Plant engineers who can’t find room for the straight pipe run required by liquid flowmeters in their municipal water treatment plant retrofit projects will find the VORTAB Elbow flow conditioner eliminates the problem by removing swirl and asymmetric velocity profiles caused by pumps, valves and other equipment placed too close to the meter. It nearly eliminates flowmeter upstream piping requirements by conditioning the flow stream into a flow regime, mimicking adequate straight run. The 90-degree angle tab-type unit eliminates the pipe cost and technician labor for the five to 10 upstream and three to five downstream pipe diameters required by many types of flowmeters. 800-854-9959; www.vortab.com
