If required straight pipe section is not obtainable upstream of the vortex flowmeter due to existing restrictions on installation location, the OVAL Honey Vane S combined with a short pipe may be used to save space. EX DELTA Ⅱ SS with a built-in Honey Vane S requires no upstream straight pipe, and the accuracy is ±2% RD in liquid applications.
D-586-2-E 4.4 Pulsation Compressors, roots blowers and other pulsation pressure generating sources could adversely affect meter performance. Minimize pulsating pressures by referring to the following formula: N < 22ρ V (Pa) where N : Pulsation pressure (Pa) ρ : Density (kg/m V : Minimum velocity (m/s) If pulsation pressure is excessive, the following measures should be taken into consideration: (1) Locate the source of pulsations downstream of the meter or locate it as far from the meter as possible.
D-586-2-E 4.7 Prevention of Slug Flow This meter can measure both gases and liquids, but slug flows (where gases exist in the process liquid) will produce a loss of metering accuracy. 4.8 Prevention of Partially Filled Pipe For liquid measurement, ensure that the pipe is filled with the liquid. Do not install the meter at a location where the meter cannot remain full of the liquid or bubbles tend to be entrained.
D-586-2-E 5. INSTALLATION 5.1 Installation Location Select a location with ambient temperature in the range of -20 to +60℃. Avoid meter installation in the locations such as following: (1) Difficult to access for maintenance and servicing (2) Temperature change and/or vibration is excessive (3) Possible immersion in water (4) Corrosive atmosphere (5) Unfit for the meter’...
