AW-Lake Introduces New Turbine Flow Meter for Highly Accurate Hydraulic System Monitoring

OAK CREEK, Wis. - June 13, 2024 - PRLog -- This cost-effective and versatile turbine-style flow meter measures hydraulic fluids for precise regulation and control of flow rates in hydraulic systems.  It is optimized for hydraulic performance applications and ideal for components such as pumps, valves, and fittings.

The HM-U Hydraulic System Flow Meter performs in temperatures ranges from -40°F (140°C) to 248°F (120°C) and offers accuracy of ±0.5% M.V. over full range with 30cP fluid.  Two integrated quarter inch BSPP connections allow users to install their own temperature and/or pressure transmitters for optional measurement. Compact and lightweight, the flow meter features a durable aluminum housing with stainless steel internals.

The HM-U Hydraulic System Flow Meter is compatible with the AW-Lake EDGE Flow Sensor that offers Bluetooth capabilities providing users easy access, understanding, and control of their flow measurement.  Easily mounted on the turbine flow meter, the EDGE Flow Sensor outputs a frequency, current, or analog signal that gives users more installation flexibility, especially when unsure of readout equipment or a control room interface.

Bluetooth connectivity enables the use of smart devices for setting K-factor, alarms, totalization, and more. Operators can remotely configure, set parameters, fine-tune adjustments and troubleshoot the sensor remotely using a mobile device.
