Paddle Wheel Flow Sensor

Product Details:

Here are 5 key bullet points describing a Paddle Wheel Flow Sensor (generic description applicable to most industrial-grade models):

• Flow Measurement Principle: Uses a freely rotating paddle wheel inserted into the flow stream; the rotation speed is proportional to the flow rate, offering a reliable method for measuring liquid flow.

• Pulse Output: Typically generates a frequency signal (pulse output), which can be connected to flow indicators, PLCs, or data loggers for real-time monitoring and totalization.

• Material Compatibility: Constructed with chemical-resistant materials like PVC, PP, or stainless steel, making it suitable for a wide range of liquids, including water, chemicals, and corrosive fluids.

• Wide Flow Range: Capable of accurately measuring both low and high flow rates, commonly used in pipe sizes ranging from ½” to 24” or more, depending on the sensor model.

• Applications: Ideal for water treatment plants, chemical dosing systems, irrigation networks, and industrial process automation where accurate and cost-effective flow measurement is required.
