Flostar Single Jet Technology - Measuring Chamber
|
| Flostar’s tapered inlet straightens the flow profile, creating a single jet of water that is projected into the measuring chamber, where it strikes the blades of the impeller. The design of the inlet and measuring chamber alleviates the need for a straight pipe, calibration vane or a by-pass adjustment. |
|
|
| The impeller rests on our patented ball pivot. Unlike a traditional pin pivot, which concentrates all of the weight on a single point, the ball pivot distributes the force evenly over a wide area, reducing pivot wear. |
|
|
|
As water flows through the chamber, it levitates the impeller, causing it to become suspended between upper and lower pivot points.
There is no contact, resulting in zero pivot wear for most of measuring range. |
