Product Overview
The SIKA VVX is used for flow measurement of water at low and medium measuring ranges.
It is used, for example, in mechanical engineering.
Behind a flow disturbance body, counter-rotating and mutually offset vortices are created. The vortices separate at the edges of the disturbance body and form a Kármán vortex street in the flow. The distance between the individual vortices is constant. The frequency at which the vortices flow past a sensor depends on the flow velocity and is proportional to the flow rate. The transducer detects the vortices, which are converted into an electrical frequency signal.
