Wafer Type Turbine Flowmeters – W Series

Highly Precise and Reliable

The process fluid enters the wafer body and flows through a precision-machined turbine rotor. The kinetic energy of the fluid causes the turbine to rotate. The rotational speed of the turbine is directly proportional to the volumetric flow rate. A magnetic pickup / Hall-effect sensor detects the turbine blades passing through the magnetic field. Each blade passage generates a pulse signal. The electronics convert the pulses into Instantaneous flow rate and Totalized flow.
