Description
Applications:
The RE 250-series float-type flow meters with a standard length of 250 mm (9.84 inch) is suitable for measuring a range of liquids, gases and vapours in closed pipelines thanks to its full-metal design. The robust construction permits use under tough conditions (aggressive media, pressure up to 400 bar, temp. -40 °C to +350 °C). Various types of flanges, claddings and floats fulfil the conditions of the pharmaceutical and chemical industry.
The RE 250 float-type flow meter is used in the following industries:
- Plant and mechanical engineering
- Chemicals
- Building services equipment
- Food
- Metal extraction, production and processing
- Oil and gas
- Water and wastewater
Advantages of the RE 250 mechanical flow meter:
- Reliability (long-term stability, service life)
- Can be used for liquid, gas, vapour
- Measured media temperatures: -40 °C … +350 °C (optional -80 °C)
- Available for process pressure up to 400 bar
- Measurement range limit for liquids: 0,5 l/h to 100.000 l/h (water: +20 °C)
- Measurement range limit for gas: 0,015 m³/h to 3.000 m³/h (air: +20 °C, 1,013 bar)
- Precision: 1.6% per VDI/VDE 3513-2 (qG = 50%) – Liquids
- Silicon-free version available
- Simple device structure, easy to install and maintain
- No auxiliary energy for local display
- Simple interpretation of the measurements
- High repeat accuracy of the measurements
- Simple commissioning
- Cost-effective and simple measurement principle without auxiliary energy
- No calming section
- Manufacturer’s application expertise
- Short lead times
Special features of the RE 250 full-metal flow meter:
- Robust full-metal fitting with impact-resistant housing cap
- Can also be used for aggressive and combustible measured media
- Suitable for use at high pressure and high temperatures
- Can be equipped with optional heating and cooling jackets
- Dirt-resistant float guide
- Float cushioning, for pulsing flows or low operating pressures (recommended esp. for gas measurements)
- Optionally available with 4 … 20 mA with HART® protocol interface
Measuring tube connections:
- DIN ISO 228: G ¼ … G 3
- ANSI B.1.20.1: NPT ¼“ … NPT 3“
- DIN EN 1092-1: DN 15 … DN 150
- ANSI B 16.5: ½“ … 6“
How the RE 250 flow meter works:
The position of the float is transferred contactlessly to the display unit via a magnet system and shown there directly on the scale. No external auxiliary energy is required for this.
