The metal flow sensor type F111 offers high strength and mechanical resistance applied to hot-tap insertion technology. The sensor can be assembled in pressurized pipes using a proper clamp saddle for a precise positioning into the pipe and get the maximum accuracy. The sensor is available with both paddlewheel and turbine technologies. The paddlewheel sensor can measure flow from 0.15 m/s (0.5 ft/s) while the turbine sensor can start measuring from 0.08 m/s (0.26 ft/s) and the bi-directional version is able to recognize the direction of the flow. The F111 hot tap sensor can fit for a wide range of pipe dimensions starting from DN50 up to DN900.
