F-2600 Series Inline Vortex Flow Meters

           F-2600 Series Vortex Flow Meters are designed for accurate, cost effective mass flow measurement of saturated steam. The standard loop powered version of the vortex flow meter is equipped with the internal temperature compensation required for direct mass flow measurement. Each F-2600 Vortex Flow Meter is provided with a 4-20mA analog output for flow rate, a pulse output for totalization and a built-in user interface and display. The standard loop powered meter also includes HART. Optional versions are available with internal pressure compensation, multiple analog outputs and BACnet or MODBUS serial communications.

APPLICATIONS
