Request Information

The FlowStat Paddle Wheel Flow Meter with integral sensor provides for very simple installation and operation. The sturdy Stainless Steel body provides durability and a long service life. FlowStat is offered with multiple outputs to choose from in addition to visual indication of flow through its optional clear cover where you can see the Rotor Flow. The straight fluid path and large spinning rotor means there is minimal pressure drop.

Applications include:

  • Chillers & Cooling Systems
  • Solar Power Systems
  • HVAC
  • De-Icing/Anti-Icing

    Choice of Three Port Sizes
    Select from 1/2" , 3/4" or 1" NPT porting to meet system requirements.
    NOTE: Using reduced ID fittings will affect calibrated range.

    Encapsulated Circuitry
    Withstands the harshest environments.

    Several Outputs Available
    The standard interface is a 2-wire, 4-20mA current loop. Sensor signal may be transmitted on a low cost wire without degradation. Pulse, relay and 0-5 VDC (regulated) are also available.

    Connects Directly to your Flow Monitoring Instruments
    Can be connected directly to analog acquisition cards, chart recorders or other monitoring instruments, without external signal conditioning.

    Simply Plumb and Apply Power
    Comes factory calibrated to your flow range specifications.
