Model 1100 Turbine Flow Meter

The Model 1100 Turbine Flow Meter is designed to withstand the demands of the most rigorous flow measurement applications. Originally developed for the secondary oil recovery market, the Model 1100 is an ideal meter for liquid flow measurement on or off the oilfield.

The meter features a rugged 316 stainless steel housing and rotor support assemblies. CD4MCU stainless steel rotor. and abrasive-resistant tungsten carbide rotor shaft and journal bearings. The Model 1100 maintains measurement accuracy and mechanical integrity in the corrosive and abrasive fluids commonly found in oil field water flood projects and many industrial applications.

Designed to operate with the Model B2800 Flow Monitor, the Model 1100 turbine meter meets a wide range of measurement requirements. This makes it ideal for applications such as pipelines, production/injection fields, in-situ mining operations, offshore facilities, and other industrial applications.

 
Features:
  • Offers accurate and repeatable flow measurement in ranges from 0.6 to 5,000 GPM (20 to 171,000 BPD)
  • Cost-effective solution for turbine flow meter applications
  • Rugged 316 stainless steel construction offers long service life in severe operating environments
  • Available in NPT BSP, Victaulic , Flange, or Hose Barbed end connections
  • NIST traceable calibration
  • Installation in pipe sizes from 1/2" to 10"
  • Integrate electronically with B2800 Flow Monitor, K-Factor Scaler, or the F to I/F to V Intelligent Converter
  • Field replaceable repair kits allow for turbine replacement without loss of accuracy
 
Operating Principle:
Fluid entering the meter passes through the inlet flow straightener which reduces its turbulent flow pattern and improves the fluid's velocity profile. Fluid then passes through the turbine causing it to rotate at a speed proportional to fluid velocity. As each turbine blade passes through the magnetic field, at the base of the pickoff transducer, an AC voltage pulse is generated in the pickup coil. These impulses produce an output frequency proportional to the volumetric flow through the meter.

Installation:
The Model 1100 Turbine Meter is simple to install and service. It operates in any orientation (horizontal to vertical) as long as the "flow direction" arrow is aligned in the same direction as the actual line flow. For optimum performance, `woe the flow meter should be installed with a minimum of 10 diameters upstream straight pipe length and 5 diameters downstream straight pipe length.
 
Repair Kits:

Factory calibrated repair kits are available for field or factory service. This is of particular importance when fluids contain abrasive contaminants and meters require frequent service.

A repair kit contains two retaining rings, two rotor supports, one rotor assembly, and a K-Factor tag. The rotor support assembly is retained in proper position within the meter body by retainer rings. These rings allow for use with Blancett turbines and other flow meters of similar design contact the factory or refer to Form #4300 for further details.

 
K-Factor:

The K-Factor represents the number of output pulses transmitted per gallon of fluid passing through the turbine meter. Each turbine has a unique K-Factor. However, turbine meters are not functionally consistent throughout the full flow range of the meter.

There are several forms of "friction" inherent in turbine meters that retard the rotational movement of the turbine rotor. These frictional forces include: magnetic drag, created by electromagnetic force of pickup transducers; mechanical drag, due to bearing friction; and viscous drag, produced by flowing fluid. See charts at right.

As flow increases, the frictional forces are minimized and the free motion of the turbine rotor becomes more I+near (proportional to flow). The K-Factor becomes relatively constant and linear throughout the balance of the linear flow range. This is approximately a 10:1 turndown ratio from the rate down to the 71 minimum flow rate.
