McCrometer VCone Features
A New DP Technology for Difficult-to-Measure Applications.
The V-Cone's enhanced performance is due to a unique design that "conditions" the flow prior to measurement. As a result, the meter can accurately measure even the most disturbed flow and extreme pressure drops without the upstream or downstream straight piping requirements of many other meters. This ability enables the V-Cone to fit virtually anywhere within a piping layout. It is ideal for tight-space applications and as a retrofit.
 

V-Cone Flow

V-Cone Flow

The V-Cone forms very short vortices as the flow passes the cone. These short vortices create a low amplitude, high frequency signal for excellent signal stability.

The V-Cone's contour-shaped cone also directs the flow without impacting it against an abrupt surface. As a result, the beta edge of the cone is not subject to wear by dirty fluids. Because it remains unchanged, V-Cones rarely, if ever, require recalibration.

V-Cone Flow

 Pipe flow is rarely ideal. Practically any change to the piping can disturb even a well-developed flow. The contoured shape and location of a suspended cone in the V-Cone Flowmeter overcomes this by reshaping the velocity profile upstream. As the flow approaches the cone, the flow profile "flattens" toward the shape of a well- developed profile - even in extreme flow conditions.
