Features Original imported Economical compressed air CS VA500 flow meter with RS485
Easy installation and removal under pressure
1)Even under pressure, the flow sensor VA 500 is mounted by means of a stan- dard 1/2“ ball valve. During mounting and dismounting the circlip ring avoids an uncontrolled ejection of the probe which may be caused by the operating pressure.
For the mounting into different pipe diameters VA 500 is available in the following probe lengths: 120, 160, 220,
300, 400 mm.
So the flow sensors are being mounted into existing pipelines with inner diame- ters of 1/2“ upwards.
The exact positioning of the sensor in the middle of the pipe is granted by means of the engraved depth scale. The maxi- mum mounting depth corresponds with the resprective probe length. Example: VA 500 with probe length 220 mm has a maximum mounting depth of 220 mm.
2)If there is no suitable measuring point with 1/2 “ball valve, there are two easy ways to set up a measuring point:
A Weld on a 1/2“ screw neck and screw on a 1/2“ ball valve
B Mount spot drilling collar incl. ball valve (see accessories)
Drill holes can be drilled through the 1/2” ball valve into the existing tubing with the help of the drilling device, the drill chips are collected in a filter, then the probe is installed as described under 1).
3)Due to the large measuring range of the probe even extreme requirements to the flow measurement (high volume flow in small pipe diameters) can be met.
The measuring range is depending on the pipe diameter - see table on the right hand side.
