The series 200 flow sensors feature a six bladed impeller design with a proprietary non-magnetic sensing mechanism. The forward swept impeller shape provides higher, more consistent torque and is less prone to be fouled by water borne debris. The forward curved shape coupled with the absence of magnetic drag provides improved operation and repeatability even at lower flow rates.
The model 225BR and 226BR/226SS sensors are used for flow measuring applications in most metallic or non-metallic pipes where it would be difficult to shut down or drain the line for installation or service. The model 225 features agate valve for isolation and the model 226 a ball valve. If the pipe is too hot tapped, the ball valve is recommended
