FEATURES
The TX80-Series are insertion turbine meters designed for use
in 1-1/2" to 8" pipe. High-quality jewel bearings and precision
shafts ensure long life and low friction. Available in 316 stain-
less steel, brass and PVC, sensor bodies are machined from
solid rod for maximum low-flow performance. The TX80-Series
use special fittings that ensure ease of installation and correct
depth setting in the pipe.
The rotation of the turbine is detected by a non-drag Hall-effect
sensor. Output is a pulse-type square wave, which can be sent
long distances (up to 2,000 feet) without a transmitter. This
signal can be connected directly to Seametrics controls and
displays, as well as PLC's, counters, and computer cards.
Seametrics TX80 meters are ideal for chemical proportioning
applications. If no display is required, a simple divider such as
the PD10 provides adjustable pump pacing. For rate and total
display, as well as pump pacing, the FT420 flow indicator can
be mounted directly on the TX80-Series, or remotely on a wall
or panel. The FT415 offers a battery-operated rate/totalizer
where power is not available.
Caution: U-clip
must be installed
before use.
