Blue-white rb-300s4-gpm1 Flow Meter 60-600 Gpm 3 Inch

Product Description

The BLUE-WHITE INDUSTRIES rb-300s4-gpm1 is a paddlewheel flow meter designed for saddle-mount installation on 3-inch Schedule 40 pipe. Part of the F-1000 series, this unit measures liquid flow rate in the 60-600 GPM range with an accuracy of plus or minus 2 percent. The body is constructed from PVDF with Viton O-rings, rated to 300 psig at 70 degrees F and a maximum temperature of 200 degrees F at 0 psi. The meter ships factory calibrated with a 6-digit LCD display and requires no programming out of the box. It is battery-operated using two AAA batteries, which are included. Licensed plumbers, water treatment technicians, and industrial pipe fitters are the typical installers.

This flow meter is suited for liquid flow monitoring applications in commercial plumbing, water treatment, chemical dosing, and irrigation systems where a non-intrusive saddle-mount installation is preferred. The PVDF body and Viton O-rings make it compatible with a range of chemically aggressive liquids. The RB model variant provides rate-only display output. The weather-resistant NEMA 4X ABS enclosure allows installation in wet or outdoor environments, though the LCD is not recommended for direct sunlight exposure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipe fitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes. Shut off flow and depressurize the line before mounting the saddle body or disturbing any fittings. Verify the pipe outside diameter matches the saddle specifications before final torque of mounting hardware. The LCD display should not be positioned where it receives direct sunlight, as this can impair readability.
