The Neptune High Performance (HP) Turbine is designed
for applications where the flow is consistently moderate to high.
Each Neptune HP Turbine water meter consists of a rugged
bronze maincase, an AWWA Class II turbine measuring element, and a roll-sealed
register.
The bronze maincase is corrosion resistant, lightweight
and compact. Inlet and outlet connections are flanged. Neptune strainers
are available to prevent debris from entering the meter, and to reduce
the effects of uneven water flow due to upstream piping variations.
The Unitized Measuring Element (UME) allows for quick,
easy, in-line interchangeability. Water volume is measured accurately at
all flows by a specially designed assembly. Self-lubricating bearings provide
equalized rotor loading for accuracy over a broad flow range. The thrust
compensated rotor configuration relieves pressure on the thrust bearings
which minimizes wear and provides sustained accuracy over an extended operating
life. Direct coupling of the rotor to the gear train eliminates revenue
loss due to slippage during fast starts and line surges. A calibration
vane allows in-field calibration of the UME to lengthen service life and
to ensure accurate registration.
Neptune HP Turbine water meters offer the widest flow
range of any turbine meters on the market. All Neptune HP Turbine water
meters meet or exceed the latest performance and accuracy requirements
of AWWA C701 and maximum continuous flow rates may be exceeded by as much
as 25% for intermittent periods. |
