ABB Turbine Meters

1-1/2" - 8" In Bronze, Up to 20" in Epoxy Coated Cast Iron

 

Description

The ABB T-3000 Turbine Meter is designed for installation where occasional low and moderate to high sustained flows are demanded. Water passes through the meter without a change in flow direction, driving a helix rotor in direct proportion to the quantity of water passing through the meter. Rotor revolutions are transferred to a register by appropriate reduction gearing and a magnetic drive.

Compliance to Standards.

The T-3000 Turbine Meter complies with all performance and material requirements of the American Water Works Association Standard C701, Class II In-Line (High-Velocity) Type, as most recently revised.

Installation.

The meter must be installed in a clean pipeline, free from any foreign materials. Install the meter with direction of flow as indicated by the arrow cast in the meter case. The meter may be installed in horizontal, inclined, or vertical lines. It is recommended that a plate strainer be used to protect the turbine and help reduce the effects of turbulence. The installer should consider a bypass pipe with gate valves for use during maintenance and a downstream test plug for future field testing.

Application.

The meter for use with POTABLE COLDWATER up to 120F (50C) and working pressures up to 150 psi. The meter will perform with accuracy registration of 100% ± 1 1/2% within its normal flow. Both pressure loss and accuracy tests are made before shipment. No adjustments are needed to be made before installation.
