The YOYI YYVT series vortex flow meter measures steam, compressed air, gases and low-viscosity liquids using a bluff body that sheds vortices at a frequency proportional to flow. With no moving parts, it delivers years of stable, maintenance-free service in demanding energy applications.
Standard configurations are listed below. Custom liners, electrodes, connections and communication options are available on request.
| Model | DN | Steam range | Connection | Pressure |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| YYVT-15 | DN15 | 3 – 60 kg/h | Thread / wafer | PN25 |
| YYVT-25 | DN25 | 8 – 170 kg/h | Wafer / flange | PN25 |
| YYVT-50 | DN50 | 30 – 650 kg/h | Flange | PN25 |
| YYVT-100 | DN100 | 120 – 2600 kg/h | Flange | PN16 / PN25 |
| YYVT-200 | DN200 | 480 – 10500 kg/h | Flange | PN16 |
| YYVT-300 | DN300 | 1100 – 23000 kg/h | Flange | PN16 |
Steam ranges are indicative for saturated steam at 0.8 MPa. Insertion-type YYVT-I covers DN150 – DN2000 at reduced cost.
A bluff body in the flow sheds alternating vortices (the von Karman street). The shedding frequency is proportional to velocity, and a piezo sensor behind the body detects each vortex as a pressure pulse.
With optional temperature and pressure inputs, the converter converts volumetric flow into mass flow and energy, which is what steam accounting actually needs.

Usually condensate or wet steam at the meter, or insufficient straight run. Dry saturated steam needs 15D upstream; wet steam should be separated first.
Yes, IP67 with a sunshade. For freezing climates specify the heated enclosure option.
