Metallic Tee Type Flow Sensors - Series 228

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.

Provides higher, more consistent torque than four-bladed impeller designs.

Used in conjunction with any Badger Meter® impeller flow monitor or transmitter, Badger Meter non-magnetic flow sensors provide an accurate reading of the rate of liquid flow as well as total accumulated flow.

  • Six-bladed impeller design with a proprietary non-magnetic sensing mechanism
  • Impeller, bearing and shaft are easily replaced in field without changing calibration
  • Sensor electronics easily removed from tee
  • Two-wire sensor—power and signal transmit on single pair of wires up to the distance of 2000 feet
  • Digital signal easily interfaced with transmitters, monitors, or PLC’s
