- Hermetically sealed register (coppercan/mineral glass envelope)
- Patended ball pivot
- Patended turbine levitation
Wide Measuring Range
- Flostar M is single jet meter available in sizes from DN 40 to DN 150
- Its metrological performances far exceed ISO/EEC class C standards
- Its low accuracy range combined with significant peak flow capacity ensure complete and efficient measurement whatever thr faced flow-rates
Reability
Flostar M features a direct magnetic transmission between the turbine and the register without any intermediate gearing in the matered water.
This results in a very robust and reliable design able to withstand most types of potable water environments
Ease of read in the toughest humid environment is secured by hermetically sealed IP68 register (copper can/mineral glass envelope0
Simple and effective
Simple but highly engineed materials and design enable a very long durabulity and the best performances for water matering
Endurances and Peak Resistance
Performance over time is a key requirement for efficient billing flostar M features a patended turbine ball pivoting enhancing endurance at flow rates. Hydrodynamic balance and turbine design bring resistance at high and peak flows.
Working Principle
Flostar M is a single jet meter. The water jet is canalized by an injector before hitting the turbine. The single jet tapered injector staighten the flow profile. Its large bore area prevents meter overspeed by clogging.
The high precision design of the inlet
- Allows flostar M to meet best accuracy without the need for any by pass or calibration vane adjusment system. The turbine movement is durectly transmitted to the extra dry register through a magnetic coupling
- Without the need for any intermediate gearing in the metered water. This allows flostar M to conserve its initial accuracy over time, under the most demanding service conditions of potable water networks. High quality material for the turbine bearings and patended ball pivot.
- Design allows detections of leakages initially and over time regardless of the flow profile. The hermetically sealed copper can/mineral glass enveloppe of the IP68 register
- Is safeguarding the read and integrity of the indicator in the toughest environments (flooded pits, mechanical tampering attempts)
Communications : Ready For Smart Matering
Flostar M is Supplied Pre-Equipped With Cyble Target
Allows communications and remote reading trought :
- Pulse ouput (Cyble Sensor)
- M-Bus Protocol (Cyble M-Bus)
- Radio Frequency Wireless Link (Cyble RF)
These cyble modules allow the flostar M meter to be connected with various associated system like our supervision system water mind. They are particularly adapter to commercial and industrial applications where a need for frequent meter monitoring is expressed especially in hard-to-real locations.
Key Advantages of Cyble Technology
- No need for additional investment on the meter to implement remote reading
- Itron standarized meter interface, irrespective of meter technology and widely spread on itron water meters range
- Reliability brought by electronic switch (no wear or bouncing)
- Reverse flow management
- Principle proven on the field with 1 25 years experience
- Pre-equipment being immune to magnetic tampering
