Stainless Steel High Performance Paddlewheel Flow
Sensor 2540 Series Description
The Signet 2540 Paddlewheel Flow Sensor offers the strength and corrosion resistance of stainless steel for liquid applications with low velocity measurements. Unique internal circuitry eliminates the need for magnets in the process fluid, enabling flow measurement of 0.1 to 6 m/s (0.3 to 20 ft/s) while maintaining the advantages of insertion sensor design.

bearings and Tungsten Carbide pin provide exceptional wear resistance. The Signet 2540 offers field replaceable electronics and transient voltage suppression (TVS) to provide greater immunity to large voltage disturbances (i.e. lightning) sometimes encountered in field wiring. Sensors can be installed in DN40 to DN600 (1½ to 24 inch) pipes using the 1½ inch or ISO 7/1- R 1.5 threaded process connection. The sensors are also offered in a hot-tap configuration with a bleed valve service without process shutdown in pipes up to DN900 (36 in.). Both styles of sensors must be used in full pipes and can be used in low pressure systems.

• For systems with components of more than one material, the maximum temperature/pressure specification must always be referenced to the com ponent with the lowest rating. • Use the Conduit Adapter Kit to protect the cable-to-sensor connection when used in outdoor environments.
• Sensor electronics can be easily replaced by 3-2541.260-1 or 3-2541.260-2.
