The FLOMEC® DP Series insertion meters use a paddlewheel design to measure the flow of water, fuels, and other low viscosity liquids in pipe sizes 1.5” – 100” (10 – 2500 mm).
DP Series Insertion Meters are a versatile and economical product for flow measurement in large pipes, where they provide moderately accurate readings at an exceptionally low cost of ownership.
With a simple and reliable design, and various options for outputs, displays, and hazardous area ratings they provide a fantastic alternative to full-bore flow meters in many applications.
Features & Benefits
1.5% of reading accuracy provides exceptional measurement accuracy with limited investment
Near zero pressure drop, minimising pumping costs
Extremely versatile design means one product is suited for a huge variety of pipe sizes
DP525 model is suitable for ‘hot tap’ installations allowing installation/withdrawal of the product in a full pipe
Only one moving part provides a reliable product with minimal maintenance costs
IP68 submersible design (flying cable versions only) with corrosion proof 316 construction means you can install it anywhere
IECEx/ATEX models available, making the product safe to use in flammable liquid applications
Sizes & Flowrates
The FLOMEC® DP490 is exceptionally suited to measurement of water flow in pipe sizes up to 36” / 900mm in size, where installed cost is more critical than extreme accuracy. In these situations the DP490 can be a perfect alternative to an electromagnetic meter or a clamp-on ultrasonic, where the DP490 can achieve exceptionally repeatable results at +/-1.5% accuracy, at a fraction of the cost of alternative technologies.
