In-Line Paddle Wheel Flow Meter Sensor

Safety Information
De-pressurize and vent system prior to installation or removal Confirm chemical compatibility before use DO NOT exceed maximum temperature or pressure specifications ALWAYS wear safety goggles or face-shield during installation and/or service DO NOT alter product construction

Warning | Caution | Danger
Indicates a potential hazard. Failure to follow all warnings may lead to equipment damage, injury, or death.
Note | Technical Notes
Highlights additional information or detailed procedure.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Always utilize the most appropriate PPE during installation and service of Truflo® products.
Pressurized System Warning
Sensor may be under pressure. Take caution to vent system prior to installation or removal. Failure to do so may result in equipment damage and/or serious injury.

Please ensure that the Instruments are not to be subject to water hammer or pressure spikes! Always Pressure Test System with H2O Prior to Initial Start-Up
Before installation be certain the appropriate instrument has been selected considering operating pressure, full scale pressure, wetted material requirements, media compatibility, operating temperature, vibration, pulsation, desired accuracy and any other instrument component related to the service application including the potential need for protective attachments and/or special installation requirements. Failure to do so could result in equipment damage, failure and/or personal injury. Ensure only qualified personnel are permitted to install and maintain this instrument.
Pressurize System Warning

WARNING

Sensor may be under pressure, take caution to vent system prior to installation or removal. Failure to do so may result in equipment damage and/or serious injury.

Please Ensure Full Pipe
TK Series can be installed in a horizontal or vertical direction. Please ensure enough length of straight pipe to avoid turbulence that can effect readings.

Min 10x Pipe Diameters Upstream 3x Pipe Diameters Downstream
A Bag Filter or Y Strainer Filtering Device upstream to Avoid the Paddle Wheel from being damaged by the solids or fibers - max 10% Particle Size - Not to Exceed .5mm Cross Section or Length. Please do not flush the pipe after the Flow Meter is installed with compressed air this may damage the ceramic shaft and will void warranty.

Truflo® -- TKW | TK3W Series (Blind)
In-Line Paddle Wheel Flow Meter Sensor

Product Description
The TK Series in-line plastic paddle wheel flow meter has been engineered to provide long-term accurate flow measurement in tough industrial applications.
The paddle wheel assembly consists of a engineered Tefzel® paddle and micro-polished zirconium ceramic rotor pin and bushings. High performance Tefzel® and Zirconium materials have been selected due to their excellent chemical and wear resistant properties.

TKW

New ShearPro® Design
? Contoured Flow Profile ? Reduced Turbulence = Increased Longevity ? 78% Less Drag than Old Flat Paddle Design*
*Ref: NASA "Shape Effects on Drag"

TK3W

Tefzel® Paddle Wheel ? Superior Chemical And Wear Resistance vs PVDF

Zirconium Ceramic Rotor | Bushings
? Up to 15x the Wear Resistance vs Regular Ceramic ? Integral Rotor Bushings Reduce Wear
and Fatigue Stress

ShearPro® Through-Pin Design
? Eliminates Finger Spread ? No Lost Paddles ? Increased Temp. Rating ? 360° Housing Protects Rotor

Finger Spread = LOST Unprotected Rotor
