The GPI A1 Turbine Flow Meter + Truflo Paddle Wheel Meter The GPI A1 flow meter is a member product

of the turbine or paddle wheel flow meters. The paddle wheel flow meters or turbine flow meters are mechanical meters used to measure the flow of gas, liquid or fluid; the equipment utilizes a freel spinning turbine, which is placed in a fluid stream. The flowing gas or fluid permits the turbine to rotate on its a!is; the flow rate is then calculated based on the proportion of the rate of spin to the speed of the flow. "or this reason, large industries as well as commercial companies commonl ma#e use of the different t pes of turbine flow meters for their industrial applications. $ne of the reasons wh turbine or paddle wheel flow meters such as Truflo are widel used is because it has the unique capabilit to calculate prett high flow rates at %er low pressure drops, e%en though for most cases it&s accurac cannot be compared to other flow meters; another good reason is the fact that it&s measuring element does not hinder the path of flow, as it&s e!perienced with some other flow meters. The turbine or Truflo paddle wheel flow meter&s ma'or use is in application of chemical fluids, water or e%en lesser %iscosit liquids. A ma'or feature of the Truflo paddle wheel or turbine flow meter is the installation of what is termed as the strainers, a de%ice installed in front of the meter so as to protect the measuring element from debris, which for most times could enter the flow s stem and alter the applications. GPI A1 turbine flow meter and its application: This is a commerciall used electronic digital turbine flow meter used to measure high rated industrial fluids. It is %er durable, compact in design and features the combination of a compact ()* and a meter. It is a one s stem flow meter which can e%en calculate and measure fluid flow, e%en if it is placed in a remote area. The GPI A1 flow meter has an alread installed turbine placed within its containment; the turbine can also be replaced with a Truflo paddle wheel flow sensor; the turbine of the paddle wheel is consistentl powered b an internal batter controlled computer. The GPI A1 flow meter is alwa s a preferred choice due to the fact that its compact design enables for both %ertical and horizontal installations in areas where other flow meters do not permit. The entire GPI A1 turbine flow meter is powered using the lithium batteries, so that it would ha%e a long lifespan. The GPI A1 has a unique feature, where depending on the liquid or fluid to be applied, one can either ma#e use of n lon or aluminium for the outer bod . + lon is used for GPI A1 when water or other non,%olatile fluids are used; aluminium on the other hand is utilized when fluids li#e fuel or other petroleum products are utilized. It is safe equipment and can be utilized in dangerous locations. Features of the GPI A1 turbine flow meter: There are - totals of which 1 is resettable while the other is cumulati%e It utilizes factor calibrations measured in gallons and litters It has - user calibrations and flow rate It is manufactured b GPI "low ranges is usuall between ../ to /.. GP0, which is equi%alent to 1 to 1... (P0

It can install in both the horizontal and the %ertical positions It has an operating temperature of about ,1.2 to 3-4.2" 5,1.2 to 31-12)6 It is powered b lithium batteries for long life
