LWGY-Liquid Turbine Flow Meter

Turbine flow meters use the mechanical energy of the fluid to revolve the rotor in the flow stream. Blades on the rotor are angled to transform energy from the flow stream into rota onal energy. When the fluid moves faster, the rotor spins propor onally faster. Sha rota on can be sensed mechanically or by detec ng the movement of the blades. Blade movement is o en detected magne cally, with each blade or embedded piece of metal genera ng a pulse. Turbine flow meter sensors are typically located external to the flowing stream to avoid material of construc on constraints that would result if we ed sensors were used. When the fluid moves faster, more pulses are generated. The transmi er processes the pulse signal to determine the flow of the fluid.
