VA40 - A versatile flowmeter

The VA40 is a versatile flowmeter that measures the flow of liquids and gases with precision and ease. This all-purpose flowmeter is ideal for basic applications and operates without an auxiliary power supply, making it simple and cost-effective. The flowmeter has a measuring cone protected by a metal sleeve and viewing glass, making it easy to directly read the flow and observe the medium.

The VA40 offers numerous features that make it a top choice for various industries and applications. With its full-scale value for liquids ranging from 0.4 to 10,000 l/h and gases ranging from 7 to 310,000 l/h, the flowmeter can be used in a wide range of applications, including air and cooling water supply, gas measurement for industrial furnaces and thermal processes, and measurement of protective gases.

In addition, the VA40 is equipped with optional MIN/MAX flow switches (SIL2 compliant) or 4…20mA for recording and control, giving users even more flexibility in terms of flow measurement. With its turndown ratio of 10:1, the flowmeter provides accurate readings even at low flow rates, and its uncertainty of ±1.0% (acc. to VDI/VDE 3513, sheet 2) makes it ideal for applications where precise measurements are required.

The VA40 is also designed to be used in hazardous areas, making it suitable for various industries such as the conventional and nuclear power industry, where water monitoring in auxiliary circuits is crucial. The flowmeter is also available as a food and pharmaceutical variant (with FDA compliant materials), making it suitable for use in the pharmaceutical industry, food and beverage industry, and for demineralized and ultrapure water, alcohol, solvents, insulin, etc.

Whether you're working in machinery and apparatus (OEM industry), air and cooling water supply, or the pharmaceutical industry, the VA40 is an excellent flowmeter that will meet your needs. With its simple, low-cost measuring principle and high accuracy, it is an ideal solution for direct reading of the flow and observation of the medium.
