Working Principle
Paddle wheel flow instrument working principle diagram

The working principle of a paddle wheel flow instrument is essentially a closed-loop control system. As fluid flows through the pipe, it drives the paddle wheel to rotate. The sensor detects the rotation speed of the paddle wheel and converts it into an electrical signal, which is then calculated to obtain the flow rate. The controller receives the flow rate data and compares it with the preset target flow rate. If it detects that the flow rate deviates from the set value, the control unit will adjust the operation of the control valve or pump to increase or decrease the fluid flow rate. The adjusted flow rate is then detected by the sensor again, forming a continuous feedback loop to ensure the stability and accuracy of the flow rate.
