Model DC-I Series - Positive Displacement Flow Meter Brochure

Decathlon SeriesIndustrial FlowmetersDescriptionThe patented Flow Technology Decathlon Series ofindustrial in-line flowmeters is ideal for a wide varietyof liquid flow applications. These applications include,but are not limited to, paints, resins, petrochemicals,lubricants, fuels, polyurethanes and adhesives. Theseflowmeters are both highly accurate and easily adaptable to most industrial applications.Features• 1/8" to 2" line sizes• Reference accuracy ±0.05% of rate• Only two moving parts• Bearingless design• Easy to install and maintain• Handles viscosities up to 1,000,000 cP+• Up to 1000 psig operating pressure• Operating temperatures up to 400° F (204° C)• Wide range of applications• Non-intrusive sensor• Up to 1000:1 turndown• Various process connection types available• Handles pulsating flow streamsPrinciple of OperationDecathlon SeriesIndustrial FlowmetersFlow Technology positive displacement flowmeters use two rotating impellers driven by the flowing liquid. Magnets imbedded in the impellers activate a non-intrusive sensor which generates a pulsed output signal. Each pulse represents a known volume of liquid that is captured in between the lobes of the impellers. A K-factor converts the pulses into engineering units for remote data collection and digital display.Protected by one or more U.S. Patents:4641522, 4815318, 4911010, 4996888, 5027653, 5325715Flowmeter Assembly DiagramsDC01I, DC02ISensor and Cable(Sold Separately)ImpellersCase O-RingFront CoverCover BoltsImpeller ShaftsIntegral BodyCover BoltsImpeller ShaftsIntegral BodyImpellersCase O-RingFront CoverDC05I, DC10I, DC15I, DC20ISensor and Cable(Sold Separately)DimensionsANPTAFlange B ECDSpecificationsOperating Temperature Up to 400° F (204° C) based on impeller materialsOperating PressureStandard 250 psig max.
