thread connection turbine flow meter is a type of flow meter designed to measure the flow rate of liquids (typically clean, low-viscosity fluids) in various industrial applications.
Here’s an overview of its features and how it typically operates:
1. Principle of Operation:
Turbine Mechanism: The flow meter utilizes a turbine rotor that spins as the fluid flows through the meter.
Magnetic Pickup: Attached to the turbine rotor is a magnetic pickup sensor that generates electrical pulses as the rotor spins.
Flow Rate Calculation: The frequency of these pulses is directly proportional to the flow rate of the fluid passing through the meter.
This relationship allows for precise measurement of flow rates.
2. Design and Construction:
Threaded Connection: Typically, these meters feature threaded connections (such as NPT or BSP threads) for easy installation into the pipeline system.
Inline Design: Designed to be installed directly in-line with the piping system to measure flow rates accurately.
