Notes:
1. Stated specifications are based on water at 60°F, with a specific gravity of 1.0 and a
viscosity of 1.0 centistokes.
2. Meters should be adequately protected from pressure pulsations and excessive
surges.
3. Generally, the PT Turbine should not be used in continuous service from the normal
maximum to the extended maximum flow rates. Consult Daniel Measurement
engineers for proper sizing and consideration.
4. All specifications are subject to change without notice as part of a continuing
program of product improvement.
5. Bi-directional meters have a linear flow range as stated in one direction of flow. The
minimum linear flow rate in the reverse direction is 20% of its normal maximum
linear flow rate.
