The KOBOLD TUR turbine flow meter serves applications involving the need to measure, control and regulate flowing, water-like liquids with a viscosity of 8 cSt or lower. The use of highly chemically resistant materials such as PVC or PVDF in the construction of TUR allows them to withstand acids, lyes and other aggressive media commonly found in the chemical industry. TUR flow meters may be installed in any desired orientation provided care is taken to keep the flow meter full of liquid. The motion of the media through the housing causes rotation of the turbine, which is detected by an external proximity sensor. Turbine rotation is linear with respect to flow over a range comprising approximately 90% of the upper range of this flow meter. An optional display and control module converts the impulse signal into a displayed number or control output (relay closure or current loop).

Flow Direction Specification May Be Required

**Important: This flow meter (model dependent) may require flow direction specification to complete your order.

While our product number identifies the meter's core specifications, flow direction is a critical parameter for certain models that must be specified separately to ensure proper performance and installation.

Why Flow Direction Matters

Flow meters are precision instruments engineered with internal components optimized for fluid movement in a specific direction, for certain models. Installing a meter that requires flow direction with an incorrect flow direction will not allow it to function properly.

What We Need From You

Please read the datasheet order table carefully (including any asterisks) and if your model requires a flow direction please specify your desired flow direction, in addition to your part number, when placing your order.

Flow directions are option/model-dependent but may include the following choices:

Top to Bottom
Bottom to Top
Left to Right
Right to Left

We cannot process orders without the required flow direction specification, if it is needed. Orders submitted that are missing this information are likely to experience delays in processing.

If you're unsure of your flow direction, our technical team is ready to assist you in determining the correct specification based on your system requirements at 412-788-2830 or customerservice@koboldusa.com.
