The Sponsler Precision Turbine Flowmeter measures
volume by a contour mounted turbine in the flow stream. The AC signal
output is detected by a transducer and interpreted by various
electronic devices used for flow rate indication and totalisation.
Sponsler Precision Turbine Flowmeters are manufactured to handle
problems of viscosity, corrosive media, extreme temperature, and
hazardous materials. Its compact and rugged design has established a
new criteria for flow measurement, meeting today's for higher accuracy
and reliability under severe operating conditions. |

Sponsler Precision Turbine Gas Flowmeters are
designed to measure actual cubic feet or actual volume passing
through the meter. Before sizing a flowmeter it is necessary to
convert flow units (i.e. SCFM.LPM, etc.) to actual units. To
convert to actual measured volume (ACFM) from standard
volume (SCFM) use the following formula: |
| |
| ACFM = SCFM X 14.7/Pa X
Ta/530 |
| |
| Where: |
| ACFM |
|
= |
|
Actual cubic feet per minute measured gas flow. |
| SCFM |
|
= |
|
Standard cubic feet per minute gas flow. |
| Pa |
|
= |
|
Operating pressure in (PSIA) |
| |
|
= |
|
PSIG + 14.7 |
| Ta |

Temperature in degrees Rankine = F + 460 |
