Sierra Vortex Flowmeter

 
Sierra Vortex flow meter

General Description

Sierra Instruments' Innova-Mass® Multivariable mass vortex flow meter provides a reading of up to five process parameters from a single entry point in the pipeline. The meter can measure the fluid's velocity, temperature, and pressure and calculate mass flow rate, volumetric flow rate and density. Sensing all process parameters at a single location in one integrated meter greatly improves measurement accuracy and reduces total installed cost. The Innova-Mass Model 240 in-line meters are available in 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8-inch sizes with ANSI or DN16 flanges or wafer flow bodies. The Series 241 insertion meters can be used on pipe sizes from two inches and greater. Optional “hot-tap” hardware including packing gland probe seal, retractor, and isolation valves is also available.
