Cone meter

A cone meter is an engineered primary element for demanding DP flow applications with reduced inlet/outlet runs where other primary elements cannot be used. It comes pre-assembled with a cone installed in a closed pipeline that is welded in a meter run. It is completely flexible as to the selection of the wetted materials and can be manufactured from any material in accordance with the ISO 5167 standard. The typical ¹⁄₂" or ³⁄₄" taps have a butt or socket weld, thread or flange connection. The taps can be equipped with condensate chambers and shut-off valves.

Product highlights

• Compact or separate design
• Also available as engineered version for advanced requirements, e.g. extreme temperatures (-270…+1400°C / -454…+2552°F)
• Can be made from any material if in accordance with ISO standard
• Low maintenance and long life with low total cost of ownership (TCO)
• Possible for tight-fit and retrofit installations
• Shortest possible upstream and downstream straight length for installation
• Available with calibration in accordance with national and international standards
• Low uncertainty: ±0.25….0.35% (calibrated)
• Taps can be equipped with condensate chambers and shut-off valves

Typical applications

• Liquid applications at demanding (swirling / turbulent) flow conditions
• Clean, dirty or abrasive fluids
• Steam measurement under high-pressure conditions
• Demanding DP flow measurement in limited spaces (before elbows etc.) where inlet and outlet sections required for other primary elements are impractical
• Large line size applications
