Description

OMEGA’s FV-500B vortex flowmeter provides accurate, reliable, low-maintenance flow measurement. Vortices generated by the flowing fluid stress the shedder bar in pulses, and the shedder bar transmits the stress pulses to the encapsulated piezoelectric sensor. The FV-500B-TBL allows access to the full power of OMEGA’s new intelligent amplifier. It permits the user to display flowrate and/or total in engineering units for liquids and gases. Rate and total can be displayed in cubic feet or meters, U.S. or imperial gallons, or liters (rate and total display in the same units). If the density or enthalpy of the fluid is constant ( i.e., the temperature and pressure do not change), the density value can be entered into the meter to display in kilograms, pounds or metric tons; the enthalpy value can be entered to display in BTUs, kilojoules, etc. The FV-500B-TBL also provides an alphanumeric display of the units selected, and can be set to display rate only, total only, or to toggle between rate and total or rate in % full scale and rate in engineering units. Analog output span adjustment and low cutoff are also settable from the FV-500B-TBL— there is no need to adjust pots. The analog and pulse outputs can also be forced to output from 0 to 100% FS or 0 to 6,000 Hz without any flow through the meter as a test of the amplifier. Additionally, one FV-500B-TBL can be used to program multiple vortex meters. For steam flow measurement, the FV-500B should be used with the OMEGA ® FC-20 mass flow computer. The standard FV-500B is wafer-style to slip between 150# ANSI flanges, and comes supplied with extra long bolts for installation. Units with the suffix “-F” have 150# ANSI flanges.

Note: When ordered, the vortex meter will be programmed at our factory for your application. Please complete and send in questionnaire (call Flow Department) with your order. For further details, contact Flow Dep’t.
Indicator/totalizer adds 0.4 kg (0.9 lbs). Remote electronics option (ordering suffix “-R”) increases all weights by 2.7 kg (6.0 lbs).
Units with “-F” suffix have 150 #ANSI flanges. To order units with remote electronics, add suffix “-R” to model number and add $290 to price. Price includes 30' interconnecting cable. For 1" through 6" units rated for 400°C (752°F), add suffix “-HT” to model number and add $600 to price. “-HT” units are supplied only with remote electronics.
To order vortex meter with integral display/programming module (FV-500B-TBL) with clear cover, add suffix “-D” to model number and add $270 to price. To order vortex meter with NIST-tracable certification, please add suffix “- NIST” to part number and add $75 to price.
