Reliable, maintenance-free flow measurement with new hi-tech transmitter.
The robust vortex flowmeters FSV400 provide reliable measurement of liquid, gas and steam and are available inflange-mount and wafer-type designs.
- Digital signal processing for volume flow, totalisation and pulse outputs leads to high reliability and flexibility
- Direct mass flow or standard flow measurement without additional flow computer
- Hot pluggable display unit with through the glass (TTG) operation
- Integrated 4…20 mA and HART 7 interface for pressure, gas content, temperature or medium density input
- Latest hazardous approvals incl. Zone 0 / Zone 20 approvals
Intuitive operation:
- “Easy Set-up” function for comfortable and easy configuration
- Clear text display for intuitive operation
- Meter set-up through the glass with closed cover
- Meter diagnostics with clear help texts in the display
- Auto-Zero function for noisy applications
- Common usage philosophy with ABB’s flow meters and other 2-wire measurement products from ABB
The functional design makes VortexMaster FSV400 adaptable to all processes and conditions.
- Modern and fast digital signal processing with excellent vibration compensation and meter diagnostics reliable flow measurement
Integrated flow computer functionality for:
- direct mass flow of saturated and overheated steam
- direct energy flow calculation for steam
- energy calculation in heating/cooling circuits
- net methane measurement and totalisation
- natural gas calculation according to AGA or SGERG standards
With no moving parts, VortexMaster is nearly wear-free and an ideal replacement for mechanical meters.
As the sensor is placed behind the bluff body, no particle build-up or deposits affect the measurement. Due to its high measuring dynamic and accuracy and its low installation cost the wafer-type design with an insertion length of 65 mm (DIN version) is the perfect alternative to orifice plate flowmeters.
Your benefits:
- High process reliability through robust design
- Simple, cost-saving installation
