Kobold SFL Low Volume Turbine Wheel Flowmeter

Kobold SFL Low Volume Turbine Wheel Flowmeter is particularly suitable for service with liquids free from solids. The liquids must be transmissive for infrared light (for example: water, oil, chemicals). The plastic or stainless steel material combination allows service with aggressive media.

Kobold SFL Low Volume Turbine Wheel Flowmeter

 

Kobold SFL Features

• Low-viscosity liquids (solids < 20 μm)
• Ideal system for filling plants (food and drinks industry)
• Volume batching, for example chemicals (with an external batching device)
• Aggressive media

Method of Operation

The forced medium causes the turbine wheel to rotate. Housing geometry, light-weight turbine wheel and radial flowing liquid ensure that the rotor floats.

A suspended rotor ensures a long service life. The motion of the turbine wheel is sensed in a non-contacting manner with infrared diodes and converted to impulses.

This output signal is linear and proportional to the volumetric flow. The flow meter may be installed in any position.
