1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 Intended use
The vortex flowmeters are made to measure the flow of gases, steam 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
SITRANS FX300
If there is a risk of waterhammers in steam networks, appropriate condensate separators must
be installed.
Suitable measures must be taken to avoid water cavitation if it is a possible risk.
CAUTION!
The operator himself bears the sole responsibility for the intended use of the device regarding
the suitability and the corrosion resistance of the used materials against the measured fluid.
• The sensors are made from Stainless Steel 316 L (1.4404) or Hastelloy
• 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.
• 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.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION 2
2.2.4 Free 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 DEVICE DESCRIPTION
2.2.5 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 to be constant.
The vortex flowmeter has a special feature which calculates the flow of steam and water as
power. The enthalpy tables are permanently programmed into the memory of the device.
The online density-compensated mass flow is multiplied by the correct enthalpy to obtain the
flow as power output.

2.2.6 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).
DEVICE DESCRIPTION 2
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:
Siemens customer service should be contacted for servicing or replacement of the meter.

8 TECHNICAL DATA
8.1 Functional principle
Vortex flowmeters are used to measure the volumetric flow of gases, vapours and liquids at
completly filled pipes.
The measuring principle is based on the Karman vortex street. The measuring tube contains a
bluff body, behind which vortex shedding occurs. The frequency ffff of the vortex shedding is
proportional to the flow rate vvvv. The nondimensional Strouhal number SSSS describes the
relationship between vortex frequency ffff, width bbbb of bluff body and the mean flow velocity vvvv:
S.v
f
=
b
The vortex frequency is recorded at the sensor and evaluated at the converter.
