(ape) F4001 Description Vortex Shedding Flow Meter VF4001-002.00-13/04 F4001 Vortex Shedding Flow Meter is designed according to the principle of Karman Vortex Street, andis widely used tomeasure liquid, gas, steam flow in the closed pipeline. Picture 1 Features Compact structure With DSP transmitter @ No moving parts, high reliability, thus fewon-site maintenance is needed @ No direct contact between the sensing element and the medium @ Easy installation andmaintenance Turndown ratio is up to 1:20 lax pemeumnag sal aperaionmcal igh temperature application Application @ Sewage Treatment @ Heat Exchangers, Cooling Systems Oil Field Metallurgy Chemical Industry, Petrol-chemical Lightindustry Food Beverage Dispensing @ Pharmaceutical Industry @ Process Control @ Other Field Use _ Specification Working Pressure: 230psi(16bar)to 4640 psi(320bar) © Medium Temperature: -40 to §72° F(-40 to300C) @ Power Supply: 12 to36VDC @ Ambient Temperature: -13 to 140° F(-25 to60C) © Relative Humidity: 5% to 95%RH ‘mospheric Pressure: 0.86 to 1.06bar ledium:liquid, gas or steam \ecuracy: + 1% (For liquid), 1.5% (For gas) © Output: pulse, 4 to 20 mA, RS485 @ Reynolds No. Range: 2x10" to 7x10° (1" to4") 4x10" to 7x10° (6" to 12")(pe) F4001 ~ Vortex Shedding Flow Meter Principle If insert a bluff body vertically into the flowing cs fuid,vortexes will be generated alternatively at = We eaeea Sunes elewiosetormmes S¢ ee ES fluid to the down stream,and form series vortexes md aliewseeeeet (Karman vortex street,see Picture1).The bluff body which generates vortex is also called a5 Vortex frequency Picture 2 Diagram of vortex formed vortex shedder.Experiment proves that g.width ofbluff body which face against the flow frequency of vortexis in directly proportional to.
