The Type F3.00/F3.01 Paddle Wheel Flow Sensors are thecore items in the Digiflow® FlowX3 line. A square waveoutput signal is generated with frequency proportional torate of rotor rotation and flow velocity. This pulse outputis normally fed to a FlowX3 flow monitor/transmitter,blind transmitter, batch controller or adjustable flowswitch. It can also be fed to other brand instruments orPLC’s.

Three types of sensors are available, Hall Effect whichrequires a 5 to 24 VDC power supply, Coil Effect whichoperates with less power, 3 to 5 VDC and Push-pullsensors for safe connection to any NPN or PNP inputs.Coil is required with the battery powered flow monitor.Hall Effect signals may be transmitted up to 300 meters (984ft.) without the need for conditioning whereas Coil Effectsignals may be transmitted up to 16 m (52.5 ft.) withoutconditioning.

The Type ULF Ultra Low Flow Sensors are available intwo flow ranges. They contain a transducer and a fourblade paddle wheel rotor with a permanent magnet insideeach blade. A square wave output signal is generated withfrequency proportional to rate of rotor rotation and flowvelocity. This pulse output is normally fed to a FlowX3flow monitor/transmitter, blind transmitter, batchcontroller or adjustable flow switch. It can also be fed toother brand instruments or PLC’s.

Two types of sensors are available, Hall Effect whichrequires a 5 to 24 VDC power supply and Reed Effectwhich have a volt-free contact. Reed Effect is requiredwith the battery powered flow monitor. Hall Effect signalsmay be transmitted up to 300 meters (984 ft.) without theneed for conditioning whereas Reed Effect signals may betransmitted up to 16 m (52.5 ft.) without conditioning.

■ Installation Guidelines

• The sensor can be installed in any position, horizontally or vertically,although horizontal is preferred. A non horizontal installation maycause a greater error in the lower flow measurement range.

• Install the sensor with the arrow pointing in the flow direction.

• Maximize the distance between sensor and pump. Do not install thesensor immediately downstream of valves, elbows or any obstacles.15 cm (6") of straight pipe is suggested before and after the sensor.

■ Principle of OperationTwo magnetic coils in the body of the instrumentgenerate a magnetic field perpendicular to the flowdirection. The magnetic field B and the flowvelocity V induce a voltage E between the twoelectrodes. The voltage E is directly proportional tothe flow velocity V:

E = K x B x VK = instrument constantB = intensity of magnetic fieldV = flow velocity of fluid

The voltage across the electrodeterminals is transmitted to anintegral converter and convertedinto an output signal of 4 to 20mA or frequency output signal.

Working Pressure vs. Temperature

Developed Turbulent Flow

VelocityProfile

Digiflow® FlowX3 flow meters measure liquids only. No airbubbles should be present and the pipe must always be full.The sensors will not work properly in laminar or transitionalflow applications. Minimum Reynolds number required is4500.

For accurate flow measurement there must be a developedturbulent velocity profile at the sensor location. This requiresa straight run pipe with a minimum number of pipediameters distance upstream and downstream of the flowsensor. These distances depend on the type of piping element(i.e. valves, elbows, reducers etc.) causing the disturbance.

To ensure maximum accuracy, the following guidelines shouldbe observed when installing.

K Factors for Tee Fittings

Calibration (K) Factors & Flow RangesCalibration (K) factors are the numbers that must be programmed into the instruments. They convert the pulse output fromthe sensor (pulses per litre) to instrument readings and depend on the inside diameter of the pipe and specific fitting.Flow range is the minimum and maximum which may be measured within stated accuracy. This corresponds to the flowvelocity range of 0.15 to 8 m/s (0.5 to 25 ft./sec.).

Installation Weld-On Adaptor for Metal PipeFor Weld-On Adaptors on metal pipe, where the pipeinside diameter (ID1) is different from the valuesshown in the chart to the left, use the followingcorrection equation to calculate the new K factor (K1).

Calibration Factorsfor ElectromagneticFlow Transmitters

Reference Notes

1. Digiflow® FlowX3 flow meters measure liquids only. No air bubbles should be present and the pipe must always be full.

2. Check chemical resistance of the fluid to verify if wetted parts are acceptable.

3. Check that the service is within the pressure/temperature rating of installation fitting.

4. Viscosity range is 0.5 to 20 cSt (centistokes). Factor calibrationis required if outside this range, up to 40 cSt maximum. Maximum viscosity for Oval Gear flow sensor is 1,000 cP. Insertion electromagnetic flow transmitters have no viscositylimitations. See Units of Viscosity below.

5. Maximum percentage solids content for paddle wheel sensors is 10%, with particles not to exceed 0.5 mm in length or diameter (0% solids for ULF flow sensors). The insertion typeelectromagnetic flow transmitters can handle homogeneoussolids easily. Particle size is not an issue.

6. Paddle wheel flow meters cannot be used on services containing ferrous particles i.e., those which will be attracted to the magnetic rotor blades. The insertion type electromagnetic flow transmitters is only sensitive to metallicparticles if they are magnetic.

7. Electromagnetic flow transmitters require liquid to haveminimum conductivity at 20 microSiemens.

8. For accurate flow measurement there must be a developedturbulent velocity profile at the sensor location. This requires astraight run pipe with a minimum number of pipe diametersdistance upstream and downstream of the flow sensor. Thesedistances depend on the type of piping element (i.e. valves, elbows, reducers etc.) causing the disturbance. See page 36.

9. Hall Effect signals may be transmitted up to 300 meters(984 ft.) without the need for conditioning whereas Coil orReed Effect signals may be transmitted up to 16 m (52.5 ft.) without conditioning. Coil Effect sensors are normally used with the battery powered flow monitor.

Units of ViscosityAbsolute Viscosity (m): 1 poise (P) = 1 dyne = 1 gm
