Ovel Gear Flow Meter

Introduction

Oval Gear Flow meters are the instruments, invented based on the positive displacement principle considering accuracy and precision as the core of their performance. These volumetric flow meters are best used in industries like oil and petroleum, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, general manufacturing industries where high level of accuracy and repeatability are required.

Operation Principal

Liquid Passes into the single case measuring chamber and displaces two oval gears. Each rotation of an oval gear is proportional to a discrete unit of volume. In turn, the speed at which the gears rotate is directly proportional to flow rate. Reed or Hall Effect sensors mounted outside the pressure boundary detect the movement of the ovalgears, thus allowing local or remote instruments to dis-

It is recommended that all "signal" cables are screened and run separately to power lines and switched inductive loads and are located well away from inverters and other "noisy" apparatus. Always use sound wiring practice. Both Hall effect and optical detectors (NPN) require a 10K Ohm external pull-up resistor connected between the output and a suitable power supply to attain a pulse. Typically the flowmeter PSU may be used but sometimes a dc pulse, which is of a different voltage, may be required e.g. using a PLC with a 24V PSU and an internal 5V rail for the pul-up
