Types of Vortex flow meter

Inline vortex flow meters
Inline vortex flow meters, also known as wafer-style meters, are directly installed in the pipeline. They feature a compact design and are suitable for applications with limited space. The streamlined construction ensures minimal pressure drop, making them ideal for high-flow applications.

 

Insertion vortex flow meters
Insertion vortex flow meters is inserted into the pipeline through a tap or flange. These meters are versatile and can be used in pipes of various sizes. They offer flexibility in terms of installation, as they can be easily adjusted or repositioned as per the flow conditions.Insertion meters are cost-effective and suitable for applications where the pipeline cannot be modified or shut down for installation.

 

Advantages of Vortex Flowmeter

 

 

Versatility These flow meters are highly versatile, capable of effectively measuring the flow of liquid, gas, or steam. This adaptability makes them invaluable in diverse industrial settings.

Durability This model has few moving parts. This design simplicity means there's less room for failure, resulting in low maintenance and a reduced risk of malfunction.

Independence from temperature and pressure fluctuations. Vortex flow meters can measure flow rates independently of temperature and pressure fluctuations within the system. They provide consistent and reliable data even in dynamic conditions.

No conductivity requirement Unlike some flow measurement technologies, vortex meters do not require a specific level of conductivity in the flow media. This makes them a great solution for deionized water systems.

Low setup cost: These meters are cost-effective to install. That feature makes them especially attractive for businesses looking to improve flow measurement without a significant financial outlay.

 

Application of Vortex Flowmeter

 

Industrial

In industrial process control, accurate flow measurement is essential for monitoring and regulating fluid movement. Vortex flow meters are widely used because they can measure both liquids and gases with high accuracy. Their ability to handle high pressures and temperatures makes them suitable for critical applications like chemical dosing, cooling water management, and compressed air monitoring.

01

Oil and Gas Industry

The oil and gas industry relies on precise flow measurement for safety and efficiency. Vortex flow meters are preferred because they can withstand harsh conditions, such as high pressures, extreme temperatures, and corrosive fluids. They are commonly used to measure natural gas, crude oil, and steam flow, offering reliable readings without frequent maintenance.

02

Chemical plants

Chemical plants use vortex flow meters to measure aggressive liquids, steam, and gas flows in production lines. Their non-moving parts design makes them resistant to wear, even when handling corrosive or abrasive chemicals. Proper vortex flow meter installation helps maintain measurement accuracy, especially in systems with variable flow rates or pulsating pressures.

03

Water and Wastewater

Vortex flow meters play a key role in water and wastewater management by providing accurate flow data for monitoring distribution networks, treatment processes, and discharge lines. Their ability to handle varying flow rates and tolerate impurities makes them suitable for measuring raw water, treated water, and even sludges.

04

Power Plants

In power plants, measuring fluid and steam flow is essential for maintaining system efficiency. Vortex flow meters are widely used for monitoring cooling water, fuel flow, and steam applications in boilers and turbines. Their ability to withstand high temperatures and pressures makes them ideal for energy-intensive processes.

Installation Recommendations

 

When installing a vortex flowmeter in an existing process where the flow range is not known, it is recommended to first make some approximate measurements (using portable pitot tubes or clamp-on ultrasonic devices). Otherwise, there is no guarantee that a line-size vortex meter will work at all.

 
 

The vortex meter requires a well-developed and symmetrical flow velocity profile, free from any distortions or swirls. This necessitates the use of straight up and downstream piping to condition the flow. The straight length of pipe must be the same size as the meter and its length should be about the same as required for an orifice installation with a beta ratio of 0.7. Most vortex flowmeter manufacturers recommend a minimum of 30 pipe diameters downstream of control valves, and 3 to 4 pipe diameters between the meter and downstream pressure taps. Temperature elements should be small and located 5 to 6 diameters downstream.

 
 

About half of all vortex meter installations require the "necking down" of oversized process piping by concentric reducers and expanders. Even if flow straighteners are installed, some straight (relaxation) piping will still be required.

 
 

Mating flanges (on the schedule 40 or schedule 80 mating piping) must have the same diameter and smooth bore as the flow meter. Weld neck flanges are preferred and reducing flanges should not be used. The inner surface of the mating pipe should be free from mill scale, pits, holes, reaming scores and bumps for a distance of 4 diameters upstream and 2 diameters downstream of the meter. The bores of the meter, the gaskets and the adjacent piping must be carefully aligned to eliminate any obstructions or steps.

FAQ

Q: Do vortex flow meters measure volume or mass?

A: Vortex flow meters primarily measure volumetric flow rates. However, they can calculate mass flow, with the caveat that this calculation is density-dependent. Thus, variability in the solution's density can cause inaccurate calculations.

Q: What is the pressure drop for a vortex flow meter?

A: This meter is considered to have a low to medium pressure loss. Since the flow is impeded by the bluff body, there is some drop in pressure. The pressure loss is a function of the flow velocity and fluid density. If your application is particularly sensitive to pressure drops, there are some other options that avoid a loss of pressure.

Q: How accurate is a vortex flow meter?

A: The typical accuracy of a vortex flow meter for fluids ranges from ±2% to ±5%, while for gasses, it is ±1% to ±2%. These accuracy levels are generally acceptable for a wide range of industrial applications.

Q: Are you a factory or a trading company ?

A: We are a factory and trading company at the same time.

Q: How about the quality of the products ?

A: Our products are of high quality and we have registered and reputable brands.

Q: What's the MOQ for each items ?

A: 100 pieces.

Q: What's the shipping method?

A: By express way, such as Fedex, DHL, TNT and so on; by air; by sea. Shipping cost is decided by shipping ways& product actual weight &volume and your detailed address.

Q: What's the Payment method?

A: We support various payment way(T/T, Visa card, Western union, Moneygram, Secure payment-Escrow, etc.).

Q: Can we print our own brand or logo on your products?
