2 OPERATION OF THE E-FLOWMETER
The CLA-VAL e-FlowMeter is a vortex shedding insertion flow meter designed to be factory assembled or retrofitted into a
CLA-VAL Automatic Control Valve to provide accurate flow measurement data without the need to install a separate meter.
Configured to be installed in the inlet tapping of a CLA-VAL Automatic Control Valve, the e-FlowMeter can be used in valves
directly downstream of a turbulent flow such as elbows, valves or reducers. The e-FlowMeter employs an innovative and
patented swivel mechanism allowing the meter to be inserted into tappings as small as 1/2".
The e-FlowMeter measures and transmits flow information as a 4-20 mA signal, digital pulse or pulse. It can be directly
connected to a SCADA system, various market loggers or products in the CLA-VAL e-Line range.

Karman Vortex Street
The e-FlowMeter is a vortex shedding insertion flow
meter, based on the phenomenon of generating an
alternating series of vortices called «Karman vortex
street».
When the fluid encounters an obstacle placed in the
axis of fluid flow, it divides and creates small vortices
alternating on either side downstream of the obstacle.
The frequency of vortex shedding, or generation of
vortices is directly proportional to fluid velocity. These
detached vortices generate variable pressure zones
that are detected in the form of short bursts of
pressure, using a measuring sensor placed
downstream of the obstacle.
Frequency measurement
The frequency of pressure surges or generation of vortices is
counted using a piezoelectric crystal encapsulated in the
sensor head. The latter is connected by 2 wires to the circuit
board for signal processing.
Measurement cylinder orientation
Upon insertion of e-FlowMeter in the valve, the measurement
cylinder is oriented parallel to the direction of flow. After
inserting the CLA-VAL tool which allows 90 degree rotation of
the measurement cylinder, it is locked in position by the
piezoelectric sensor insert. This unique 90 degree swivel
mechanism makes it possible to increase the length of the
measurement cylinder up to 40 mm allowing stabilization of
the fluid. This unique design allows it to be inserted into a
valve body tapping of ½".
Signal processing and output information
Existing Vortex flow meters operate in turbulent steady
flow defined by a Reynolds number exceeding 5’000.
This flow regime establishes stable and easily
detectable «Karman vortex street» using
unsophisticated electronics. Velocities are detected, in
general, above 0.5 m/s.
Through the innovative electronic card developed by
CLA-VAL, e-FlowMeter can measure flow from a
velocity of 0.1 m/s to obtain an accurate signal. This is
then converted to 4-20 mA, pulse or digital pulse to suit
the desired application.

3.2 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1- All installations, adjustments and maintenance should be carried out by a competent person.
2- Do not exceed the maximum ratings given in the specifications and printed on the label.
3- The electrical connections should be made as described in the user’s manual.
4- Before all maintenance operations, shut down the power supply.
: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE PRODUCT AS THIS WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY!
3.3 INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL
3.3.1 MATERIALS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION
3.3.1.1 Insertion Tool
The insertion tool is not provided with the e-FlowMeter.
The insertion tool is needed for the installation and removal of the e-FlowMeter in a CLA-VAL valve. It allows the rotation of
the measurement cylinder in the right position.
The insertion tool with a length of 165 mm is used for e-FlowMeter sizes 1,2a and 2b, the insertion tool with a length of
368 mm is used for e-FlowMeter sizes 3 and 4.
3.3.1.2 Power supply for pulse and digital pulse output
There are 2 ways to power the e-FlowMeter for the pulse output. The first is 5 VDC, the second is 6-24 VDC with stabilized
power supply, battery, turbine e-Power MP or IP. 3 mA minimum are required (see schematic chapter 3.3.4).
3.3.1.3 Power supply for 4-20 mA output
The voltage needed is 8 - 32 VDC, 20 mA minimum are required. Take care that the loop is closed to obtain a signal
4-20 mA.
3.3.1.4 Cabling
The e-FlowMeter has a 3 or 10 meter cable with 12 wires of 0.22 mm
2
supplied and attached as a factory standard. If
additional lengths of cable are needed, the connections should be made with 0.22 mm
2
or larger wire and may need to be
shielded in some environments where high electrical noise may exist. If using shielded cable, one end of the shielding
should be connected to an earth, such as piping system fitting, etc.

5 MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
5.1 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
The e-FlowMeter does not have any moving mechanical parts and so is not affected by fatigue wear from mechanical stress.
The system should be inspected routinely for leaks. It is recommended the equipment be turned off during inspection.
5.2 CLEANING DEBRIS FROM MEASUREMENT CYLINDER
If the reading from the e-FlowMeter begins to act in an unreliable manner, then the measurement cylinder should be
inspected and cleaned out to ensure proper operation.
Procedure:
1) Close the shut-off valves to stop the flow of water.
2) Disconnect all wiring.
3) Go through the removal steps (chapter 3.3.3 «Removal
instructions») to remove the e-FlowMeter from the
Control Valve, using the Insertion Tool.
4) With the sensor still removed from the threaded insert,
inspect the measurement cylinder; look specifically for
debris caught on the bluff body, as shown on the
figure.
5) Use pick or small screw driver and tweezers to remove
all of the debris from the measurement cylinder, bluff
body and anywhere else that is has accumulated.
6) Reinstall e-FlowMeter according to chapter 3.3.2
«Installation».
5.3 DEALING WITH SENSOR TIP DAMAGE
If the sensor tip is bent, broken or damaged in the course of the handling or installation, the e-FlowMeter will not function
properly. The sensor should be straight with respect to the sleeve. Since it is designed to sense micro-motion, if the sensor
is forced to enough to detect the movement with the naked eye, it may have been damage. In that case, contact CLA-VAL
Customer Service.

6.3 4-20 MA, PULSE AND PULSE DIGITAL OUPUT CONFIGURATION
The e-FlowMeter is factory calibrated. Calibration depends on the model and size of the valve (see chapter 4.3 « Flow
Parameters Factory Calibrated » for the corresponding values). But if necessary, it is possible to change the 4-20 mA
scaling or pulse weight and pulse width.
When starting e-FlowMeter Software, the window below appears:
Informations: Display information: Serial number, Firmware version, calibration units (Metric units in l/s or US units in
GPM), valve model and programming date.
Display unit: It is possible to change the display unit (l/s, GPM (Gallon Per Minute), GPH (Gallon Per Hour), Ml/d (Mega liter
per day), m3/h, m3/min et CFS (Cubic Feet per Second) then click "Write Parameters".
4-20 mA output: Allow the 4 mA and 20 mA values to change, then click "Write Parameters".
Offset and Gain: If there are some special applications, use Offset and/or Gain to obtain a better measurement.
Output values: When "Dynamic Reading" is clicked, it shows the frequency measured by the pieozoelectric sensor,
4-20 mA output, flow and volume. To put the volume to 0, click on "Reset Volume"
Pulse or digital pulse activation: If the "Pulse Mode on Serial Output" is ticked, the pulse output is activated, if it is
disabled, the digital pulse is activated, then click "Write Parameters".
