Description
VorTek Instruments’ Pro-V Flowmeters utilize three primary sensing elements – a vortex shedding velocity sensor, an RTD temperature sensor and a solid state pressure transducer to measure the mass flow rate of gases, liquids and steam.
Systems that use external process measurements to calculate mass flow may not provide adequate compensation as process conditions can change radically between the point of velocity measurement and the point where upstream or downstream pressure and temperature measurements are being made. Due to the fact the Pro-V multivariable flowmeter measures all of these parameters in a single location; it delivers a more accurate process measurement. As well, integrating multivariable output capability with a single line penetrationsimplifies system complexity and helps reduce initial equipment cost, installation cost and maintenance costs.
