FG4000_W Flow meters with wafer flow sensor

The wafer flow sensor is designed to be installed between two flanges held together by threaded rods. These are produced in inner diameters from DN10 to DN150. The biggest advantage of this design is its shorter built-in lenghts. Excpet this, the price of the wafer sensors is the most competetive.

These flowtubes are only made with Teflon liner. As every our flow sensors, the sensing electrode material can be 316L stainless steel, Hastelloy C, titanium, tantalum,… The maximum allowable pressure of these sensors is PN25. The housing of these sensors is finished by a powder coating or brushed stainless steel (needs to be specified by an order). The stainless steel design is recommended in an environment with a permanent humidity like in the breveries, dairies and similar industry. These flow meters are convenient to measure acid or alkaline solutions as well as various kinds of chemicals (lyes, acids, ammonia, hydrogen chloride, cleaning agents, …).

The flowtube contact faces have spigots that align with recesses in the connecting flanges. This arrangement ensures precise flowtube centering within the pipe thus eliminating any potential metering errors from flowtube improper installation. It is therefore useful to order the flow meters with our original installation sets that contain flanges with appropriate recesses. These flanges are also fitted with connecting terminals for earthing conductors. Installation sets may also be custom specified with respect to installation length and type of connection (DIN 11851 aseptic thread for food industry, DIN 32676 clamp connection, etc.)
Earthing rings are also available on request. This guarantees flawless flow meter operation at all times even for installations in electrical non-conductive materials (plastic, concrete,… pipeline). All materials to be in contact with the medium under measurement are certified for permanent contact with drinking water (edibles) and hot utility water.
Our flow meters are thus suitable for all kinds of food processing applications to measure flow of drinking water, wine and related products, milk, whey, beer, fruit juices and other food consumables. Besides other, they resist cleaning lyes or acids that are used in such applications on a daily basis. They furthermore meet specific requirement in most chemical facilities.
