BLANCETT

Blancett is a manufacturer of turbine flowmeters and related flow-measurement instrumentation, with a product history rooted in the industrial flow-control market. The brand is known for its B110 and B111 series inline turbine flowmeters, which are used to measure the volumetric flow of oils and water in piping systems. These meters operate on a mechanical turbine principle: fluid passing through the meter rotates a stainless steel rotor, and the rotational speed is converted into a standard frequency pulse output proportional to flow rate. This pulse output can be fed to a variety of receivers, including flow computers, batch controllers, and PLCs, making the meters suitable for integration into existing control and monitoring systems. The B110 and B111 series are available in a range of line sizes and connection types, including NPT, FNPT, and flange connections from 1/2 inch up to 10 inches. Accuracy is typically stated as +/-1% of reading across the series, and the meters are constructed with stainless steel rotors for compatibility with oils and water. The product family includes models such as the B110-750, B110-750-1/2, B110-875, B110-375-1/2, B111-120, B111-160, B111-200, and B311-084, each differing in connection size and type. These meters are commonly used in applications where direct-reading mechanical meters are impractical or where remote flow indication and totalization are required. Typical application categories include fuel and oil transfer, lubrication systems, hydraulic test stands, water treatment, and general industrial fluid monitoring. The meters are designed for inline installation and require straight pipe runs upstream and downstream to maintain accuracy, as is standard for turbine flowmeter technology. Blancett flowmeters are often paired with signal conditioners, rate/totalizers, or flow monitors to provide local display or to interface with plant control systems. 3G Electric supplies the Blancett line as part of its industrial-equipment catalog, offering the B110 and B111 series meters in the connection sizes and configurations listed in the product data. The catalog includes specification details such as connection type and size, accuracy, pulse rate, and minimum flow rate, allowing technical buyers to match the meter to their flow range and piping requirements. 3G Electric supports the line by providing access to these models, along with related documentation and specification data, for procurement and engineering evaluation. For plant engineers and maintenance managers, the key selection factors for Blancett turbine meters include line size, connection type, flow range, fluid compatibility, and the requirements of the receiving instrumentation. The standard frequency pulse output is a simple square-wave signal that can be scaled to engineering units by a flow monitor or controller. Because the meters have no external power requirement for the sensing element, they are often used in hazardous or remote locations when paired with an appropriate intrinsically safe or explosion-proof signal conditioner. The stainless steel rotor and body materials provide resistance to corrosion in many oil and water applications, though chemical compatibility should always be verified for the specific fluid. Blancett meters are also used in mobile equipment, fuel dispensing, and test benches where compact inline measurement is needed. The B111 series, with flange connections, is typically chosen for larger line sizes where flanged piping is standard, while the B110 series with NPT or FNPT connections is used in smaller lines. The B311-084 model, with a 4-inch NPT connection, falls into the larger end of the threaded-connection range. Overall, Blancett turbine flowmeters provide a mechanical, pulse-output solution for liquid flow measurement, and 3G Electric lists these products with the technical specifications needed for selection and procurement.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about BLANCETT from 3G Electric.

What is the accuracy specification for Blancett B110 and B111 turbine flowmeters?

Blancett B110 and B111 series inline turbine flowmeters are specified with an accuracy of +/-1% of reading. This applies across the series, including models such as the B110-750, B110-875, B111-120, and B111-200. Accuracy is typically based on the meter being installed with the recommended straight pipe runs upstream and downstream, and with fluid viscosity within the meter's rated range. For critical applications, calibration certificates may be available; consult the product documentation for specific model calibration data.

What types of connections are available on Blancett inline turbine flowmeters?

Blancett inline turbine flowmeters are available with several connection types. The B110 series includes models with 1/2-inch NPT, 1-inch NPT, and 2-inch FNPT connections. The B111 series includes models with flange connections in sizes such as 6 inches and 10 inches. The B311-084 model has a 4-inch NPT connection. Connection type and size determine the maximum flow rate and pressure rating, so selection should be based on the piping system and required flow range.

What is the output signal from a Blancett turbine flowmeter?

Blancett turbine flowmeters provide a standard frequency pulse output. The pulse rate is proportional to the flow rate, and the meter generates a square-wave signal that can be received by flow monitors, rate/totalizers, PLCs, or flow computers. The pulse rate varies by model; for example, the B110-750 has a pulse rate of 3,300 pulses per unit volume. This output allows for remote totalization and rate indication without additional transmitters.

What fluids are Blancett B110 and B111 flowmeters suitable for?

Blancett B110 and B111 inline turbine flowmeters are designed for measuring oils and water. The stainless steel rotor provides compatibility with many petroleum-based fluids and water-based solutions. However, chemical compatibility should be verified for the specific fluid, temperature, and concentration. The meters are not intended for use with fluids that contain significant particulate matter or that are highly viscous, as these can affect accuracy and rotor operation. Consult the product data for pressure and temperature limits.

How do I select the correct Blancett turbine flowmeter for my application?

Selection of a Blancett turbine flowmeter involves matching the line size and connection type to the piping, and choosing a model with a flow range that covers the expected minimum and maximum flow rates. The B110 series with NPT or FNPT connections is used in smaller lines, while the B111 series with flange connections is used in larger lines. The minimum flow rate must be considered to ensure the meter operates within its specified accuracy. The pulse output must be compatible with the receiving instrumentation. 3G Electric lists the relevant specifications for each model to assist with selection.

What is the difference between the Blancett B110 and B111 series?

The Blancett B110 and B111 series are both inline turbine flowmeters for oils and water, but they differ primarily in connection type and size range. The B110 series includes models with NPT and FNPT connections, typically in sizes from 1/2 inch to 2 inches. The B111 series includes models with flange connections, such as 6-inch and 10-inch flanges, for larger line sizes. Both series provide a standard frequency pulse output and +/-1% accuracy. The choice between them depends on the piping system and flow range.
