Working Principle of oval gear PD volumetric flow meter
The working principle of an oval gear positive displacement flow meter is straightforward. When fluid enters the meter, it fills the spaces between the oval gears and when the fluid flows, the gears rotate in opposite directions, each rotation of the gears moves a precise volume of fluid through the meter, which is counted by the attached measurement system. This mechanism ensures a highly accurate flow measurement, making these flow meters ideal for applications with varying fluid conditions.
Design of flow meter
Inbuilt display
One of the significant advantages of PD flow meters with inbuilt display is the versatility in their output options and operator interface by providing instant feedback on flow readings.. Typically, these meters come equipped with multiple output types, including 4 to 20 mA, pulse signals, RS485, and HART protocols, This makes it easier to integrate them into existing control and monitoring systems, ensuring seamless communication and data collection. Certified with ATEX, IP67, Exia and Exid verification for hazardous, intrinsic safe and weatherproof Application
Pulse output sensor
In the oval gear flow sensor, pulse output refers to the electronic signals generated by the device as it measures the flow. Each rotation of the oval gears creates a pulse, which is transmitted to a digital display or a flow controller. Thus, the pulse output indicates the flow rate, enabling precise monitoring and control, which is essential in industrial applications such as liquid dispensing and bottling ,compact design allows for easy integration into existing systems, making them a popular choice for engineers and technicians.
Mechanical flow meter
The inclusion of a mechanical counter in an oval gear positive displacement flow meter enhances its usability. It allows operators to easily read the flow measurement without needing any electronic components. This is particularly beneficial in environments where electronic devices may be less reliable. Moreover, the resettable key feature makes it simple to reset the counter for batch measurements, facilitating ease of use in various applications. In addition to the mechanical counter, BROIL oval gear flow meters optionally equipped with a pulse output option.
