Turbine Flowmeter - Stainless Steel, High Accuracy With Fast Response Time | Remote Flow Indication, Alarms, Totalising And Batch Control Functions

Our Turbine Flowmeters are a precision measurement device that allow high accuracy with minimal cost and configuration.
Gauges North West can offer a range of materials from low cost nylon and aluminium bodies to specialist options such as PVDF or stainless steel for more aggressive, higher temperature applications.
Remote flow rate indication, alarms, totalising and batch control functions are available enabling the flow meter to be located some considerable distance from the associated secondary instrument.

Features for turbine flow meters :
High accuracy and good repeatability
Fast response time a typically a few milliseconds
High pressure and temperature capabilities
Wide flow range options for both liquids and gases
Good flexibility with associated digital readout devices including flow control options for both PC and PL

Disadvantages for turbine flow meters :
Require upstream straightener and filter for best results
May over-read in pulsating flows
Turbine flow meters for liquid can require regular re-calibration due to bearing wear
Particulates can cause line blockage
Has rotating parts that could clog from larger suspended solids in the liquid stream.
Most turbine meters need a straight section of pipe upstream from the flowmeter in order to reduce turbulent flow. This may make installation a challenge in small areas.
Typical Application for turbine flow meters
Pilot plants
Research and development facilities
Cooling water monitoring
