Chemical meter

For monitoring of chemicals in industrial processes and in the chemical, pharmaceutical and food processing industries for totalization, batch control and rate of flow, Elster AMCO Water offers either Positive Displacement or Turbine design stainless steel meters. These meters offer exceptional accuracy (± 0.5%) and can be configured for temperatures up to 356º F (180º C).

Our Precision Stainless Steel Turbine Meters are available ins sizes ½" through 3".  These meters are appropriate for a wide variety of flow applications.  Outputs options include sine wave frequency pulse, conditional square wave pulse or blind 4-20mA analogue signal.  

316 Stainless Steel Turbine meters are an inferential design that allows fluid to pass through the meter without a change in direction. 316 SS Turbines are manufactured in sizes ½” to 2” and provide accuracy ± 2% at low and normal flows.

For many chemicals incompatible with 316 SS and where a more rugged meter is required, Elster AMCO offers a ½” and 1” high-accuracy turbine, of the same design as our SS turbine, but manufactured of PVDF (Kynar). Our PVDF Turbine meters, depending on size, are suitable for flows of 0.5 to 50 gpm and operate in a temperature range of -20º F to 140º F (-28º C to 82º C).

Both stainless steel and Kynar chemical turbine meters are Factory Mutual (FM) approved and carry a Class 1, Division 1, Groups A-G Approval for hazardous environments.

Chemical Turbine Meters can be equipped with pulse output, 4-20 mA output, external power module or standard remote kit for applications for use with remote counters, batch controllers, rate transmitters, direct to chart recorder or computers. The standard remote kit allows chemical turbine meters to be placed in high temperature applications, up to 250º F (121º C).
