- Page 5 Always remove main power before disassembling any part of the mass flow meter. Caution! Calibration must be performed by qualified personnel. VorTek Instruments, Inc., strongly rec- ommends that you return your flow meter to the factory for calibration. In order to achieve accurate and repeatable performance, the flow meter must be in- stalled with the specified minimum length of straight pipe upstream and downstream of the flow meter’s sensor head.

Page 7: Chapter 1 Introduction
Chapter 1 Introduction Pro-V™ Vortex Flow Meters The VorTek Instruments’ Model M22 In-Line and the Model M23 Inser- tion Pro-V™ Vortex Flow Meters provide a reliable solution for process flow measurement. From a single entry point in the pipeline, Pro-V me- ters offer precise measurements of mass or volumetric flow. -
Page 8: Note And Safety Information
Receipt of System Components When receiving a VorTek flow meter, carefully check the outside pack- ing carton for damage incurred in shipment. If the carton is damaged, no- tify the local carrier and submit a report to the factory or distributor. Re- move the packing slip and check that all ordered components are present. -
Page 9: How The Pro-V Vortex Flow Meter Operates
How the Pro-V Vortex Flow Meter Operates Figure 1-1. Model M22 In-Line Vortex Flow Meter ™ VorTek Model M22 and M23 Pro-V Vortex Flow Meters use a unique velocity sensor head to monitor volumetric flow rate. The built-in flow computer calculates mass flow rate based on a constant value of fluid density stored in the instrument’s memory. - Page 10 Chapter 1 Introduction Model M22/M23 Instruction Manual Vortex Shedding Frequency Von Karman vortices form downstream of a shedder bar into two distinct wakes. The vortices of one wake rotate clockwise while those of the other wake rotate counterclockwise. Vortices generate one at a time, al- ternating from the left side to the right side of the shedder bar.
- Page 11 Model M22/M23 Instruction Manual Chapter 1 Introduction Flow Velocity Range To ensure trouble-free operation, vortex flow meters must be correctly sized so that the flow velocity range through the meter lies within the measurable velocity range (with acceptable pressure drop) and the linear range.
- Page 12 Chapter 1 Introduction Model M22/M23 Instruction Manual ™ As shown below, Pro-V Vortex Flow Meters exhibit a constant Strou- hal number across a large range of Reynolds numbers, indicating a con- sistent linear output over a wide range of flows and fluid types. Below this linear range, the intelligent electronics in Pro-V automatically cor- rects for the variation in the Strouhal number.

Page 13: Flow Meter Configurations
Model M22/M23 Instruction Manual Chapter 1 Introduction Flow Meter Configurations Pro-V™ Vortex Flow Meters are available in two configurations: • Model M22 in-line flow meter (replaces a section of the pipeline) • Model M23 insertion flow meter (requires a “cold” tap or a “hot” tap into an existing pipeline) Both the in-line and insertion configurations are similar in that they both use identical electronics and have similar sensor heads. - Page 14 Chapter 1 Introduction Model M22/M23 Instruction Manual The meter includes a local 2 x 16 character LCD display housed within the enclosure. Local operation and reconfiguration is accomplished using six push buttons. For hazardous locations, the six push buttons can be operated through the sealed enclosure using a hand-held magnet, thereby not compromising the integrity of the hazardous location certification.
