GENERAL INFORMATION
This manual will assist you in installing and maintaining your FLOMEC G-Series
Turbine. For best results, take the time to fully acquaint yourself with all information
about all components of your G-Series Turbine. If you need assistance, contact
the distributor from whom you purchased your turbine.
Product Description
FLOMEC G-Series Turbine flowmeters are volumetric flow measurement devices.
The moving fluid is used to turn a rotor, which is suspended in the flow stream.
The rotating speed of the rotor is proportional to the fluid velocity or flowrate. As
the blades from a spinning rotor pass by a magnetic sensor, an AC voltage pulse
is generated and transmitted to the readout instrument. Each pulse is equal to a
given volume of liquid; therefore “x” number of pulses are equal to a gallon, litre,
pound, barrel, etc.
Turbine Sizing
FLOMEC G-Series Turbines are identified by the internal diameter of the inlet and
outlet.
Model 050 ½ in. (0.6-6.0 GPM)
Model 051 ½ in. (0.8-6.0 GPM)
Model 075 ¾ in. (1.6-16 GPM)
Model 075E ¾ in. (2.3-23 GPM)
Model 100 1 in. (6.7-67 GPM)
Model 150 1½ in. (17.7-177 GPM)
Model 200 2 in. (33-330 GPM)
Turbine flowmeters should be sized in accordance to the actual flowrate and not
the process pipe size. For example, a process having a flowrate of 10-20 GPM in
a 1-½" process line requires either a Model 075E or Model 100 turbine flowmeter.
Another important factor to take into consideration when sizing a turbine flowmeter
is instantaneous flowrate. This is extremely important when sizing a turbine
flowmeter where the volume is measured per hour or per day. For example, an
application where the total output is 500 barrels per day, occurring in a 5-hour
period; the recommended turbine flowmeter should be sized according to the
instantaneous flowrate:
(500 – 5) x 24 or 2,400 barrels per day
Thus, requiring a 1-½ inch turbine flowmeter.

INSTALLATION
Turbine flowmeters are affected by both upstream and downstream process
configurations. Turbine flowmeters should always be installed with a minimum of
10 pipe diameters upstream and 5 pipe diameters downstream. The only exception
is the placement of the pumps, valves, etc., on the upstream end. When this
occurs, 20 diameters of straight pipe should be used. The direction of flow is
indicated by the arrow on the turbine. All turbine flowmeters are designed to
measure flow in only one direction.
Check the items below once the turbine flowmeter is installed in the process line.
This will ensure a successful start-up.
1. Before installing the magnetic sensor, make sure that it is functioning properly.
This can be accomplished by checking the ohm resistance. Refer to Checking
Magnetic Pickup in the Troubleshooting section.
2. If a magnetic pickup enclosure is used on a sanitary turbine, discard the seal
cap that is included with the unit. If no enclosure is used, install the magnetic
pickup and slip the seal cap over the magnetic pickup and threads on the
adapter.
3. Check the interconnection cable between the turbine flowmeter and readout
device. Refer to Checking the Cable Assembly section.
4. Make sure that the new or correct K-factor is entered into the readout device.
NOTE: The K-factor is printed on the turbine body. The calibration report included
with the product provides several points along the flow curve.
Initial Start-Up
Turbine flowmeters can be installed in the horizontal or vertical position. When
installing a turbine flowmeter in the vertical position, it is important that the direction
of flow be up through the turbine flowmeter.
A spool should be installed in place of the turbine flowmeter during initial start-up
of a new process line. The process line should be purged, thus eliminating any
solids contained in the line. Once this is completed, the spool can be removed and
the turbine flowmeter installed.
Whenever possible, use 20 straight pipe diameters upstream and down- stream of
the turbine flowmeter. The length of straight pipe upstream and downstream of the
turbine flowmeter can be reduced with the use of flow straighteners or
straightening vanes. A minimum of 10 straight pipe diameters upstream and 5
downstream are required.
NOTE: Control valves should always be installed downstream of the turbine
flowmeter.
The turbine flowmeter should be installed in a location where the process line will
remain full of liquid at all times. Otherwise, when the process line becomes empty
and a valve is opened, the high velocity fluid hitting the turbine flowmeter rotor can
cause severe damage.

5
When there is entrained air in the process line, an air eliminator should be used.
This entrained air causes air pockets and these air pockets will cause the rotor to
spin at a faster rate than liquid, thus resulting in in- correct readings, which results
in an overstatement of actual flowrate and volume. This condition can damage the
flowmeter.
In process lines where particulates are present, a filter/strainer should be used.
Refer to the table below for the recommended mesh size.

MAINTENANCE
Disassembling the Turbine
1. Disconnect the turbine flowmeter cable from the magnetic pickup. (Refer to
Figure 1.)
2. Remove the magnetic pickup.
3. Ensure that the process line is depressurized and empty prior to removal of the
turbine flowmeter. Remove the turbine flowmeter from the process line.
4. Using a small screwdriver or similar tool, insert it into the radius notch of the
retaining ring, pull away from the groove and up, removing the retaining ring
from one end of the turbine flowmeter. This will allow the support to slide out
of the turbine flowmeter body. Remove the rotor before proceeding to the other
support.
NOTE: To remove the other support, simply repeat this operation.
5. Once the turbine flowmeter is taken apart, inspect the turbine flowmeter body
for signs of wear or defects. The body bore should be smooth and show no
evidence of wear.
NOTE: Do not install a new replacement kit into a turbine flowmeter body that
shows significant signs of wear.
6. Examine the rotor for broken and/or bent blades.
7. Examine the supports for signs of deterioration, such as wear marks and/or
burrs along the outer edge of the support vanes.
8. When the rotor or the supports show any sign of deterioration, a new
replacement kit should be installed. Do not install a new replacement kit into a
defective turbine flowmeter body.

Replacement Kits
A replacement kit is comprised of all the internal component parts within the turbine
flowmeter. A replacement kit consists of the following:
FLOMEC supports are identical in design, thus eliminating assembly error. Each
support incorporates a thrust bearing, which allows for bidirectional flow and
prevents damage to the rotor and/or supports in the event the turbine flowmeter is
installed backwards with respect to the direction of flow.
Notice that the direction of flow is displayed on the body of the turbine flowmeter.
This is important when installing the rotor and also denotes the direction in which
the turbine flowmeter was calibrated.
NOTE: FLOMEC rotors are tapered on one end (except ½" and ¾"). The tapered
end should be installed on the inlet side (see Figure 1). The ½" and ¾"
rotors are marked with a point on the hub and should be installed with the
marked side of the rotor hub on the inlet side.
1. Install a support on the inlet side (where the flow starts), placing a vane
between the notches in the turbine flowmeter body. Install a retaining ring to
keep the support in place.

2. Place the rotor with the shaft in the support that has not been installed. Hold
the turbine flowmeter body with the open end down, and slide the rotor and
support into the turbine flowmeter body. Make sure the vane is placed between
the notches.
3. Once the support is in place, install the retaining ring.
4. Blow into the turbine flowmeter to ensure the rotor spins freely.
NOTE: Installation of the replacement kit is complete and the turbine flowmeter
can be reinstalled into the process line.
5. Install the magnetic pickup. HAND TIGHTEN ONLY.
NOTE: Be sure to use the proper magnetic pickup, cable and connector for the
application.
6. Enter the new K-factor supplied with the replacement kit into the electronic
readout device. (Refer to the calibration report.)
NOTE: All internal replacement kits are factory calibrated and are supplied with a

Magnetic Pickups
FLOMEC offers two types of magnetic pickups: Standard and Wire Lead. (See
Figure 3.)
When choosing a magnetic pickup, the turbine meter and electronics are generally
already known. Electronics can be either Local or Remote. Remote electronics
include FLOMEC Remote Displays or output to customer-supplied equipment.
Follow the next three steps when choosing a magnetic pickup.
1. Select your size: ½ in. or ¾ to 2 in.
2. Choose Local or Remote/Output.
Local uses a wire lead pickup.
Remote/Output requires a connector.
3. Choose either Sine Wave or Square
Wave as your signal type. Sine Wave
does not require external power for the
sensor and can be used with battery-
powered displays. Square Wave means
sensor power is required.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Locating the Problem
To determine the location of the problem, whether it is occurring at the turbine
flowmeter or at the electronic readout device, disconnect the cable assembly from
the magnetic pickup and connect the cable from the portable rate indicator onto
the magnetic pickup. (Refer to Figure 6.)
The portable rate indicator will display the
instantaneous rate of flow through the
turbine flowmeter. If the rate displayed is
equal to the rate of the process, then
both the magnetic pickup and the turbine
flowmeter are operational. The problem
will be located in either the cable
assembly or the electronic readout
device
When there is no rate displayed on the
portable rate indicator, the problem may
be caused by a defective magnetic pickup
or turbine flowmeter.
Checking the Magnetic Pickup
To determine the status of a hermetically sealed, two-wire lead, or standard
magnetic pickup, simply remove it from the turbine flowmeter, and using an ohm
meter, measure the ohm resistance by placing the leads of the ohm meter on each
pin of the magnetic pickup. (Refer to Figure 7.)
If the ohmmeter reads 1400 ohms ±20%,
then the magnetic pickup is good and
should NOT be replaced. If the ohmmeter
reads less than 1000 ohms, install a new
magnetic pickup. DO NOT throw the old
magnetic pickup away. Failure of the
magnetic pickup may have been caused
by moisture trapped inside. In some cases
when the magnetic pickup is allowed to
dry, it has become completely functional
and can be reused. When the ohmmeter
reads in excess of 1700 ohms, the
magnetic pickup is defective and should
be discarded.
NOTE: It is recommended that the ohm resistance be measured before installing
a used magnetic pickup.
Checking the Turbine Flowmeter
Once it has been determined that the magnetic pickup is functional and there is no
output displayed on the portable rate indicator, it can be concluded that the
problem lies within the turbine flowmeter. Remove the turbine flowmeter from the
process line. DO NOT remove the internals at this time.
Hand-held
Indicator

13
Visually inspect the internals of the turbine flowmeter. Check for particulates and/or
foreign objects, which may have lodged between the rotor and the body. In the
event an object is detected, simply remove the retaining ring on the outlet side of
the turbine flowmeter and remove the support and rotor assembly. Once the
turbine flowmeter parts are free from any foreign matter, reassemble.
NOTE: Always ensure that a support vane is installed between the indention marks
on the body.
Upon completion, verify the rotor spins freely, reinstall the turbine flowmeter into
the process line.
If there are no signs of particulates or any other foreign matter obstructing the rotor,
try blowing into the turbine flowmeter. If the rotor does not spin freely, insert a thin
screwdriver or similar tool, gently so as not to damage any of the rotor blades, and
turn the rotor.
There may be another cause for the rotor to drag or stop, such as incorrect bearing
material used for the application. For example, non-compatibility of the bearing
material with the process liquid, bearing material may not withstand the
temperature of the application, etc. When there is uncertainty with respect to the
selection of bearing material for a given application, contact GPI.
Before installing a new replacement kit, inspect the turbine flowmeter body for wear
and damage. By placing your finger inside the turbine flowmeter body, feel for any
signs of wear such as grooves, ridges, irregular spots. If such signs are evident, it
is a strong possibility that the turbine flowmeter body is damaged and the
installation of a new replacement kit is NOT recommended.
When a new replacement kit is installed inside a damaged turbine flowmeter body,
the internals will be ruined after a short period of operation and will have to be
discarded. In the event it is uncertain whether the turbine flowmeter body is
functional, it should be sent to GPI so the I.D. dimension of the turbine flowmeter
body bore can be checked. If it is found to be within tolerance, a new set of internals
will be installed. This will eliminate the possibility of using and/or discarding a
turbine flowmeter that shows signs of wear.
NOTE: A good turbine flowmeter body should have a smooth inner bore free of
wear signs.
If it is determined that the turbine flowmeter body is in good condition, install a
new replacement kit and reinstall the turbine flowmeter into the process line.
Checking the Cable Assembly
This can be accomplished with the aid of a frequency oscillator. Simply plug the
cable assembly with the mating connector end that is located at the turbine
flowmeter into the frequency oscillator. The frequency oscillator will simulate the
output of a turbine flowmeter. If an output is displayed on the electronic readout
device, then the cable assembly is good.
In the event an output is not displayed, disconnect the frequency oscillator from
the cable assembly and connect the cable supplied with the frequency oscillator
directly to the electronic readout device, the same as you would a turbine
flowmeter cable assembly. (Refer to Figure 8.)

14
When the frequency oscillator is
connected and an output is displayed on
the electronic readout device, this
indicates that the turbine flowmeter cable
assembly is defective and should be
replaced. If no output is displayed, the
turbine flowmeter cable assembly is good
and the problem lies within the electronic
readout device.
Checking the Electronics
Using the frequency oscillator and the cable that is supplied, connect it to the
electronic readout device, the same as you would a turbine flowmeter cable
assembly. Once the frequency oscillator is connected, if no output is displayed on
the electronic readout device, check to ensure that the power is on, the fuses are
good, and the correct K-factor is dialed/programmed into the electronic readout
device. After verification of these items, if there is still no output displayed and/or
registered, then the manufacturer of the electronic readout device should be
consulted.
