I. INTRODUCTION
Flo-tech turbine ow sensors measure the ow rate of hydraulic uid and compatible liquids. Built to withstand rigorous hydraulic applications, these ow sensors are available in anodized aluminum and zinc plated Stressproof® steel bodies. Port types vary by body material, but include a choice of SAE, BSPP, Code 61 and Code 62, 4-bolt anged options.

II. OPERATING PRINCIPLE
1 – Housing 2 – Turbine Rotor 3 – Rotor Supports 4 – Lock Nut 5 – Magnetic Pick-up (frequency output)
Turbine ow sensors measure the ow rate of hydraulic uid and compatible liquids. As uid ows through the sensor it turns the turbine rotor, and as the turbine blades pass the magnetic pick-up a frequency signal is generated. This frequency signal is proportional to the ow rate and can be transmitted to Flo­tech’s digital displays or converted to an analog output. Optional sensors allow measurement of pressure and temperature.

IV. INSTALLATION
CAUTION
This product should be installed and serviced by technically qualied personnel trained in maintaining industrial class ow instrumentation and processing equipment.
CAUTION
Read instructions thoroughly before installing the ow sensor. If you have any questions regarding product installation or maintenance, call your local supplier or the factory for more information.
WARNING
Do not use male pipe threads (NPT) into SAE straight thread ports. Using male pipe threads (NPTF) with a ow sensor possessing SAE straight thread O-ring ports will not create a proper seal and is potentially dangerous. Pipe threads inserted into an SAE straight thread port only allow the engagement of one or two threads. No amount of tightening or thread seal will stop the leaking or make the installation safe. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury or death and/or damage to the equipment.
Installation Recommendations
The in-line ow sensor is a simple device to install. However, the following measures are recommended for reliable, trouble-free operation:
DO - Provide at least 10 port diameters of upstream straight pipe with no obstructions to the ow sensor and at least 5 diameters of downstream pipe. The pipe should be of the same diameter as the nominal port size.
Example: An FSC-1000 has a one inch (25.4 mm) port. The unobstructed upstream length should be at least 10 inches (254 mm) and the downstream length should be at least 5 inches (127 mm).

Installation & Operating Instructions
DO - Choose a position for the ow sensor that will not be at the lowest level in the system. Placing the
ow sensor at a higher elevation in the system will avoid collection of debris, sediment and dirt in the ow sensor.
DO - Use a lter. All applications should be ltered to at least 40 micron.
DON’T - Locate a ow sensor directly in-line with the outlet of a pump, as pressure pulsations can react
with the turbine. Locate the sensor after another component, observing the 10 port diameter rule.
DON’T - Adjust the magnetic pick-up on the ow sensor. This is calibrated at the factory. Further adjustment will cause a decrease in performance or damage to the sensor.
DON’T - Exceed the working temperature range of –4 °F to +300 °F (–20 °C to +150 °C). Higher temperatures will damage the magnetic pick-up and lower temperatures will limit the rotation of the turbine.

IFC with 4-20 mA Output (F to I) – 5-pin Connector
The 4-20 mA output can drive auxiliary devices (resistive loads) such as displays, recorders and computers, provided that the voltage supplied by the power supply is adequate. Devices must be wired in series with the F to I converter and power supply. The voltage drop across the load(s) and the 6 Vdc minimum needed to drive the F to I converter determine the minimum voltage required from the power supply.
Determine the necessary voltage required to adequately drive the F to I converter and auxiliary device(s).
The F to I converter acts as a current controlling device. Thus, the current output remains the same even if the power supply voltage uctuates or the load resistance changes. The current varies only with respect to the ow rate from the turbine ow sensor, as long as the voltage drop across the F to I converter is at least 6 Vdc.
The load(s) in the circuit will generally have some electrical resistance, 100 Ohms for this example. The 4-20 mA loop current will produce a voltage drop across each load. The maximum voltage drop across a load(s) will exist when the loop current is 20 mA. The power supply must provide enough voltage for the load(s) plus the 6 Vdc minimum insertion loss of the F to I converter.

At 20 mA loop current, the voltage drop across the load(s)
Subtract 6 volts from the 24 volt source to determine that 18 volts is available to power the F to I converter. The 18 volts is within the specified 10 to 30 volt range and is sufficient to power the F to I converter.
At 20 mA loop current, the voltage drop across the load(s)
Subtract 20 volts from the 24 volt source to determine that 4 volts is available to power the F to I converter. The 4 volts is below the specified 10 to 30 volt range and is not adequate to power the F to I converter. If for example, the power supply voltage was 30 volts instead of 24 volts, the voltage available to power the F to I converter would be 10 volts and within the specified range.

Installation & Operating Instructions
V. OPERATION
General
WARNING
Do not exceed allowable pressure ratings. Pressure in excess of the maximum allowable ratings may cause the turbine body to fail. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury or death and/or damage to the equipment.
DO - Allow uids to warm to operating temperatures before critical measurements are taken.
DO - Maintain a ooded condition in the ow sensor at all times. Air and turbulence will result in erroneous
readings.
DON’T - Exceed the working temperature range of –4 °F to +300 °F (–20 °C to +150 °C). Higher temperatures will damage the magnetic pick-up and lower temperatures will limit the rotation of the turbine.
Flow Sensors with IFC Option
As soon as power is applied, the IFC will begin to output an analog value representative of the measured frequency from the turbine meter.
Refer to the wiring diagram that corresponds to the IFC being utilized. See pages 11 and 12.
VI. MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Always disconnect the primary power source before inspection or service. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury or death and/or damage to the equipment.
1. A schedule for maintenance checks should be determined based upon environmental conditions and frequency of use. Inspect at least once a year.
2. Perform visual, electrical and mechanical checks on all components.
a. Visually check for undue heating evidenced by discoloration of wires or other components,
damaged or worn parts, or excessive corrosion of the device.
b. Electrically check to make sure that all connections are clean and tight and that the device is
operating properly.
