The GLLX range of bi-directional Turbine Flowmeters meets the demand of most liquid measurement applications. They basically comprise of three-component assembly, fitted inside a stainless steel body (locked with an internal clip), which has a magnetic pick-up. The meters are available in threaded, flanged, wafer designed for between flange installations) or Tri -Clamp (for Dairy, Brewery, Pharmaceutical and Food processing industries) connections. The Rotor & Shaft assembly, which is mounted between journal bearings inside the two Rotor Shaft Support Assemblies, is turned by the kinetic energy of the flowing fluid at an angular velocity, which in the linear range of the Flowmeter is proportional to the mean axial velocity of the fluid. The Rotor blades sweep out the full bore of the meter except for a small tip clearance space. As the blade tips pass the magnetic pick-up they initiate a pulse. Flow rate is determined by the frequency of the pulses and Total Flow is obtained by accumulating the pulses. GLLX Flow series “101 “ Totalizers sum the pulses automatically and display Flow Rate and Total Flow on the readout. The Totalizer can be mounted on the Turbine or placed remotely. |
