters can be used to measure a wide variety of liquids, gases, and steam.
Low maintenance: ABB vortex flowmeters have no moving parts, so they are low maintenance and have a long lifespan.
Product Benefits
Reduced energy costs: ABB vortex flowmeters can help to reduce energy costs by providing accurate flow measurement for energy management applications.
Improved process control: ABB vortex flowmeters can help to improve process control by providing accurate and reliable flow measurement.
Reduced downtime: ABB vortex flowmeters are low maintenance and have a long lifespan, which can help to reduce downtime and maintenance costs.
Considerations
Pipe size: The correct pipe size must be selected for the application.
Flow rate: The flowmeter must be sized to accommodate the expected flow rate.
Fluid properties: The fluid properties must be considered when selecting a flowmeter.
Process conditions: The process conditions must be considered when selecting a flowmeter.
