VSE Flow Meter Vs Series
VS positive displacement flow meters are volume rate measuring sensors based on the meshing gear principle and are designed for use with liquids. Two precisely matched gear wheels are enclosed in a very accurately machined housing. Gear rotation is sensed by a noncontacting signal pick-up System. Each work produces one signal.
VSE Flow Meter Rs Series
RS flow meters measure the flow rate based on the screw pump principle. The newly developed rotor profiles ensure a low-resistance, high-precision measurement while gently transporting the measuring medium.
VSE Flow Meter EF Series
The VSE EF ecoflow is an inexpensive alternative to the VS Series for measuring tasks with lower standards of technical characteristics such as accuracy, pressure, temperature, etc.
VSE Flow Meter VHM Series
The positive displacement gear flow sensors of the VHM Series are based on the meshing gear principle and were developed for high precision flow metering for a wide variety of liquids, especially liquids with high abrasiveness and poor lubricity.
VSE Flow Meter VTR Series
TURBINE FLOWMETER
Turbine flow meters are precise and reliable measuring equipment, designed for varied applications. VTR flow meters can be installed even under the harshest application conditions including oil, petrochemical and chemical industries as well as other industrial sectors.
VTR – SERIES

Oil Gear Flow Meter

VSE Flow Meter VHM Series
The positive displacement gear flow sensors of the VHM Series are based on the meshing gear principle and were developed for high precision flow metering for a wide variety of liquids, especially liquids with high abrasiveness and poor lubricity. Each tooth generates an impulse by recognition of the gear rotation by a non-contact detection system according to the carrier frequency principle. Additionally, the flow sensors of the VHM Series are dead spaced optimized for (easy flushing) use in the paint industry and for paint spraying systems.

Helical Screw Flow Meter RS type

VSE Flow Meter RS Series
RS flow meters measure the flow rate based on the screw pump principle. The newly developed rotor profiles ensure a low-resistance, high-precision measurement while gently transporting the measuring medium.

VSE optimized material and technology in the bearing area. The combined radial / axial slide bearing is shielded behind bearing brackets shaped to be flow-optimized. The bearings are made from tungsten carbide and, first time in positive displacement flow meter, also made from silicium carbide (SSiC).

A sensor module was developed that enhances the functionality of the RS flow meter significantly. The sensor itself features two GMR bridges (sin / cos) and is housed in a removable stainless steel cartridge case together with a signal conditioning and amplifier unit. The downstream electronics unit features a high-resolution sin / cos-interpolator. Among others, the device features a programmable signal filter, which is able to offset unwanted, negative pulse sequences and detects and saves values that exceed the indicated flow and temperature values. A separate directional signal is available for 1-channel evaluations.

VSI Series – High definition with special preamplifier
As a very high resolution is necessary for precise and exact flow measurements, the volume measurement Vm must be resolved even more than with conventional preamplifiers. VSE has therefore developed the preamplifier with interpolation, with which a selectable resolution of up to 64 flanks (16 pulses) per period can be attained.

This individually programmed high resolution enables to set the volume measurement Vm optimally for each provided case of application. Furthermore, new applications can be availed with the higher resolution. With the VSI flow meter, measuring, controlling and regulating in lower flow ranges, in zero flow, in both flow directions as well as dosing and filling of small volumes becomes possible.

Advantages

Accurate volume measurement
Fast detection of flow changes
Higher accuracy, faster response times
Higher frequency with low flow rates
Measuring media with high viscosity
Precise measurement and dosage of volume
Better and more precise operations of digital controls
Faster and better analogue output
