SERIES 1200 LIQUID TURBINE FLOW METER
Daniel Series 1200 Liquid Turbine Flow Meters are designed specically for load rack service where a vital
characteristic is repeatability. The meter deploys a lightweight rotor which is supported on self-cleaning ow through
ball bearings. As a result, the meter is versatile and is particularly suited to batch loading of light hydrocarbons. The
meter has been used successfully on uids with viscosities up to 6 centistokes. The meter can also be supplied with
optional tungsten carbide bearings for more demanding applications
The meter features an upstream expanding hanger which centers the internals in the body, with cantilevered support
of the rotor. The stainless steel ball bearings or the tungsten carbide bearings and the shaft are housed in the meter
hub. The meter will operate in any plane, and is frequently used in the vertical orientation with ow upward to save
space at a load rack.
The design includes an integral ow conditioning plate which allows operation without upstream ow straightening
available on the 1.5”, 2”, 3” and 4” meters. This conguration is particularly valuable in vertical use at load racks.
