IP800 Series Paddlewheel Flow Meters

The IP800-Series are impeller (or “paddlewheel”) insertion meters designed for use with a wide variety of clean liquids in pipe sizes 1/2” to 8”. Sensors are available in brass, 316 stainless steel, PVC, and polypropylene. Bodies are machined from a solid rod for maximum precision. High quality jewel bearings and nickel-bound tungsten carbide shafts are used for extreme low friction and long life.

The rotation of the rotor is detected by a non-drag Hall-effect sensor. Output is a current-sinking pulse, which can be sent long distances (up to 2,000 feet) without a transmitter. This signal can be connected directly to PLC’s, counters, and computer cards, as well as a variety of Seametrics controls and displays.

Features:

  • Low-friction, long-life jewel bearings
  • One moving part
  • Fully field-repairable
  • Choice of materials for compatibility with a variety of chemicals
  • Fits 1/2” to 8” pipe
  • Fixed depth in fitting ensures proper placement in pipe
  • Data logger (optional)
  • Sensus smart output (optional with display)

The IP800-Series insertion meters require special fittings that ensure correct depth placement in the pipe. Fittings come in a variety of materials for compatibility with specific applications. Tee fittings are individually wet-calibrated at the factory and marked with the K-factor (pulses per gallon). Saddle fittings must be field-installed on the pipe and do not come wet-calibrated. Contact Your Supplier calibrated. K-factors for saddles are based on factory-testing.

Applications:

  • Industrial water/wastewater treatment
  • Cooling water monitoring
  • Industrial fluid control
  • Chemical proportioning
