FCI ensures the field performance of its highly accurate mass flow meter product line by offering VORTAB Flow Conditioners. Where process conditions make flow measurement difficult, VORTAB Flow Conditioners eliminate flow distortions that degrade instrument performance. The result is accurate, repeatable measurement with minimal pressure loss.

VIP Flow Conditioner
The VIP (Vortab Insertion Panel) flow conditioner completely neutralizes flow profile irregularities caused by elbows, valves, blowers, compressors, and other flow disturbances that commonly occur in piping and duct runs and cause flow meter inaccuracies. The VIP provides a swirl-free, symmetric and repeatable flow profile that flow meters require for accurate measurement.
Model VIP flow conditioners marry the scientifically proven superior performance of Vortab tab-type flow conditioning technology with the installation ease and cost savings of an insertion panel design.
VIP is particularly effective with wide-turndown and/or low flow sensitive flow meter technologies (e.g. thermal dispersion) to provide a highly repeatable flow profile during laminar, transitional and turbulent flow conditions.
VIP Flow Conditioner
The VORTAB® VMR Meter Run flow conditioner provides a low pressure loss solution to flow profile irregularities caused by elbows, valves, blowers, compressors and other disruptions that commonly occur in piping and duct runs.
The VSR Meter Run configuration is available for those applications that require lengths shorter than the VMR lengths.
VIS Flow Conditioner
The VORTAB® VIS Insertion Sleeve flow conditioner provides a low pressure loss solution to flow profile irregularities caused by elbows, valves, blowers, compressors and other disruptions that commonly occur in piping and duct runs.
VFK Flow Conditioner
The VORTAB® VFK Field Tab Kit flow conditioner provides a low pressure loss solution to flow profile irregularities caused by elbows, valves, blowers, compressors and other disruptions that commonly occur in piping and duct runs.
VEL Flow Conditioner
The VORTAB VEL 90° Elbow flow conditioner provides a low pressure loss solution to flow profile irregularities caused by elbows and other disruptions that commonly occur upstream of that elbow in piping and duct runs. Only 3 pipe diameters of straight run between the Vorel and flow meter is required.
The VEL configuration offers a complete, simple elbow replacement for new and existing piping systems.
