Accurate flow measurement for
billing and water management.
Flow computer displays flow
and total for all diameters and units.
Easily installed and adapted
to all pipe diameters.
Debris shedding design with
turbo-prop.
Electronic sensor pickup.
Description The IF200 Insertion Flow
Meter is a reliable and accurate instrument for monitoring instantaneous
and total flows in full pipes of 2" to 30" diameters. The debris
shedding turbo prop design makes the IF200 ideal for irrigation water,
well water, process water or other non-clean applications. The battery
powered computer displays current flow rate and total flow in any engineering
units and for all pipe diameters.
Installation is simple and
the Insertion Flow Meter can easily be moved from site to site.
Flow Computer
The Flow Computer is easily
calibrated for all pipe diameters and any flow units including gpm, cfs,
m3/sec and acre feet. Units and diameters can be easily changed in
the field. The Flow Computer runs for at least two years on its internal
batteries.
The engineering units for
instantaneous and total flows and scaling for pipe diameter are entered
in with a simple two-button system using the lookup table in the owner's
manual. Setup takes less than 5 minutes.
Turbo-Prop
The Turbo-Prop is a positive
displacement sensor which is highly accurate over a wide range of flow
rates. The propeller rotates freely on its brass bearting shaft. The electronic
pickup sensor means that there are no mechanical gear systems or cables
to cause drag or failure.
The IF200 is much more accurate
than paddle wheel type sensors which are not linear at low and high water
velocities.
Debris-Shedding Design
The unique debris-shedding bar
guides debris away from the Turbo-Prop. In addition, the Turbo-Prop trails
the shedding bar so debris that comes off the shedding bar slips past the
Turbo-Prop.
