Paddlewheel Flow Meters

The FTB300-Series of digital paddlewheel are an economical choice for low flow rate applications. They use Infra-red light beam technology. Available in 1/8 FNPT, 1/4 FNPT.

The FPB100 sensor is an industry standard and has the added functionality of various output options including flow switch, multi-functional pulse divider or 4 to 20 mA.

The FP-2540-Series offer the added strength and corrosion resistance of stainless steel for applications requiring low velocity measurement.

The FP-5600 and FP8500A-Series low flow sensors are high resolution, low power devices ideal for measuring flow in piping systems with extremely low velocities.

The FP-5200 also features OMEGA's patented "open-cell" rotor, for increased linearity at 1% over the full dynamic range of 1.6 to 20 fps, with negligible head loss.

Fluid through the FPB1400 causes the paddlewheel to spin. As the paddle magnets spin, electrical pulses are produced in which frequency is proportional to the flow rate.

The FP6500-Series features Ruby bearings and a non-drag pick-off that give these adjustable insertion flow sensors the widest flow range of any of the paddlewheel types.

FP1400-Series flowmeters have two programmable flow totalizers, low, high, or range flow and temperature alarm, two sets of optically isolated outputs, and flow pulse output.
