The DV04 Gear Wheel Flow Meter is designed for measuring viscous liquids with a flow range of 0.008 to 700 liters per minute and a viscosity range of 20 to 100,000 cSt. It features threaded connections from 1/8,Äù to 1,Äù and an SAE flange option of 38 mm. The flow meter is constructed from materials including cast iron, stainless steel, FKM, EPDM, and PTFE, ensuring durability in various applications. It can withstand a maximum pressure of 400 bar and a maximum temperature of 220 ¬8C. The output signal is provided in pulses, making it suitable for integration with various electronic systems. This flow meter is particularly effective for applications requiring high precision, such as dosing oils and chemicals, measuring consumption rates, and controlling filling processes.
The measuring mechanism in the DV04 flow meter consists of a pair of gearwheels that are driven by the fluid stream, much like a gearwheel pump. The measuring mechanism is supported by sleeve bearings or ball bearings. Two antimagnetic sensors, with a relative phase offset of 90° and hermetically isolated from the measuring chamber, sense the movement of the gear wheels. This two-channel sensing system used with appropriate electronics permits a higher measurement resolution as well as detection of flow direction. All flow meters are optionally available in a explosionproof design with a separate switching amplifier. The DV04 gearwheel flow meter features very low resistance to flow and particularly low sound pressure levels.
Their outstanding measuring accuracy and high resolution make these devices particularly suitable for use in test stands when measuring small and very small flow volumes. Other areas of application:
