A vortex flow meter is a highly versatile and reliable instrument used across a wide range of industries to measure the volume flow of liquids, gases, and steam. It operates based on the principle of vortex shedding, where fluid flowing through a sensor generates a series of vortices that are proportional to the flow rate. This makes vortex flow meters ideal for various applications, particularly in industries such as chemicals, petrochemicals, power generation, and heat-supply systems.

In these sectors, vortex flow meters are employed to measure a broad spectrum of fluids, including saturated steam, superheated steam, compressed air, nitrogen, liquefied gases, flue gases, carbon dioxide, demineralized water, solvents, heat-transfer oils, boiler feedwater, and condensate, among others. Their robust design and accuracy make them essential tools for optimizing processes, ensuring safety, and maintaining operational efficiency in complex industrial environments.

Vortex Steam flow meter features:

This meter is robust and universally applicable for liquids, gases, and steam, optimized for steam applications. For gases measurement, if the gas temperature and pressure change a lot, pressure and temperature compensation will be a must, vortex flow meter could add temperature and pressure compensation.
The Koncept flow meter adopts Japan OVAL technology and design. To protect the sensor, Koncept’s flow meter chose an embedded sensor with four piezo-electric crystals encapsulated inside the sensor, which is our patent.

There are no moving parts, no abrasion, non-wearing parts inside the vortex meter sensor, and a fully welded SS304 body (SS316 selectable). With a patented sensor and flow sensor body, the Koncept flow meter could eliminate drift & vibration influence from a significant aspect of the working site when compared with other flow meters.
Apart from the electromagnetic flow meter, the ultrasonic flow meter could work as a flow meter and BTU meter, adding the temperature sensor and totalizer. The vortex flow meter could also work as a BTU meter and measure steam or hot water energy.

Requires very little power consumption: 24 VDC, 15 Watts maximum. In gas measurement, a vortex flow meter could achieve high accuracy ±0.75%~±1.0% of reading ( gas ±1.0%, liquid ±0.75%), which could be used in custody transfer. In contrast, the metal tube rotameter or orifice plate is usually used for process control.

A variety of signal outputs and selections, such as 4-20mA, pulse with HART, or pulse with RS485, are selectable. In the electronic device of measuring flow, the vortex flow meter is the only one that can resist a wide temperature range up to the highest temperature, 350℃, and digital flow meters have the highest process temperature.
