FLOW
The Series PDWS Insertion Paddlewheel Flowmeter is designed for pipe size
ranges from 1/2 to 8˝ with available materials of brass, stainless steel, PVC, and
polypropylene. The Series PDWS is intended to be used with the Series PWF, a
wide variety of custom tee, saddle, or welded ttings that come in bronze, PVC, and
stainless steel.
FEATURES/BENEFITS
• The bearings are made from ruby jewel to reduce the coefcient of friction and
maintain high accuracy
• PVC and polypropylene body material offers resistance against corrosive media
APPLICATIONS
• Industrial water & wastewater treatment
• Cooling water monitoring
• Industrial uid control
• Chemical proportioning
• Fluctuating uid conductivity applications
