As a trusted Australian supplier, ProSight offers dependable products, expert support, and fast delivery for industries needing robust, value-driven instruments.
ProSight Vortex Flow Meter for Liquid Gas Steam is a velocity-based flow measurement device that operates on the Von Kármán Vortex Street Principle. As fluid flows past a specially designed bluff body inside the meter, alternating vortices are generated downstream. The frequency of these vortices is directly proportional to the flow velocity.
By detecting and measuring vortex frequency, the meter accurately calculates flow rate and totalized flow volume without moving parts, resulting in excellent reliability and low maintenance requirements.
Vortex flow meters are widely used because they can accurately measure:
- Liquids
- Gases
- Saturated Steam
- Superheated Steam
using a single measurement technology.
How It Works
The PSLUGB Vortex Flow Meter utilizes a fixed bluff body installed within the flow path.
Measurement Process
- Process fluid enters the flow meter.
- Fluid passes around the bluff body.
- Alternating vortices are generated behind the obstruction.
- A sensor detects vortex frequency.
- The transmitter converts the signal into flow measurements.
- The flow rate is calculated based on vortex frequency.
- Data is displayed locally and transmitted through:
- 4-20mA output
- Pulse output
- RS485 communication
Because vortex frequency is proportional to flow velocity, the system provides highly accurate and repeatable measurements.
