FLW type vortex flowmeter is a precision instrument manufactured based on the Karman vortex principle, used for measuring the flow rate of liquids, gases, and steam in closed pipelines. This flowmeter has the characteristics of simple structure, stable performance, and long service life. It is widely used in industries such as petroleum, chemical, metallurgy, pharmaceutical, thermal power, and papermaking for measurement management and process control.
About this manual
The FLW vortex flow meter measures liquid, gas or steam flow in closed pipelines using the Kármán vortex principle. The sensor element is sealed inside the measuring body, never contacts the process fluid, and the instrument contains no moving parts, providing long service life and low maintenance.
