NEW-CONSENS LVX7 Vortex Steam Flowmeter Integrated Energy Totalizer DN25-DN300 for District Heating Metering

NEW-CONSENS LVX7 Vortex Steam Flowmeter Integrated Energy Totalizer – 2026 New Launch

New 2026 release: a vortex steam flowmeter that combines pressure and temperature compensation with an energy totaliser, delivering billed steam energy in kWh from a single device.

Steam is billed by energy, not by volume, yet most plants still buy a volumetric vortex meter and then add a separate pressure transmitter, a temperature sensor and a flow computer. The LVX7 puts all of that inside one body: vortex frequency for flow, an integrated PT1000 and pressure sensor for density, and an energy totaliser that outputs kWh directly to the billing or SCADA system.

Why This New Launch Is Worth Switching To

• Integrated pressure and temperature compensation gives direct mass flow and energy in kWh, removing two field instruments and the wiring between them.
• Saturated and superheated steam tables are built into the converter, so no external flow computer is needed for energy billing.
• ±1.5% steam accuracy across a wide turndown covers start-up, part load and peak demand without a second meter range.
• Modular sensor head can be replaced in the field without removing the body from the pipeline.

Key Design Features

• Self-diagnostic functions detect vibration interference, low Reynolds number and sensor fouling, and flag them on the LCD.
• SS304 and SS316L bodies with 1.6, 2.5 and 4.0 MPa ratings cover low pressure heating steam and high pressure process steam.
• Temperature ratings to 400 °C with optional cooling fins for superheated lines.
• Pulse and 4-20 mA outputs run in parallel with RS485 Modbus RTU for billing and SCADA at the same time.

Technical Specifications

Typical Applications

• District heating substations that bill customers by steam or hot water energy.
• Food, textile and paper plants that allocate steam cost to production lines.
• Boiler outlet and header metering where both flow and energy data are required for efficiency reporting.
