Flowquip specialises in steam metering solutions for industrial process plants, energy management systems, boiler houses, and district heating applications. We supply high-performance vortex flow meters designed for the accurate measurement of saturated steam, superheated steam, and condensate systems.
Steam is one of the most widely used industrial utilities, making accurate flow measurement critical for process control, energy efficiency, cost allocation, and system performance monitoring. Flowquip's steam metering solutions help operators optimise energy consumption, reduce operating costs, and improve overall plant efficiency.
Vortex flow meters are one of the most popular and reliable technologies for steam flow measurement. With no moving parts and a robust design, they offer excellent long-term reliability and minimal maintenance requirements, even in demanding process conditions.
Suitable for both saturated and superheated steam applications, vortex flow meters provide accurate measurement across a wide operating temperature range, making them ideal for industrial steam systems.
Key benefits include:
Flowquip supplies the world-renowned Endress+Hauser range of vortex flow meters, providing advanced steam measurement capabilities for both process and energy applications.
Modern vortex meters incorporate integral temperature sensing technology, enabling direct mass flow measurement without the need for additional instrumentation in many applications. For superheated steam systems, external pressure compensation can be added to further enhance measurement accuracy.
In addition to flow measurement, selected models can also monitor steam quality, providing valuable information for plant safety, energy management, and system performance.
Flowquip's vortex steam flow meters are available in:
Typical measurement accuracy is between ±1% and ±2% of reading, making vortex technology an excellent choice for both process control and energy monitoring applications.
