V. FAQ
Q: How does the Vortex (Steam Flow Meter) work?
A: Our Vortex (Steam Flow Meter) operates based on the principle of vortex shedding. As steam flows past a bluff body, vortices are generated alternately on either side. The frequency of these vortices is proportional to the steam flow rate.
Q: What kind of maintenance does it require?
A: Regular inspection for any physical damage or blockages is necessary. Also, periodic calibration, typically once a year or as per specific application requirements, is recommended to ensure accuracy.
Q: Can it be used for superheated steam?
A: Yes, our Vortex (Steam Flow Meter) can be used for superheated steam. However, appropriate installation and calibration considerations should be taken into account.
