Neptune/Actaris Type
S Flowmeters
Sizes 1", 3/4" and 5/8"
The 5/8", 3/4" and 1" Type S flowmeters,
with double case construction, utilize the nutating
disc principle positive displacement measuring chamber
technology. This design results in an extremely accurate
meter which is insensitive to small changes in viscosity
and flow profile disturbances to small changes in viscosity
and flow profile disturbances. Each meter includes a
base unit which houses and protects the measuring chamber
and the gear train. Registers provide reset of delivery
and totalization, and a wide variety of digital pulse
transmitters permit remote operation and monitoring.
The Neptune design nutating disc measuring chamber is
both accurate and dependable, with repeatability of
100% + or - 0.1%. The double case feature reduces the
effect of higher pressure losses in measuring viscous
liquids. In addition, the disc design permits accurate
measurement of liquids with suspended solid particles
(up to .22mm/.009") without major damage or erosion
to the measuring element for intermittent operations.
The rugged bronze outer body components are compatible
with hundred of nonacidic liquids. Threaded end connection
allow rapid conversion from right to left hand flow
with provided coupling sets. Pulse transmitters, when
used with the Batchmate (electronic batch control) and
a locally acquired solenoid valve, result in an economical
and dependable local or remote batching system.
Rugged construction, combined with continual design
improvements, assure a simple to operate and economical
to use system proven through more than 100 years of
experience. The overall design of the Type S yields
a meter with an exceptional ability to measure a wide
variety of mild corrosive and erosive liquids.
The Type S flowmeters do not require elaborate timing
gears or difficult adjustment procedures to insure proper
function of the measuring element. Replacement of a
worn or damaged measuring chamber, gear train or register
is both simple accomplish and requires very little time.
Time proven positive adjustment through Neptune calibration
(change) gears allows changes in increments as small
as 0.15% and reduces errors caused by vibration and
tampering.
Normally assembled as a right hand flow: inlet on left,
with outlet on right. Optional left hand flow: inlet
on right, with outlet on left requires rotating the
register by 180 degrees. |
