Metalex Paddlewheel Flow Sensor 525 Series
Description
The Signet 525 Metalex Paddlewheel Flow Sensor combines stainless steel construction with insertion paddlewheel technology. The result is a highly reliable sensor suitable for operation at extreme pressures and temperatures. The Tungsten Carbide shaft and Rulon® B (Fluoroloy B/PTFE) bearing provides excellent wear resistance for extended service.

*Model 525 Ordering Notes
1) Each sensor option is used with a different fitting based on pipe size. 2) Fittings must be ordered separately. 3) See fittings section for more information.
• Use the Conduit Adapter Kit to protect the cable-to-sensor connection when used in outdoor environments. See Accessories section. • Use the Socket Weld or Weld-on Mini-Tap fittings for sensor installation in pres sures up to 1500 psi (103 bar).
• The 525 can be used in intrinsically safe areas using an approved barrier between the sensor and instrument.
