System description

The Rosemount 8800D Vortex Flowmeter consists of a meter body and transmitter, and
measures volumetric flow rate by detecting the vortices created by a fluid passing by the
shedder bar.
The meter body is installed in-line with process piping. A sensor is located at the end of the
shedder bar which creates a sine wave signal due to the passing vortices. The transmitter
measures the frequency of the sine wave and converts it into a flowrate.
