The IP80 series are impeller type (or “paddlewheel”) insertion meters de-

signed for use with a wide variety of liquids in pipe sizes 1/2” to 8”. Sensors

are available in brass, 316 stainless steel, PVC, and polypropylene. Bodies

are machined from a solid rod for maximum precision. High-quality jewel

bearings and nickel-bound tungsten carbide shafts are used for extreme low

friction and long life.

The rotation of the rotor is detected by a non-drag Hall-effect sensor. Output

is a current-sinking pulse (square wave), which can be sent long distances

(up to 2,000 feet) without a transmitter. This signal can be connected directly

to PLC’s, counters, and computer cards, as well as a variety of AquaMetrix

controls and displays.

For rate and total display, the Shark-120/240 controller or Shark TX/P trans-

mitter (loop powered) models are compatible with IP80 series sensors. They

can be mounted in either surface, pipe

or panel configurations.

The IP80 series require special fittings

that ensure correct depth placement in

the pipe. Fittings come in a variety of

materials for compatibility with specific

applications. Tee fittings are individu-

ally wet-calibrated at the factory and

marked with the K-factor (pulses per

gallon). Saddle fittings must be field-

installed on the pipe and do not come

wet-calibrated. K-factors for saddles

are based on factory testing.
