DP Series – Flow Meters

Product Details

DP Series Features/ Benefits:

• IP68 (NEMA6) submersible 316SS construction (cable connection only)
• Intrinsically safe option available
• DP525 version suitable for “hot tap” installations
• Quadrature pulse option available for bi-directional flow measurement
• Insertion Meter for 50-2500mm (DP525)

Description

The FLOMEC® DP Series insertion meters use a paddlewheel design to measure the flow of water, fuels, and other low viscosity liquids in pipe sizes 1.5” – 100” (10 – 2500 mm). DP Series Insertion Meters are a versatile and economical product for flow measurement in large pipes, where they provide moderately accurate readings at an exceptionally low cost of ownership.

Features:

• IECEx/ATEX models available, making the product safe to use in flammable liquid applications.
• 1.5% of reading accuracy provides exceptional measurement accuracy with limited investment
• Extremely versatile design means one product is suited for a huge variety of pipe sizes
• Only one moving part provides a reliable product with minimal maintenance costs

DP490: 1.5″ ~36″ (40mm~900mm) Pipe Sizes | Flow Velocity from 1m/s ~10m/s (3~33ft/s)

The FLOMEC® DP490 is exceptionally suited to measurement of water flow in pipe sizes up to 36” / 900mm in size, where installed cost is more critical than extreme accuracy. In these situations the DP490 can be a perfect alternative to an electromagnetic meter or a clamp-on ultrasonic, where the DP490 can achieve exceptionally repeatable results at +/-1.5% accuracy, at a fraction of the cost of alternative technologies.

The DP490 is also suitable for measurement of any low viscosity liquid in a large pipe, such as fuels and solvents, where the intrinsically safe display options on the DP490 allow installation in any IECEx or ATEX area.

DP525: 2″ ~100″ (50mm~2500mm) Pipe Sizes | Flow Velocity from 1m/s ~10m/s (3~33ft/s)

The FLOMEC® DP525 is exceptionally suited to measurement of water flow in pipe sizes up to 100” / 2500mm in size, where installed cost is more critical than extreme accuracy. In these situations, the DP525 can be a perfect alternative to an electromagnetic meter or a clamp-on ultrasonic, where the DP525 can achieve exceptionally repeatable results at +/-1.5% accuracy, at a fraction of the cost of alternative technologies.

The ability to install the DP525 in a ‘hot tap’ configuration allows removal and ball-valve isolation of the DP525 from the process line. This allows the user to use a single meter for monitoring of various pipes, or to service the product without shutting down the pipe. This ability further reduces the cost of metering a large diameter pipe.

The DP525 is also suitable for measurement of any low viscosity liquid in a large pipe, such as fuels and solvents, where the intrinsically safe display options on the DP525 allow installation in any IECEx or ATEX area.

The DP Series meters are the perfect solution for measuring water flows in large pipes where optimal cost is critical.

Typical Applications: 

• Water distribution
• Water treatment
