Features and Benefits
- Low flow accuracy
- Peak flow capacity
- High engineed materials
- Single jet class C
- Heretically sealed register (coppercan/mineral glass envelope)
- Patended ball pivot
- Patended turbine levitation
Wide Measuring Range
- Flostar M is a 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 what ever the faced flow-rates
Reliability
Flostar M featured a direct magnetic transmission between the turbine and the register without intermediate gearing in the metered 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 environments is secured by hermetically sealed IP68 register (copper can.mineral glass envelope)
Simple and Effective
Simple but high engieened materials and desigm enable a very long durability 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 enchancing endurance at flow rates. Hydrodynamic balance and turbine design bring resistance at high and peak flows.
Working Principles
Flostar M is a single jet meter. The water jet is canalized by an injector before hitting the turbine. The single jet tapered injecor staightens 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 directly transmitted to the extra dry register trough a magnetic coupling.
- Without the need for any intermediate gearing in the matered water. This allows flostar M to conserve its initial accuracy over time, under the most demanding service conditions of potable water network. High quality material for the turbine bearings and patended ball pivot.
- Design allows detection of leakages initially and over time regardless of the flow profiles. The hermatically sealed copper can/mineral glass envelope of the IP68 register.
- Is safeguarding the read and integrity of the toughest environment (fooded pits, mechanical tampering attempts)
Communication : Ready For Smart Matering
Flostar M Is Supplied Pre-Equipped With Cyble Target.
Allows communications and remote reading through
- Pulse output (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 adapted to comercial 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 standardrized meter inteface, irrespective of meter technology and widely spread on itron water meters range
- Reliability brough by electronic switch (no wear or bouncing)
- Reverse flow management
- Principle proven on the field with a 25 years experience
- Pre-equipment being immune to magnetic tampering
