The RBVF series Vortex flow meter is based on
Karman (Carmen) vortex principle research and
production, mainly for industrial piping dielectric fluid
flow measurement, such as gas flow rate of gases (air,
oxygen, nitrogen, coal gas, natural gas, chemical gas,
etc.), liquid, steam and other media. The product adopted
advanced differential technique, together with
measurement of isolating, shielding and filtering, it had
possessed better anti-vibration performance and signal
stability and are used in automatic control system as flow
transmitter.
The RBVF Series Vortex Flow Meter Features:
 No moving mechanical parts
 Low maintenance
 Low pressure loss
 Large measuring range
 High accuracy
 High reliability
 24V, battery or dual power
 Temperature and pressure compensation

The RBVF Series Vortex Flow Meter Applications:
 Energy Measurement: Energy into primary energy (coal, crude oil, coal
bed methane, LPG and natural gas), secondary energy (electricity, coke,
artificial gas, refined oil, liquefied petroleum gas, steam) and energy
carriers working fluid (air, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, water);
 Industrial Production: Widely are used in metallurgy, electric power,
coal, chemical, petroleum, transportation, construction, textile, food,
medicine, agriculture, environmental protection and people's daily life,
and other fields of national economy, the development of industrial and
Ensure meter for Installing, design & caliber

agricultural production, energy conservation, improve product quality an
important tool to improve economic efficiency and management level
plays an important role in the national economy.
 Environmental Protection: Flue gas emissions, waste, sewage and other
heavily polluted air and water, a serious threat to the human
environment. National sustainable development as a national policy,
environmental protection will be the biggest problem of the 21st
century. Pollution of air and water to be brought under control, we must
strengthen management, and infrastructure management is a quantitative
amount of pollution control.
 Transportation: There are five ways: Railway road, air, water, and
pipeline transport. Wherein the pipeline transport, although it has long
been, but the application is not common. With the outstanding
environmental issues, pipeline transport characteristics attracted people's
attention. Pipelines must be equipped with the meter, it is the control,
allocation and scheduling eyes, is also not safe and economic accounting
supervisor essential tool.
