Warning
For your safety, review the major warnings and cautions below before operating your equipment.
1. Use only fluids that are compatible with the 5. During turbine removal, liquid may spill. Follow
housing material and wetted components of your the liquid manufacturer’s safety precautions for
turbine. clean up of minor spills.
1.1 Product Description
Operating Principle:
Liquid flows through the turbine housing causing an internal rotor to spin. As the rotor spins, an electrical
signal is generated in the pickup coil. This signal is converted into engineering units (liters, cubic meters,
gallons etc.) on the local display where is applicable. Optional accessory modules can be used to export the
signal to other equipment.
Upon receipt, examine your meter for visible damage. The turbine is a precision measuring instrument and
should be handled carefully. Remove the protective plugs and caps for a thorough inspection. If any items
are damaged or missing, contact us.
Make sure the turbine flow model meets your specific needs. For your future reference, it might be useful
to record this information on nameplate in the manual in case it becomes unreadable on the turbine. Refer
to the nameplate for your customized product’s specification.

• Pipes must be fully filled with liquids. It is essential that pipes remain fully filled at all times,
otherwise flow rate indications may be affected and measurement errors may be caused.
• Avoid Air Bubbles. If air bubbles enter a measurement pipe, flow rate indications may be affected
and measurement errors may be caused.
• Avoid all pipe locations where the flow is pulsating, such as in the outlet side of piston or
diaphragm pumps.
• Avoid locations near equipment producing electrical interference such as electric motors,
transformers, variable frequency, etc.
• Install the meter with enough room for future access for maintenance purposes.
Warning: Precaution for direct sunshine and rain when the meter is installed outside.
Flow altering device such as elbows, valves and reducers can affect accuracy. See diagram below for typical
flow meter system installation.
Diagram 1. Typical Flow Meter System Installation
• Upstream: allow a minimum straight pipe length at least 10 times the internal diameter of the pipe.
For example, with the 50mm pipe, there should be 500mm of straight pipe immediately upstream.
Desired upstream straight pipe length is 1000mm.
• Downstream: allow a minimum straight pipe length at least 5 times the internal diameter of the
pipe. For example, with the 50mm pipe, there should be 250mm of straight pipe immediately
upstream. Desired upstream straight pipe length is 500mm.
4.3 Anti‐Cavitation
Cavitation can be caused by entrained air, and it can seriously damage the rotor on a turbine flow
meter. An amount higher than about 100 mg/l of entrained air or gas can produce error. In addition,
cavitation can be caused by too little backpressure on the flow meter. For turbine flow meters, you should
provide a backpressure (downstream pressure) of at least 1.25 times the vapor pressure, plus 2 times the
pressure drop through the flow meter. See formula 1.
Formula 1: Pb ≥ 1.25×Pv + 2× (Pin – Pout)
In formula 1: (Pb: Back pressure; Pv: Vapor Pressure; Pin: Inlet Pressure; Pout: Outlet Pressure)
Create backpressure by installing a control valve on the downstream side of the meter at the proper
distance detailed above.
Special Notice
♦ Foreign material in the liquid being measured can clog the meter’s rotor and adversely affect
accuracy. If this problem is anticipated or experienced, install screens to filter impurities from
incoming liquids.
♦ To ensure accurate measurement, drain all air from the system before use.
♦ When the meter contains removable coverplates. Leave the coverplate installed unless accessory
modules specify removal. Don’t remove the coverplates when the meter is powered, or electrical
shock and explosion hazard can be caused.

: All flowmeters are tested and calibrated prior to leaving the factory, and the unique
K‐factor is provided on the calibration certificate. Keep the calibration certificate well to
avoid the loss of K‐factor.
6.1 No display; Pulse Output
Customer should set the correct K‐factor into PLC or Flow totalizer in order to get the correct flow rate.
6.2 No display; 4‐20mA Output
Only perform the Zero Point Calibration where it’s necessary.
6.2.1 Zero Point Calibration
(1) Shut off the value where the flowmeter is installed, ensure there is no flow rate in pipe.
(2) Put high accuracy amperometer into the circuit loop as series connection.
(3) Adjust the potentiometer W502 to make sure the display on amperometer is 4mA.
6.2.2 Full Scale Calibration: it’s ONLY available for factory; return the flowmeter to factory for full scale
calibration where is applicable.
