M-10000 Paddlewheel Flow Meter for Inline Liquid Measurement Positive Displacement Tangential Turbine Flow Meter

Paddlewheel Flow Meters (or tangential turbine flow meters) are among the most common ways to measure flow electronically in many applications. The enhanced M-10000 Series Paddlewheel Flow Meter offers reliable flow sensing in a compact, easy-to-install design, with higher accuracy by utilizing sophisticated circuitry to foster signal conditioning.

This positive displacement flow meter comes in five sizes (1/4” to 1”) and features optional outputs such as 4-20 mA, 0-10 VDC, or pulse. The M-10000 Paddlewheel Flow Meter can also be used as an adjustable flow switch to monitor increasing or decreasing flow based on set points.

The M-10000 Paddlewheel Flow Meter is highly configurable based on your application requirements. Each component is available in many construction materials, both metal and plastic, and the unit can be designed for specific chemical compatibility if needed.

Malema welcomes the opportunity to design special requirements for M-10000 Paddlewheel Flow Meters, such as ports, extreme temperature and pressure capabilities, custom manifolds, and more.
