Cadillac® Vortex CV-HS Meter
The meter of choice for high pressure saturated and super-heated steam.
Cadillac® Vortex CV-HS Meter – Installation
Cadillac® Vortex CV-HS Meter installation instructions are outlined below.
To ensure proper operation, all Cadillac® Steam flow meters should be installed with proper flow conditioning. This requires certain minimum upstream and downstream straight piping runs.
In many steam systems the meter body size will be reduced for optimum meter performance and rangeability. This requires a reducing spool piece as illustrated.
With either reducer or expander piping ensure the upstream pipe length to be ten nominal pipe diameters or more, and downstream straight pipe to be five nominal pipe diameters or more.
