Blancett FloClean Turbine Flow Meter

3-A sanitary turbine flow meter for 0.6 to 400 gpm flow rates

The 3-A sanitary Blancett FloClean turbine flow meter was developed for use in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries. The 316L stainless steel construction of the Blancett FloClean turbine flow meter provides a durable and cost efficient flow measurement system that offers excellent accuracy and repeatability.

The sanitary Blancett FloClean turbine flow meter utilizes the most up-to-date polishing technology on all internal components, and all materials comply with FDA requirements. The Blancett FloClean turbine flow meter meets the requirements of 3-A Sanitary Standard number 28-03 for use in clean-out-of-place (COP) and sanitize-out-of-place (SOP) applications.

The Blancett FloClean turbine flow meter's output signal is a sine-wave that is proportional to volumetric flow. With optional Blancett electronics, the Blancett FloClean turbine flow meter provides local flow rate and volume totalization and will interface with most displays, PLCs, and computers.

Operating Principle

Fluid entering the meter first passes through an inlet flow straightener that reduces its turbulent flow pattern. Fluid then passes through the turbine, causing the turbine to rotate at a speed proportional to fluid velocity. As each turbine blade passes through the magnetic field generated by the meter's magnetic pick-up, an AC voltage pulse is generated. These pulses provide an output frequency that is proportional to volumetric flow.
