The Blancett FloClean turbine flow meter comes with a tri-clover end fitting for pre-process food and beverage applications that require high accuracy without 3-A approval, or with a sanitary clamp end for use in clean-out-of-place (COP) and sanitize-out-of-place (SOP) applications. Their 316L stainless steel construction provides a durable and cost efficient flow measurement system that offers excellent accuracy and repeatability.

The 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. The meter features 316L stainless steel body and wetted parts, nickel bindery tungsten carbide bearings and shaft, and nickel plated CD4MCU stainless steel rotor.

The operating principle involves fluid entering the meter 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. Accuracy is ±1.0% of reading with ±0.1% repeatability, and turbine temperature range is -150 to 300°F (-100 to 149°C). A 5-point NIST traceable calibration certificate is available separately.
