Seametrics® Paddlewheel Insertion Flow Sensor, Brass, 3" - 12", IP110B

Description

The Seametrics IP110B -Series flow sensors are brass, adjustable depth insertion paddlewheels that fit 3” to 12” pipe. Adapters mate with standard 1-1/2” FNPT threaded fittings such as saddles and weldolets. High-quality jewel bearings and nickelbound tungsten carbide shafts are used for extreme low friction and long life. Ruby bearings and a non-drag Hall-effect sensor give these meters the widest flow range of any paddlewheel on the market. A sensor detects the passage of miniature magnets in the six rotor blades. The resulting square-wave signal can be sent for hundreds of feet over unshielded cable without a transmitter and connected directly to many PLC’s and other controls without any additional electronics. A modular system of electronics can be installed directly on the flow sensor or mounted remotely. The FT430 (externally powered with pulse), FT440 (loop powered), and FT450 (battery powered) all provide digital rate and total displays, as well as a programmable pulse; the FT440 also provides a 4-20 mA analog output.
