FAQ
What is a vortex flow meter and how does it work?
A vortex flow meter measures the flow of liquids, gases, and steam by detecting vortices (swirling eddies) that form behind a bluff body placed in the flow path. This principle, known as the Kármán vortex shedding effect, allows the meter to generate a pulse signal proportional to the flow velocity for accurate measurement.
What industries commonly use vortex shedding flow meters?
Vortex flow meters are widely used in industries such as power generation, chemical processing, petrochemical, water treatment, food and beverage, pulp and paper, and oil & gas, where precise and reliable flow measurement is critical.
What are the advantages of using a vortex type flow meter?
Key benefits include no moving parts (reducing maintenance), high accuracy, wide measurement range, immunity to vibration and electromagnetic interference, and suitability for measuring liquids, gases, and steam in harsh industrial environments.
Can vortex flow meters measure high viscosity fluids?
Yes, vortex flow meters like the MGVF are designed to handle a range of fluids including high-viscosity liquids, making them suitable for demanding industrial applications involving thick fluids.
How does the vortex flow transmitter enhance measurement accuracy?
The integrated vortex flow transmitter converts the vortex signals into standardized pulse outputs that can be easily integrated with industrial control and monitoring systems, ensuring precise and real-time flow data.
