1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 

 

OPTISWIRL 4070

 

 

 

 

1.1 Intended use

The vortex flowmeters are made to measure the flow of gases, vapours and liquids.

The devices are particularly suitable for the measurement of:

Clean liquids with low viscosity (< 10 cP)

Hydrocarbons with low viscosity (< 10 cP)

Water

Chemicals with low corrosiveness

Saturated steam

Superheated steam, including CIP and SIP applications in the food industry

Industrial gases

The devices are rated for the following flow velocities:

Liquids: 0.3...7 m/s / 1.0...23 ft/s

Gases and steam: 2.0...80 m/s / 6.6...262 ft/s

DN15: 3.0...45 m/s / 9.8...148 ft/s; DN25: 2.0...70 m/s / 6.6...230 ft/s

If the danger of waterhammers can occur in steam networks appropriate condensate separators have to be installed.

Suitable measures must be taken to avoid water cavitation if it is a possible risk.

CAUTION!

Responsibility for the use of the measurement devices with regard to suitability, intended use and corrosion resistance of the used materials against the measured fluid lies solely with the operator.

The sensors are made from Stainless Steel 316 L (1.4404) or Hastelloy® C22.

In your project planning, please observe the data given in the corrosion tables.

The pressure-bearing parts have been designed and rated for stationary operation taking into account the maximum pressure and temperature.

Observe the data indicated on the nameplate for PS, TS and PT (PED 97/23/EC).

External forces and moments, caused e.g. by pipe stresses, have not been taken into account.

Primarily, volumetric flow and temperature are measured, with pressure measurement as an option. From these parameters the measuring device calculates the mass flow or standard volumetric flow using pre-programmed density data and then exports the measured values via various communication interfaces.

2.2.6Free air delivery measurement - FAD (optional)

A (air) compressor draws air from the ambient atmosphere, compresses it and delivers it at the required pressure. Since the ambient atmosphere also contains water vapour, what the compressor draws in is a mixture of air and water vapour. Free air delivery measurement is to be understood under this condition. Most manufacturers specify free air delivery only at standard intake conditions. What the user ultimately requires as process air must first be determined before measuring can take place with an accuracy of ±1%.

The vortex flowmeter with the optional FAD function can measure the free air delivery online, humidity and speed compensated, regardless of its function as standard flowmeter. The integrated software evaluates the free air delivery automatically online.

The menu-driven, user-friendly software prompts the operator to enter the pressure, relative humidity, the required as well as current discharge pressure.

The steam tables and compressibility tables are saved as standard. The measuring device is optionally available with a pressure sensor which measures the discharge pressure online, making manual input of the values unnecessary.

2.2.7 Gross heat meter

In almost all applications with saturated steam, the steam is used for heating. It is much more interesting to know how great the heat flow volume is that is available to the process, than to know how great the flow is in kg/h.

As the enthalpy of steam changes with the temperature, it cannot be assumed as a constant. The vortex flowmeter has a special feature that can calculate the flow of vapour and water as power output. The enthalpy tables are permanently programmed in the memory of the device.

The online density-compensated mass flow is multiplied by the correct enthalpy to obtain the flow as power output.

Power {QH] = mass flow [Qm] x enthalpy [H]

If the gross heat meter is activated, both the totalizer for the absolute steam consumption as well as that for the energy run internally.

2.2.8 Dual seal

To cover the requirements of ANSI/ISA-12.27.01-2003 “Requirements for Process Sealing Between Electrical Systems and Flammable or Combustible Process Fluid” Dual seal, a membrane vent is integrated in the neck of the instrument. This vent works in the improbable case of a leakage as an annunciation valve between the primary seal (Process) and secondary seal (electronic compartment).

1 Annunciation valve (Membrane vent)

The sealing between the pick-up and the Flow tube is considered as the primary seal. Its construction material is always the same as the Flow tube itself (e.g. Stainless steel 316L or Hastelloy C22). Chemicals used for the process, going through the Flow tube, must be compatible with the designated material.

By using the membrane vent as annunciation valve, all requirements for a dual seal device in accordance to above mentioned standard, are fulfilled.

It protects the electronic compartment against access by process media, due to possible leakages.

The leakage of the primary seal is visible.

Regular maintenance should be performed by the customer to ensure this Dual Seal notification system is working properly or that there is no leak.

If a leakage is noticed:

The manufacturer service should be contacted for servicing or replacement of the meter.

INSTALLATION 3

 

OPTISWIRL 4070

 

 

 

3.4 Installation conditions

INFORMATION!

For accurate volumetric flow measurement the measuring device needs a completely filled pipe and a fully developed flow profile.

Please observe the instructions regarding inlet and outlet pipe runs as well as the installation position.

In the event of vibrations on the piping, select the installation site so that the vibrations are at their lowest in a transverse direction to the flowmeter.

CAUTION!

When installing the device in the piping, the following points must be observed:

Nominal diameter of connection pipe flange = nominal flange diameter of pipe!

Use flanges with smooth holes, e.g. welding neck flanges.

Align carefully the holes of the connecting flange and the flowmeter flange.

Check the compatibility of the gasket material with the process product.

Make sure that the gaskets are arranged concentrically. The flange gaskets must not project into the pipe cross-section.

The flanges have to be concentric.

There must not be any pipe bends, valves, flaps or other internals in the immediate inlet run.

Devices in sandwich version may only be installed using a centering ring.

Never install the device directly behind piston compressors or rotary piston meters.

Do not lay signal cables directly next to cables for the power supply.

INFORMATION!

If the danger of waterhammers can occur in steam networks appropriate condensate separators have to be installed.

Suitable measures must be taken to avoid water cavitation if it is a possible risk.

3.4.3 Pipelines with control valve

INFORMATION!

To ensure smooth and correct measurement, the manufacturer recommends not installing the measuring device downstream from a control valve. This would run the risk of vortex formation, which would distort the measuring result.

Figure 3-4: Pipeline with control valve

1Recommended: installing the device upstream from the control valve at a distance of 5 DN

2Not recommended: Installing the flowmeter directly downstream of control valves, due to vortex formation.

3.4.4Preferred mounting position

Preferred mounting position

1Above a horizontal pipe

2underneath a horizontal pipe (not permitted with lines at risk for condensate)

3On a vertical pipe

INFORMATION!

Depending on the installation position, you may have to rotate the display and/or the connection housing. For further information refer to Turning the display on page 25.
