• PVC 2536 version DN15 to DN100 (½ to 4 in.) for
concentrated Sodium Hypochlorite 12.5% applications
• High resolution and noise immunity
Simple to install with time-honored reliable
performance, Signet 2536 Rotor-X Paddlewheel Flow
Sensors are highly repeatable, rugged sensors that
o er exceptional value with little or no maintenance.
The Model 2536 has a process-ready open collector
signal with a wide dynamic fl ow range of 0.1 to 6 m/s
(0.3 to 20 ft/s). The sensor measures liquid fl ow rates in
full pipes and can be used in low pressure systems.
The Signet 2536 sensors are o ered in a variety of
materials for a wide range of pipe sizes and insertion
confi gurations. The many material choices including
PP and PVDF make this model highly versatile and
chemically compatible to many liquid process solutions.
Sensors can be installed in DN15 to DN900 (½ to 36 in.)
pipes (except the 2536 PVC versions, which can be
installed in DN15 to DN100 (½ to 4 in.) pipes), using
Signet’s comprehensive line of custom fi ttings. These
custom fi ttings, which include tees, saddles, and
weldolets, seat the sensor to the proper insertion depth
into the process fl ow. The sensors are also o ered in
confi gurations for wet-tap installation requirements.
• Test certifi cate included for -X0, -X1
