DK1125LHD SERIES

ANSI Flange design Digital Vortex Flow Meter with Integral Electronics. Loop powered with 4-20mA HART Output and Display. SMART Digital Vortex Meter providing measurement of Steam, Condensate, Liquids and Gases.

Some Typical Vortex Application Considerations:

Steam Plant Flow –

Boiler Blowdown
Condensate Return Lines
P1 Steam Before Turbine
P2 Steam After Turbine
Main Steam Lines
Superheated Steam
Saturated Steam
Boiler Feed Water
Natural Gas Flow to Boilers

Gas Flow –

Gas Main Lines in Plant
Hydrogen Cooling Lines
Nitrogen Lines in Plant
Argon Lines in Plant
High Purity Gas Plant
Liquid Nitrogen Plant
Offgas in Plant
Natural Gas Lines in Plant
Plant Air Lines

Application Considerations:

Digital Vortex Flow Meters provide a robust measurement for the process industry. Typical applications listed above have been proven with thousands of successful applications Worldwide. When considering a Digital Vortex Flow Meter for an application, keep in mind the following application requirements –

  • Orientation of the Flow Meter in the process line should be specified
  • Piping for the installation should be secure without a high resonant frequency
  • Typical installations can require 20 Upstream Diameters and 10 Down Stream Diameters
  • Single Phase Flow is required
  • Full Pipe of the process flow media is required
  • Little to no particulate in the process media (not intended for slurry applications)
  • Installation downstream from a valve which is ‘cycling’ could provide false readings
  • Changes of Temperature Values away from the calibrated range
  • Changes in Pressure Ranges away from the calibrated range
  • Changes of Flow Values away from the calibrated range
  • Sufficient Flow to provide enough velocity to maintain a constant vorticity past the Sensor
  • Proper installation and electrical procedures to insure no leakage of water into the electronics
  • Proper installation including the ‘gasketing material’ between flanges and piping
  • Avoid the possibility of using the Vortex Meter for other than its intended of Flow Measurement

Digital Vortex Flowmeter

Digital Vortex Flowmeter

You may recognize the Digital Vortex Meter as the very same one being offered by the instrument equivalents of the “Big Box” stores such as Omega and Transcat… Only their price is much higher.

We invite you to order direct from the factory at our OEM level pricing…

The digitalvortex flowmeter boasts field proven sensor technology enjoyed in Europe and Asia, where their plant and building automation systems are typically far superior to those encountered in the USA. As such our production volumes are higher so we can pass those savings to you.

There is no need for start up tuning for low flow measurements and results in the most stable measurement possible for your clean, low viscosity fluids while saving you money on installation and cost of ownership.

With an installed base of over 30,000 Vortex Meters in many of the most critical applications this Digital Vortex Flowmeter proves itself in applications such as water, steam, condensate, chemicals, natural gas and other clean fluids.
