Turbine Flowmeters
Description
Flow Technologys FT Series turbine flowmeters utilize a proven flow measurement technology to provide exceptionally reliable digital outputs. Because of their versatility, these flowmeters are the solution for a wide variety of liquid and gas flow sensing applications. FT Series turbine flowmeters, which range in size from 3/8 inch to 24 inches, offer a high turn-down capability, repeatability of 0.05% (liquid) and 0.1% (gas) of reading, and excellent speed of response. The precision, axial-mounted rotor design of the standard turbine flowmeter allows it to operate effectively in flow rates from 0.03 to 50,000 GPM to (0.11 to 189,000 LPM) in liquid and 0.09 to 15,000 ACFM (2.55 to 424,800 ALPM) in gas, and pressures as high as 4,000 BAR (58,000 psi) for certain applications. Linearity is rated at 0.5% of reading over the normal 10:1 turn-down range for liquid (premium linearity of 0.25% offered) and 1.0% of full scale over the normal range for gas. All turbine flowmeters can achieve 0.1% linearity with linearizing electronics. A choice of construction materials can be specified for the turbine flowmeters housing, rotor, bearings and shaft, including standard stainless steel, and exotic materials for specialized applications.

Turbine Flowmeters
Features
High turndown capability, up to 100:1 Excellent speed of response Repeatability of 0.05% (liquid) and 0.1% (gas)
of reading
Applications
Flow Technology offers a wide range of turbine flowmeters and custom-engineered designs for liquid and gas applications to meet the demands of the Aerospace, Industrial and Automotive users. Examples of applications include fuel consumption, hydraulics, coolant, gas injection, batching, ultra-pure water and feedback of process variables in control systems.
Linearity of 0.1% with linearizing electronics Flow rates from 0.03 to 50,000 GPM (0.11 to 189,000
LPM) in liquid, 0.09 to 15,000 ACFM (2.55 to 424,800 ALPM) in gas
Operation
A volumetric device that measures the flow of both liquid and gases, the turbine flowmeters design is based on a freelysuspended turbine rotor which is rotated by the flow of fluid (liquid or gas) through the meter body.

Pickoff
Operation (contd)
An external pickoff senses the passing of each rotor blade, generating a frequency output. The frequency is directly proportional to the velocity of the fluid, and since the flow passage is fixed, the turbines rotational speed is a true representation of the volumetric rate of fluid flowing through the flowmeter. Either a Magnetic or Modulated Carrier (RF) pickoff with a range extending amplifier can be used to sense the rotation of the turbine rotor and provide an electrical output that is proportional to the process flow rate. A benefit of the RF pickoff is that it extends the low flow range of the meter by eliminating magnetic drag on the rotor. The frequency output is processed by complementary electronics, ranging from basic amplifiers, indicators and totalizers, to more complex flow computers which compensate for all measurable process parameters and provide ultimate volumetric or mass flow measurement accuracy.
