Wafer Series
Wafer Type Turbine Flowmeters
Wafer connection turbine flowmeters for compact and space-saving pipeline installations.
Wafer Series
Principle of Operation: 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.
