Kobold DTK Rotating Vane Flow Meter

  

 

 

 

The flowmeter models DTK are used to measure and monitor liquids of low viscosity. Its compact design allows it to be used in equipment where space is at a premium.

Measuring range: 0.05 - 0.6 ... 1.0 - 12 l/min water
Connection: G ¼, ¼" NPT
Material: stainless steel
p_max: 30 bar
t_max: 140 °C
Accuracy: ±2 % of full scale
Pulse output, analogue output, contacts, digital display

Working Principle
The medium flows through a specially shaped flow housing and causes a vane to rotate. Two magnets in the paddle wheel provide electrical pulses in Hall sensor. The frequency is directly proportional to the flow velocity. The evaluating electronic uses these signals for measurement, monitoring and batching.

Areas of Application

• Low viscosity liquids
• Non conductive liquids
• Volume dosing with external electronics
• Laundry machines
• PCB manufacture machines
• Agricultural machinery
