The Choice Is Clear When Selecting A Turbine Flow Meter; It's Onicon.


Onicon, Inc. has delivered market leading energy and flow measurement products for over 30 years.  In that time, they’ve created a broad range of product solutions for a variety of HVAC technologies including electromagnetic, ultrasonic, thermal, turbine and vortex style flow meters as well BTU energy meters for flow inputs integration.

Onicon designs these measurement instruments for both hydronic heating and cooling systems.  And their products are backed by a 1-year no fault warranty and 3-year manufacturer warranty. 

Let’s take a moment to spotlight the Onicon F-1000 Series.  It’s a family of inline and insertion style turbine flow meters providing reliable and accurate flow measurement.  All models utilize an electronic turbine rotation sensing system, accurate across wide flow ranges and contain exceptional low flow measuring capabilities. These turbine flow meters were created to work in pipe size ranges from ¾” to 72” in diameter.  There a number of processes where turbine flow is measured including hot water, chilled water, domestic water, process cooling, condensate water, steam condensate and brine.

The design of the F-1000 series uses components that make it nearly wear-free.


Benefits and Features of the Onicon F-1000 Series include:

  • High Accuracy: On every meter, a NIST traceable factory calibration is performed. 
  • Unparalleled Operating Range:  flow data is repeatable over a 175:1 turndown from 0.17 to 30 ft/s.
  • Dependable Long-term Reliability: with patented non-magnetic impedance sensing method, low mass non-metallic turbines that include sapphire jewel bearings, and tungsten carbide shafts, these meters boast a mechanical operation that virtually does not wear.
  • Integrated Conditioned Outputs: Ease of installation is maintained by integral conditioned output circuitry.  Models with analog output consist of both 4-20 mA and 0-10 VDC signaling. Also available are isolated analog, frequency, and dry contact switch options.
  • Abridged “Hot Tap” Insertion Design: The Onicon F-1000 series enlists a unique hot tap design that doesn’t require a system shutdown for installation/removal.  

The choice is clear.  If you have a system requirement for a turbine flow meter, it’s Onicon.

See our selection of Belimo electronic pressure independant control valves (ePIV) at e-controls.net


No manual balancing valves are needed when using Belimo electronic pressure independent control valves (ePIV)

The ePIV by Belimo directly measures flow by combining a flow meter and a 2-way control valve. The actuator has a powerful algorithm that modulates the control valve to maintain the exact flow based on the control signal set by the DDC Controller. The flow reading is reported back to the controller using a standard signal, and this value can be used by the Building Automation System to perform advanced control and energy strategies.  The ePIV can be used to regulate flow through air handlers, heating and cooling coils, fan coil units, unit ventilators and VAV re-heat coils.
Other features include:
  • Predictable flow throughout valve travel eliminates over-pumping and provides favorable energy savings.
  • Equal percentage flow characteristic leads to system controlability.
  • Prevents energizing additional chillers by maintaining desired Delta T
