The MF4 vortex flow meter covers gases, liquids and steam in one instrument, with a turndown of up to 60:1 and sizes from DN10 to DN600 (insertion versions to DN3000). Its ASSP spectral lock-in anti-vibration technology withstands vibration of 3g and above, a common failure point of conventional vortex meters.

Built-in temperature and pressure compensation with the IAPWS97 steam tables delivers compensated steam mass flow directly. Sensors can be replaced online without stopping the flow, and an anti-clogging sensor design is available for dirty media.

FAQ

What media can the MF4 measure?

Gases, liquids and steam — including saturated and superheated steam with built-in IAPWS97 density compensation, compressed air, nitrogen, oxygen, fuel gas and low-viscosity liquids.

How does the MF4 cope with pipe vibration?

ASSP spectral lock-in processing and an isolated sensor structure give anti-vibration performance of 3g or better, far above conventional vortex designs.

Can the sensor be serviced without shutdown?

Yes, an online-replaceable sensor version allows sensor exchange without stopping the process flow.
