Overview
A Venturi tube is an engineered primary flow element for the most efficient and accurate differential pressure (DP) flow measurement. The typical Venturi shape with limited cone angles enable a pressure recovery of up to 95% of the generated DP. Together with optional annular chambers to balance deviation in the flow profile. With low maintenance requirements and a long life the Venturi tube offers a low total cost of ownership. A special Venturi tube that enables online measurement of additional process parameters such as steam wetness can also be provided.
