ICON Paddle Wheel Flow Meters from AutomationDirect

Are you looking for a reliable device to measure liquid flow rate? AutomationDirect offers ICON paddle wheel flow meters for your process controls application. Paddle wheel flow meters measure the flow rate of a liquid by using a rotating paddle wheel placed in the flow stream. When liquid passes through the pipe, it forces the paddle wheel to spin with the rotational speed directly proportional to the liquid's velocity. A sensor detects the wheel's rotation and generates pulses and an analog signal corresponding to this speed. The ICON Process Controls Truflo TKM Series liquid flow meters provide reliable, full-pipe liquid flow measurement with exceptional long-term performance. These rugged, highly repeatable sensors deliver outstanding value with no scheduled maintenance required. Built with a chemically resistant PVC body, they are ideal for corrosive liquid process applications. Each unit comes preprogrammed and offers a bright, 360 rotatable LED display for clear and convenient readability. Models offer sensing ranges up to 357 GPM and are available with inch to 2-inch Schedule 80 socket process connections. They feature a 4 20 mA and pulse outputs, they incorporate the proprietary ShearPro paddle wheel and through-pin designs for enhanced reliability and accuracy. The true-union design enables easy installation and maintenance, allowing quick sensor removal and servicing without disrupting the pipeline.
