Vortex flowmeters fight corrosion with a stainless steel shield

| By Chemical Engineering

The Rosemount 8800D Series of vortex flowmeters (photo) has recently been expanded to include stainless-steel transmitter housings, which are often required for applications in corrosive environments. The new housing increases the reliability and longevity of the transmitter in these environments, greatly reducing the overall cost of ownership. Typical applications for the non-clogging, minimal leak-point design include food, beverage and life science applications, where the numerous chemical processes and clean-in-place solutions can result in corrosion and premature failure, plus offshore oil and gas applications and high pressure gas or water injection for enhanced oil recovery. — Emerson Process Management, Baar, Switzerland
