Operating Principle
Fluid entering the meter passes through the inlet flow straightener which reduces its turbulent
flow pattern and improves the fluid's velocity profile. Fluid then passes through the turbine,
causing it to rotate at a speed proportional to fluid velocity. As each turbine blade passes
through the magnetic field at the base of the transducer, an AC voltage pulse is generated in
the pick-up coil. These pulses produce an output frequency proportional to the volumetric
flow through the meter.
The Model 1100 Turbine Flow Meter is designed to withstand the demands of the most
rigorous flow measurement applications. The meter features a rugged 316 stainless steel
housing and rotor support assembly, CD4MCU stainless steel rotor, and abrasion-resistant
tungsten carbide rotor shaft and journal bearings. The Model 1100 maintains measurement
accuracy and mechanical integrity in the corrosive and abrasive fluids commonly found in a
variety of industrial applications.
The Model 1100 is standard with a magnetic pick-up which produces a frequency output
that is proportional to its volumetric flow rate. When paired with the HB2800 Flow Monitor,
this compact system offers local indication of both flow rate and total flow. For further
flexibility, Hedland offers electronic options which convert the frequency output to an analog
signal for easy electronic integration with most instruments, PLCs, and computers.
