Integral type Differential pressure flowmeter VNT Series OUTLINE VH series Wafer-Cone differential pressure flowmeter and high precision differential pressure transmitter are integrated into one flowmeter. It can measure liquids, gases and saturated steam including all high temperature fluids. It serves flow measurement for wide range of application such as air conditioning pipe lines, water treatment facilities and various chemical plants. FEATURES Simple installation Wafer connection makes installation simple. Flowmeter body flanges designed to match the pipe flanges guide to the pipe center line. Short straight runs The required straight runs are less than 1/5 of those required for orifice and vortex flowmeters. The narrow installation space allows simple and flexible piping arrangement plan. It leads to space and cost saving. Low pressure loss A proper selection of β ratio allows lower pressure loss than orifice plate with the same flow rate. It improves energy efficiency of the plant. Wide rangeability Since the differential pressure created by the meter is stable at low flow rate, it can measure the flow rate in the range of the turn down ratio 14:1 to cover the wide flow range with one flowmeter. This flowmeter is best suited for the measurement of saturated steam line for air conditioning system whose flow rate is fluctuated at every change-over of cooling and heating. Wear and adhesion resistant V shape cone has durable structure against wear or adhesion. It can measures challenging slurry or flue-gas process lines that ordinary orifice could not deal with. No connecting tube work required The connecting tube work was required for the installation of the existing differential pressure flowmeter, but a compact differential transmitter has been directly mounted, resulting in saving the installation cost. -way stopcock installed With only one-touch operation, a newly developed -way stopcock (Patent is pending) works better than three way manifold. This stopcock prevents mechanically such wrong operations as running off seal liquid in the impulse piping and over-pressurizing to the one side of differential transmitter which might occur with the traditional three way manifold. MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE The principle of V-Cone flowmeter is the same as that of a common differential pressure type flowmeter, and it is based on the Bernoulli s theorem of the conservation of a fluid energy. As shown in Fig.1, the pressure P1 at the approaching point to V- Cone decreases to P2 at the edge point with increasing fluid velocity by throttling the flow path along the contoured shape of V-Cone. P1 and P2 are measured from the differential pressure tap of Wafer- Cone, and as given in the following formula, the pressure difference becomes pressure output (P), and the square root is proportional to the flow rate. Total energy of a fluid P=P1 P2 Q=K P P1 P: Differential pressure output Pressure energy P Velocity energy P2 Energy loss Indicator and highly functional transmitter combined The LCD indicator with backlight LED allows easy reading as LED indicator at dark place, even at night. The instantaneous flow rate and integrating flow quantity alternately are indicated manually or automatically. The transmitter transmits the totalizing flow pulse signal (Open collector signal) in addition to the 4 to 20mA output with 2-wire system. FLOW P1 P2 CONE Available in all directions Vertical type has been added to the line-up, namely Bottom to Top, Top to Bottom, Left to Right, & Right to Left. [Fig 1]

The differential pressure at the maximum flow is determined by the meter size, fluid properties and arbitrary drawing ratio (β ratio), and the differential pressure range of indicator is determined. The sizing can be easily made by the exclusive sizing program of Wafer-Cone. Concerning the low pressure loss and high-accuracy specification etc., the product specification can be decided according to the application. Contact Tokyo Keiso for the details about Wafer-Cone sizing program. Further, referring to the maximum flow range on the following page, it is the typical one which has been calculated, considering the rangeability as 14:1 or :1 in the guaranteed accuracy range. Depending on the operating conditions, the production can be made even if it is out of the range. It is recommended that the sizing program of Wafer- Cone will be referred. TG-F24-5E
