Description
The AW-Lake HM F Series of turbine flow meters can handle low viscosity fluids flowing under extremely high pressure, such as hydraulic and fuel systems and offshore chemical injection systems. Best for use with hydraulic oil, fuel and other light oils when ANSI or tri-clamp flanges are required.
The Turbine wheel's low moment of inertia allows a fast acceleration from standstill up to full number of revolutions within 5 to 50 msec. For that reason, dynamic measurements can be made. The resolution can amount to as much as 35,000 pulses per liter.
The spacing of the turbine wheel and bearing mount is wide enough to protect against particles in fluid jamming the turbine wheel. And the Twist of flow in this area has a self-cleaning effect for the bearing.
