Overview:

The precision-engineered KOBOLD DPL All-Plastic Paddle Wheel Flow Sensor delivers reliable measurement of transparent liquids with flow rates up to 400 GPH, making it ideal for applications where chemical compatibility and cost-effectiveness are essential. Featuring a compact design that integrates seamlessly into space-constrained installations like the interior of larger systems, this versatile transmitter uses non-contact optoelectronic sensing to convert rotary paddle wheel motion into proportional frequency signals. KOBOLD USA With all wetted components constructed from synthetic materials including polypropylene housing, polysulfone vane mount, and sapphire axle/bearing, the DPL provides exceptional resistance to aggressive chemicals while maintaining measurement accuracy in harsh environments. Available with multiple output options including frequency signal or analog output, this flow sensor offers flexible integration capabilities for monitoring and control applications across industrial, commercial, and laboratory settings. Operating at pressures up to 145 PSI and temperatures to 160°F, the DPL combines American manufacturing quality with innovative design elements like sapphire-supported vanes that ensure high linearity and extended service life in critical fluid handling systems.
