FTB-1300 Series Turbine Flow Meter
General Description:
The FTB-1300 series of turbine flow meters is designed with a wear resistant rotor assembly to provide trouble free operation and a long service life. Fluid moving through the flow meter causes the rotor to turn at a speed proportional to the flow rate, and as the rotor blades cut through the magnetic field of the pickup, an electronic pulse is generated.
The pulse train is used to represent the actual flow or total amount of fluid passing through the flow meter. The number of electronic pulses generated per unit volume is known as a K-factor. The value is constant over each flow meter's operating range, and is unique to each meter.

Operating Limitations of the FTB-1300 Series Turbine Flow Meters:
1)Pressure - 5,000 PSI max
WARNING: Pressure in excess of allowable rating may cause the housing to burst and cause serious personal injury.
2)Corrosion - The internal parts of the meter are constructed of stainless steel (316L & 1.4122) and carbide with nickel binder. Be sure that the operating fluid is compatible with these materials. Incompatible fluids will deteriorate internal parts, and cause the meter to read inaccurately.
3)Pulsation - Severe pulsation will affect accuracy, and shorten the life of your meter.
4)Vibration & Shock - Severe mechanical vibration may decrease service life of the meter.
5)Filtration - A strainer should be installed upstream of the meter if small particles are present (see Table 1 for filtration requirements)
