Hot Water Vortex Flow Meter with Temperature to 350℃ High Performance

1. Introduction

LUGBML is based on Von Karman’s Vortex Principle, which adopts piezoelectric crystal as testing components. It is a new kind of stress detecting vortex flow meter. It has the advantage of wide range ratio, high accuracy, low pressure loss, good medium generality, pulse output proportional to flow, convenient to connect with computer and etc. As the detector probe of sensor and the vortex generating body are installed separately, and the high temperature resistant piezoelectric crystal doesn’t contact with medium, so the instrument is of simple structure, good generality and high stability.

LUGBML series Vortex Flow Meter sensor can be used to detect and measure the flow of all kinds of gas, liquid and steam.

LUGBML series Vortex Flow Meter can be used to match with our company’s ML6000 series Velocity Flowmeter. It can also match with a computer and sensors of temperature, pressure, or density to compose high accuracy mass flow or heat flow detecting and measuring system.

2. Features

• The structure of Vortex Flow Meter is simple and solid, no movable parts and it is very stable.
• Simple installation and easy maintenance.
• Wide measuring range, the ratio is up to 10:1.
• The volume of fluid is compensated according to requirements, and the instrument coefficient does not need to be re-calibrated after the replacement of the accessories.

3. Working Principle

Vortex flow meters are volume flow meters that measure the volume flow of gas, steam or liquid, the volume flow of the underlying condition, or the mass flow based on the Carmen Vortex Street principle. It is mainly used for the flow measurement of fluids in industrial pipe media, such as gas, liquid, steam and other media.

It is characterized by small pressure loss, large range and high precision, and is almost unaffected by parameters such as fluid density, pressure, temperature and viscosity when measuring the volume flow of operating conditions. Unmoved mechanical parts, so high reliability and low maintenance. The instrument parameters can be stable for a long time. The vortex flow meter uses a pyrectric stress sensor with high reliability and can operate in the operating temperature range of -20 degrees C to 250 degrees C. There are analog standard signals, but also digital pulse signal output, easy to use with computers and other digital systems, is a relatively advanced, ideal measuring instrument.

6. Design & Installation
It is important to install meter,if not installed well, then would affect precision, use-life and damage.
1． To avoid strong current, high frequency and powerful switch set, power supply of meter shall be avoided to near by these equipments.
2． To avoid high-Temp & radiation source. if have to install it, need heat insulation & ventilated measure.
3． To avoid high-Temp & enchant gas, if have to install it, need ventilated measure.
4． Vortex flow meter shall be avoided to install on shaking part of pipeline. If have to install on it,shall add clamp device and vibration pad which located on 2D to enhance shake proof . meter has better to installed indoors, pay attention to waterproof when installing meter outdoors,special notice the joint, make cable conductor to U shape to avoid water get into the amplifier body Around installing place shall save enough space,so that install connection line and maintenance routine.
