Turbine flowmeters are a precision measurement device that allow high accuracy with minimal cost and configuration.

GNW can offer a range of materials from low cost nylon and aluminium bodies to specialist options such as PVDF or stainless steel for more aggressive, higher temperature applications.
 
Remote flow rate indication, alarms, totalising and batch control functions are available enabling the flow meter to be located some considerable distance from the associated secondary instrument.

Advantages for turbine flow meters:High accuracy and good repeatabilityFast response time – typically a few millisecondsHigh pressure and temperature capabilitiesWide flow range options for both liquids and gasesGood flexibility with associated digital readout devices including flow control options for both PC and PL

Disadvantages for turbine flow metersMay over-read in pulsating flowsTurbine flow meters for liquid can require regular re-calibration due to bearing wearParticulates can cause line blockageHas rotating parts that could clog from larger suspended solids in the liquid stream.Most turbine meters need a straight section of pipe upstream from the flowmeter in order to reduce turbulent flow. This may make installation a challenge in small areas.

GNW can supply all sizes and types of flow meters. Please contact us with your requirements.
