1.2 TYPICAL TURBINE FLOW METERS
ONICON’s Turbine Flow Meters measure the velocity
of owing liquids by counting the frequency at
which the blades of a rotating turbine pass a xed
electrode. Circuitry within the ow meter electronics
enclosure then converts the rotational rate to digital
and/or analog signals which are transmitted via
a connecting cable to any of ONICON’s display
devices, BTU meters and/or a data acquisition
system.
