VOLUME FLOW MEASURING ELEMENT - HELICAL GEAR
Definition
A <VOLUME FLOW MEASURING ELEMENT - HELICAL GEAR> is a <VOLUME FLOW MEASURING ELEMENT - GEAR> that is a flow meter that gets its name from the shape of its gears or rotors. These rotors resemble the shape of a helix, which is a spiral-shaped structure. As the fluid flows through the meter, it enters the compartments in the rotors, causing the rotors to rotate. Flowrate is calculated from the speed of rotation
