The IP800-Series are impeller (or “paddlewheel”) insertion meters
designed for use with a wide variety of liquids in pipe sizes 1/2” to 8”.
Sensors are available in brass, 316 stainless steel, PVC, and polypropylene.
Bodies are machined from a solid rod for maximum precision. Highquality jewel bearings and nickel-bound tungsten carbide shafts are
used for extreme low friction and long life. Low-ow performance is
good, although other Seametrics ow meters are recommended where
extremely low ows are being measured.
The rotation of the rotor is detected by a non-drag Hall-eect sensor.
Output is a current-sinking pulse, which can be sent long distances (up
to 2,000 feet) without a transmitter. This signal can be connected directly
to PLC’s, counters, and computer cards, as well as a variety of Seametrics
controls and displays.
Seametrics IP meters are ideal for chemical proportioning applications.
If no display is required, a simple divider such as the PD10 provides
adjustable pump pacing. For rate and total display, a modular system
of electronics can be installed directly on the ow sensor or mounted
remotely. The FT430 (externally powered with pulse), FT440 (loop
powered), and FT450 (battery powered) all provide digital rate and total
displays, as well as a programmable pulse; the FT440 also provides a 4-20
mA analog output. The AO55 blind analog transmitter can be used to
convert to a 4-20 mA output. Electronic modules can be wall- or metermounted. (Note: PD10 available only as wall mounted unit.) IP meters are
also compatible with the DL76 data logger and FT520 batch processor.
The IP800-Series require special ttings that ensure correct depth
placement in the pipe. Fittings come in a variety of materials for
compatibility with specic applications. Tee ttings are individually wet-
calibrated at the factory and marked with the K-factor (pulses per gallon).
Saddle ttings must be eld-installed on the pipe and do not come wet-
calibrated. K-factors for saddles are based on factory-testing.
