Paddlewheel Flow Meters offer continuous liquid monitoring.
March 22, 2013 -
Featuring stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance, IC-LPM Series provides flow rate monitoring over range of 0.5–1200 lpm with standard nominal sizes up to 50 mm. Inline units have freely supported paddlewheel impeller mounted on bearing and pin assembly. As fluid passes through meter body, it causes paddlewheel to rotate at speed that is proportional to stream flow velocity over 10:1 linear flow range. Rotational speed is measured by magnetic pick-up housed in probe assembly.

Introducing the New IC-LPM Series of Liquid Paddlewheel Flow Meters
icenta Controls in the UK is introducing a new range of industrial inline paddlewheel flow meters that offers considerable benefits for continuous liquid flow monitoring
The IC-LPM series of paddlewheel meters provides accurate flow rate monitoring over the range of 0.5 to 1200 l/min with standard nominal sizes up to 50 mm. A simple yet robust stainless steel construction offers excellent corrosion resistance and a versatile design with custom options can be easily adapted to meet varying flow monitoring requirements: additional meter sizes and flow ranges, threaded or flanged connections, a selection of outputs, flow instruments and displays, a choice of 3 temperature ratings (up to 120°C, 230°C or 350°C) and pressures up to 100 bar or greater by request.
The IC-LPM paddlewheel meter features a freely supported paddlewheel impeller mounted on a bearing and pin assembly. As the fluid passes through the meter body it causes the paddlewheel to rotate at a speed that is proportional, within a small level of uncertainty, to the stream flow velocity over a 10:1 linear flow range. The rotational speed is measured by a magnetic pick-up housed in the probe assembly.
IC-LPM meters are an ideal replacement for many turbine meters: they offer a lower pressure drop and reduced risk of contamination from liquids with suspended solids, whilst achieving a good level of linearity/repeatability. Typical applications include chilled water circuit monitoring, oil based temperature controllers, chemical & water batching.
