5. DESCRIPTION

Area of application

The 8030 flowmeter is intended to measure the flow rate of
neutral or slightly aggressive liquids free of solid particles.
Construction
The device is built with an SE30 electronic module and an
S030 fitting incorporating the measuring element. The device
can be mounted on any pipe from DN6 to DN65.
The electronic device can be removed without opening the
piping or stopping the process.
Depending on the version, the device has either one NPN
transistor output or two transistor outputs, NPN and PNP.
Electrical connection is made via a male fixed connector.

Measuring principle

The fluid flowing in the piping makes the paddle-wheel
turn. The sensor detects the rotation of the paddle-wheel
thus generating a signal which frequency f is proportional
to the flow rate Q, acc. to formula f = KxQ.
f = frequency in Hertz (Hz)
K = K factor of the S030 fitting used, in pulse/litre
Q = flow rate in litre/second
