Flow Meter
The rotational velocity of the rotary wheel varies linearly with the average velocity of the fluid flowing through the flow meter. A square wave pulse is generated by a Hall Effect from magnets embedded in the vanes of the rotor wheel. Depending on the output version of the MW-100, the pulse signal is relayed directly, converted to a 0-5 VDC (voltage) output. The voltage model is span-adjustable over the flow range of the unit.
Standard Specifications
Connection Size | Measuring range |
---|---|
1/4” FNPT or Rc | 0.6 to 5 L/min |
3/8” FNPT or Rc | 1.0 to 20 L/min |
Note:
All flow meters must be fitted with a Strainer which can withstand 1.5 MPa pressure with SS 316 mesh incorporated.
