VFF V270
Model: VFF/V270/SS/40 bar VFF Rotary Piston Positive Displacement Flowmeter
Body:
40bar (600 psi) body provided in 316 stainless steel with 2” NPT female process connections in-line. Higher
pressure versions available with connections to suit including wafer fitting between ANSI flanges and
Grayloc hubs. Alternate materials are available such as titanium, duplex, super duplex and 17-4PH steel.
Rotor:
The rotor is provided in either anti galling stainless steel (AG, Nitronic 60), Brass (B) or Carbon graphite (C),
with a 316SS encapsulated magnet depending on the application. Part code becomes VFF/V270/SS/40/AG
etc.
Seal:
There is a single FPM O-ring seal between the top cap and body. Other elastomers are available e.g. Kalrez®,
FEP covered silicon and in higher pressure versions PTFE and Inconel.
Pick-up/Transmitter:
There is one reed switch installed in a SS housing which is O-sealed to the meter body providing a rating of
IP68. The optional Ex ia or Ex d display is mounted on the housing. Typical reed switch life is 30 years at
continuous maximum operating flow rate.
Pressure rating:
40, 207, 414, 690 and 1035 bar. (600, 3000, 6000, 10000 and 15000 psi). Part code becomes
VFF/V270/SS/690 etc.
Temperature rating:
-40°C to +150°C (subject to chemical compatibility, pressure rating and location of the display), higher
temperature sensor available.
Pulse output: The unit provides a reed switch output with 1.2 pulses per litre (4.5 pp USG).
Viscosity range:
0.8 to 2000 cSt or greater. The normal meter maximum flow rate applies for viscosities from 1.2 to 30 cSt.
For higher viscosities up to 2000 cSt a reduced maximum flow rate may apply.
Flow rate range:
- Normal flow rate range 0-16500l/hr (0-270 l/min, 4300 USG/hr, 102000 USGPD). Minimum flow rate
repeatably measured relates to application viscosity and rotor type; for example less than 1500 l/hr for 11
cSt. Consult Litre Meter for rangeability at specific viscosities with specific rotor materials.
- 50% over-range capability available for some applications – Please consult Litre Meter.
Filtration:
A 100 micron filter is advisable for 100% long life serviceability. If filtration is not possible, consult Litre
Meter.
Accuracy:
A calibration certificate is provided based on a representative viscosity fluid for the application. The
calibration certificate confirms the flowmeter accuracy. Improved system accuracy can be provided
typically to ±1% of actual reading where the linearisation signal processing facility of the display instrument
is employed.
Optional Display,
remote or head mounted:
Display of rate and total, battery, loop powered, 24 Vdc, 110 Vac, 240 Vac, optional flow alarms. GRP or Aluminium.
Exia display of rate and total , battery or loop-powered, optional flow alarms, ATEX. GRP or coated aluminium.
Exd display of rate and total (as shown), 24Vdc, 3 or 4 wire with Optional HART, MODBUS or Fieldbus comms. ATEX or UL.
Coated aluminium or stainless.
