Ⅰ、Generality
Turbine Flow Meter (Abbr. TUF) is a main type of Impeller Flowmeters
the accumulative flow value. The velocity (or circles) of rotor can be
reading device.
It is said that America announced the first TUF patent early in 1886.
The patent in 1914 recorded that the TUF flow value is relevant to
industry until the end of the world war two, since it is urgent for the jet
engine and liquid jet fuel to demand high accuracy, quick responses flow
turbine flowmeter with the features of simple structure, light weight, high
pipes. The liquid of kinematic above 5*10-6 ㎡/s can be measured after
Ⅱ、 Principle of Operation
As the measured liquid flows through the sensor, the drived vane begins
voltage, it is the pulse signal, that will be sent to the display to show after
amplified by magnifier.
theoretical one:
Qv=f/k
Qm= Qv vρ
The related curve of flowmeter factor and flow rate is in the graph
factor curve can be divided into two parts of linearity and non-linearity.
The linear part accounts for two-thirds of the entire curve which feature
the viscosity resistance of liquid. When flow rate is below the lower
limit of sensor, the instrument factor are quickly increasing with it. The
value of pressure loss and the flow rate are similar to be square relations.
If flow rate surpassed the upper limit, pay attention to preventing from

pipeline length upstream generally is not less than 20D and the
space does not satisfy these demands, the flow rectifier may be

install the by-pass pipe and reliable cut-off valve. It must be assured that
After the pipeline inside has been cleared , the short pipe can be changed
back into sensor formally. For this step always has been reglected, the
install two sets of filters which clear impurity in turn, or choose auto
clearing type filer. If the air mixes in the liquid, the eliminator
drain valve should be fixed after the sensor to discharge the impurity
more than Pmin in order to prevent from air pockets that may

⊿P: the pressure loss while the sensor flow rate is the biggest Pa;
the cut-off valve at the upstream side all should be opened, whose
the flow range that might make the reversed flow should prevent the
fluid’s reversed flow with fixing the check valve. Both sensor and
have it protruded into the pipeline. The liquid sensor should not be
fixed at the top of the horizontal pipeline lest the air converging into
measurement.
The sensor’s front and back pipe sections should be supported firmly

LWGY-□N type turbine flow meter sensor connection way:
This sensor has been calibrated and adjusted before sales, so needn’t
examination.
The sensor conbines with displayer: in the first place, checking the
proof.
This transmitter should be set the flow rate output zero point and
the full range value well according to the customer demand when
purchasing.
When the flowmeter works on and the flow rate output zero point
follows:
Close the valves of flowmeter pipe, confirm there is not flow rate in

Ⅺ、 Cautions in Using
※The sensor that have not the branch pipe should slightly
※The sensor with branch should first open the branch pipe
Then open the whole upstream valve, close the whole branch
When low temperature fluid flows through the pipe, first the
the auto control switch, it is best to use “two open, two close”
to prevent cavitation.
The displaying value has 1) The sensor’s internal 1)-4) need first find cause
obvious difference with tunnel wrong; so that use the correct
experience estimation one 2) Sensor’s interior methods;
appears cavitation; 5)replace the magnet
3) The flow inside pipe material
causes problems 6)choose the proper sensor
4) The displayer interior
wrong
5) The effect of
