Series 228PV Tee Type PVC Flow Sensors 1-1/2" to 4" OVERVIEW Used in conjunction with any Badger Meter flow monitor or transmitter, Badger Meter non-magnetic flow sensors provide an accurate reading of the rate of liquid flow and total accumulated flow. The sensor models offered cover applications for a wide range of pipe sizes and pressure/temperature specifications. The flow sensors generate a frequency proportional to flow rate. An internal preamplifier allows the pulse signal to travel up to 2000 feet without further amplification. Power to operate the sensor is provided by the flow monitor. The impeller bearing assembly, shaft and O-rings are replaceable in the field. Badger Meter flow sensors feature a closed, six-bladed impeller design, using a proprietary, non-magnetic sensing technology. The forward-swept impeller shape provides higher, more constant torque than four-bladed impeller designs, and is less prone to fouling 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. As the liquid flow turns the impeller, a low impedance signal is transmitted with a frequency proportional to the flow rate. Sensors of similar type are interchangeable, so there is no need for recalibration after servicing or replacement. Series 228PV (Formerly 220P) These models feature a modified PVC tee with solvent weld socket end connections, and a removable, PPS or PVDF sensor insert. Sizes include 1-1/2, 2, 3, and 4 inches. Electronic Types Badger Meter provides several basic sensor configurations using the same impeller element allowing for a wide range of applications and pipe sizes. Sensors are normally supplied with 20 feet of 2-conductor 20 AWG shielded UL type PTLC 105° C cable. All Series 200 sensor electrical components are self-contained. Pressure/temperature ratings for the models are contained in the specifications section of this manual. These models can be further described as follows. Standard Sensor Designed for indoor or protected area applications such as HVAC, pump control, and industrial process monitoring where the flow rates are between 0.5…30 feet/second and temperatures are below 140° F. Standard sensors are supplied with 20 feet of 2-conductor 20 AWG shielded UL type PTLC 105° C cable. IR Sensor Designed for below grade applications such as irrigation, municipal, and groundwater monitoring where the flow rates are between 0.5-30 feet/second and temperatures are below 140°F. IR sensors are supplied with two single conductor, 18 AWG solid copper wire leads 48 inches in length with UL Style 116666 direct burial insulation. CSA Sensor Designed for indoor or protected area applications where intrinsic safety is required and the flow rates are between 0.5-30 feet/second and temperatures are below 140° F. CSA sensors are supplied with 20 feet of 2-conductor 20 AWG shielded UL type PTLC 105° C cable. These sensors must be used with an approved safety barrier.
