MDS-CL Series Positive Displacement Gear Flowmeter

-Overview-

MDS-CL Series Gear Flowmeter is a positive displacement flow meter. It operates by using the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet as liquid passes through the chamber, driving a pair of precision gears to mesh and rotate. This splits the fluid into metered volumes of known standard size and counts them sequentially, achieving high-precision total volume measurement. A built-in non-contact sensor detects the gear rotation to generate pulse signals, which are digitally processed to output a square wave. The flowmeter can be used with PLCs, display instruments, or wireless remote transmission modules to display instantaneous flow and cumulative flow.

This series of flowmeters can be installed horizontally or vertically, requiring a full pipe, bubble-free conditions, and stable pressure. The product supports multiple output methods, including 4-20mA, RS485 (Modbus-RTU protocol), pulse, and switch alarm outputs. It is equipped with an LCD and supports on-site parameter configuration (such as range, damping time, upper/lower limit alarms, linear correction, etc.). Power supply options are flexible, with an internal lithium battery or an external DC24V available. It also features reverse polarity protection and an electrical isolation design.

The MDS-CL series is suitable for flow measurement of clean liquids. It requires low maintenance and provides a stable, reliable metering solution in industries such as chemical, energy, and water treatment.

-Benefits & Features-

1. High-precision measurement using a precision gear and volumetric chamber structure that divides the fluid into known standard volumes and counts them sequentially. Repeatability up to 0.1%.
2. Supports horizontal or vertical installation, requiring a full pipe with no air bubbles. Adaptable to atmospheric or high-pressure pipelines with flexible sealing options. A bypass can be added for easy maintenance.
3. Equipped with an LCD for clear viewing of instantaneous flow rate, totalized flow, and other parameters. Supports multiple outputs: 4-20 mA, RS485 (Modbus-RTU), pulse, and switch alarm.
4. Menu-configurable parameters include instantaneous flow units, range, damping time, high/low limit alarms, and linear correction. Password protection prevents unauthorized parameter changes.
5. Can be powered by an internal lithium battery with low average power consumption; automatically switches to external DC24V when connected. Features reverse polarity protection and electrical isolation for enhanced field reliability.
6. Gears can be disassembled for cleaning to resolve foreign object jamming. Signal lines support shielded cables. Electrical interfaces include explosion-proof connectors and shock impact protection, suitable for complex operating conditions.
