Flow Sensors
Series 220PVCS Insertion Style Flow Sensors
DESCRIPTION
The Data Industrial® Series 200 flow sensors from Badger Meter®
feature a six-bladed impeller design with a proprietary nonmagnetic sensing mechanism. The forward swept impeller shape
provides higher, more consistent torque and is less prone to be
fouled by waterborne debris. The forward curved shape coupled
with the absence of magnetic drag provides improved operation
and repeatability at lower flow rates. This is especially true where
the impeller is exposed to metallic or rust particles found in steel or
iron pipes. As the liquid flow turns the impeller, a low impedance
square wave signal is transmitted with a frequency proportional to
the flow rate. The signal can travel up to 2000 ft between the flow
sensor and the display unit without the need for amplification. All
sensors except irrigation versions are supplied with 20 ft of Belden
type 9320 two-conductor shielded cable.
MODEL 220PVCS
The 220PVCS flow sensor is an insertion style flow sensor
constructed of non-metallic materials for all wetted parts. These
sensors are designed for service in corrosive liquids. The metallic
trim, in non-wetted areas, is 316 stainless steel. The sensor mounts
in a 2 in. NPT thread and may be attached to the pipe with a saddle
or other types of mounting hardware.
