A flowmeter with built-in computer and temperature sensor

| By Chemical Engineering

The new VLM10 inline vortex flowmeter for mass, volumetric and energy-flow measurement on steam, liquid and gas applications is available in sizes 1 to 12 in. The device combines an inline vortex meter, a built-in flow computer and an integral temperature sensor giving users an all-in-one solution for their metering needs. The VLM10 is precise and reliable with a steam or gas mass-flow accuracy of ±1.5% of range over a wide 20:1 flow range. The fully welded, no-gasket design ensures safe measurement of steam and allows the sensors and RTD to be removed without having to shut down the line. A built-in Web server allows users to monitor flow and the meter’s health via the Internet. — Spirax Sarco, Inc., Blythewood, S.C.
