The Series 228 flow sensors from Badger Meter® feature a six-bladed impeller
design with a proprietary non-magnetic sensing mechanism. The forward swept
impeller shape provides higher, more consistent torque than four-bladed impeller
designs 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. This is especially true where the
impeller is exposed to metallic or rust particles found in steel or iron pipes. As the
liquid flow turns the impeller, a low impedance square wave signal is transmitted
with a frequency proportional to the flow rate. The signal can travel up to 2000 ft
between the flow sensor and the display unit without the need for amplification.
All sensors, except irrigation versions, are supplied with 20 ft of 2-conductor
20 AWG shielded UL type PTLC 221° F (105° C) cable.
