Vortex flowmeters are designed to enhance safety
The Rosemount 8800 Vortex flowmeters (photo) are now SIL 2/3-certified (per IEC 61508) and are suitable for safety-instrumented systems. They are designed to reduce process downtime and prevent spurious trips. A single Rosemount 8800 Vortex meter may be used up to SIL2, and the Dual Vortex meter may be used up to SIL3. It comes in a variety of configurations, supporting installations up to 12 in. (300 mm) line sizes, with flanged, wafer, reduced, dual and quad meter body styles. — Emerson, St. Louis, Mo.
