Product catalog summary
Overview
The Data Industrial Series 228 flow sensors by Badger Meter feature a six-bladed impeller with a non-magnetic sensing mechanism. This design offers higher torque and is less susceptible to debris interference compared to four-bladed designs. The impeller generates a low impedance square wave signal proportional to the flow rate, which can be transmitted up to 2,000 feet without amplification. Sensors come with a 20-foot cable, except for irrigation versions.
Series 228 Tee Sensors
The sensors are available in different models based on material and mounting: Model 228BR (brass/bronze in a bronze tee), Model 228SS (stainless steel in a stainless steel tee), and Model 228CB (brass/bronze in a cast iron tee). The ordering matrix provides options for style, material, size, electronics housing, electronics, O-ring, shaft, impeller, and bearing.

Tee Type 228 Flow Sensor Metallic Tee-1

Series 228 Metallic Tee and Small Pipe Tee Type Flow Sensors OVERVIEW The Data Industrial Series 228 flow sensors from Badger Meter feature a six bladed impeller design with a proprietary non-magnetic sensing mechanism. The forward swept impeller shape provides higher, more consistent torque than four bladed impeller designs and is less prone to be fouled by water borne debris. The forward curved shape coupled with the absence of magnetic drag provides improved operation and repeatability even at lower flow rates. This is especially true where the impeller is exposed to metallic or rust particles found in steel or iron pipes. As the liquid flow turns the impeller, a low impedance square wave signal is transmitted with a frequency proportional to the flow rate. The signal can travel up to 2,000 feet between the flow sensor and the display unit without the need for amplification. All sensors except irrigation versions are supplied with 20 feet of 2-conductor 20 AWG shielded UL type PTLC 105°C cable. SERIES 228 TEE SENSORS The tee mounted flow sensors consist of a standard 220BR or 220SS mounted in a 2 inch or 2.5 inch tee. Model 228BR Model 228SS Model 228CB brass/bronze sensor mounted in a bronze tee stainless steel sensor mounted in a stainless steel tee brass/bronze sensor mounted in a cast iron tee.
