Flow-meter-PPC-CAN-SFM Flow Turbine

The CAN Flow Turbine Flow-meter-PPC-CAN-SFM is specially designed for the use with the CAN Hydraulic Testers and has to be installed permanently in the pipeline where the oil flow rotates the internal axial turbine. The generated frequencies are processed by digital electronics (a signal converter).

Interferences caused by flow effects are compensated by this process. The signal converter is now directly integrated into the CAN Flow Turbine. This allows even simpler operation and supports permanent coupling of the turbine and signal converter components that are matched to one another.

The CAN Flow Turbine also improves the response times/reaction times (from a previous 400 ms to 50 ms) and increases measurement accuracy.

The CAN Flow Turbine is available in five versions for various flow speeds. A CAN Pressure Sensor-PPC-CAN-P can be connected parallel to the CAN Flow Turbine by the way of the integrated test coupling. In addition, the oil temperature can also be measured using the connection of the Temperature Sensor-PPC-CAN-T.

In general, the CAN Flow Turbine can handle flows in either direction. The specified technical data an the calibration (available as an option) apply only when the flow through the CAN Flow Turbine matched the recommended flow direction. A double-headed arrow is shown on the nameplate of the Flow-meter-PPC-CAN-SFM. The thicker end of the double-headed arrow specifies the recommended direction of the flow.

Connecting the CAN Flow Turbine to the CAN Hydraulic Tester a CAN Connection Cable and a CAN Terminating Resistor is needed.
