DUK - Compact Ultrasonic Flowmeter
The new KOBOLD model DUK flow meters are used for measuring, monitoring, metering, and batching of low viscosity fluids. The devices work on the principle of run time difference. Ultrasonic waves in the media are influenced by the rate of flow. Two sensors mounted opposite one another in the pipeline function simultaneously as transmitter and receiver of the ultrasonic signals. more... |

DMI - Magnetic Inductive Flowmeter for Conductive Liquids and Slurries
The KOBOLD series DMI operates on the magneto-inductive principle. With no protrusions into the pipe, conductive liquids and slurries can be measured with virtually no system pressure loss. The DMI is available with a PEEK or PVDF flow tube and Hastelloy C measuring electrodes are standard. These features make the DMI series light-weight, economical and suitable for many types of chemical solutions and aggressive media. The DMI series has no moving parts and is therefore virtually maintenance free. The electronics package includes an LCD rate/total display which is switchable from U.S. to metric units. The standard open collector output is configurable as a pulse flowrate transmitter or alarm switch. An optional 4-20 mA flow rate transmitter is also available. Setup is easy with menudriven programming which can be set by the user in one of seven different languages. more... |

PSR/PS - Paddle Type Flow Switch
KOBOLD series PSR/PS paddle type flow switches can be used wherever a simple economic yet reliable monitoring instrument is required for flow switching applications. The device operates as follows: The flowing medium presses against the paddle. The paddle is fitted to one end of a balance arm which is in direct contact with a pre-stressed leaf spring. At the other end of the balance arm is a permanent magnet. This magnet actuates a reed contact located within a moveable housing outside the media. The reed contact switches on or off depending on the flow rate. The switch output can then be used for system protection control. The movable reed switch on the KOBOLD PSR/PS allows the contact to be set either normally open (N/O) or normally closed (N/C) in the field. more... |
