The Badger Meter® Turbo/Butterfly Valve water batching system is designed to control and measure the water batching process in concrete batch plants, block plants, pre-stress concrete batch plants or wherever there is a need for water batching. Our reliable Industrial Turbine Meter, with either an unscaled pulse transmitter or an electronic scalable transmitter, combined with a solenoid controlled air operated butterfly valve creates a water batching system that provides accurate and dependable service in all types of batch plant environments. The batching system can be specified with either a scaled pulse transmitter for use with the CB-20 Batch Controller for semi-automatic batching or an electronic scalable transmitter for use in fully automated plants.

The Turbo meter is compact in size and is easy to service without removing the meter from the lines. Available in four line sizes (2", 3", 4" and 6") for up to 2000 gpm (7570 lpm), the system provides a high level of accuracy over a wide flow range with a minimum of pressure loss. Its unique straight-through flow profile and ceramic bearing design optimize performance and accuracy.

The solenoid controlled air operated butterfly valve permits higher flows at lower pressure loss. The valve requires a 60 psi minimum air supply to operate. Included with the valve is a speed control to adjust the closing speed of the valve, which assists in the reduction of water hammer.

Features:
• Long lasting ceramic bearings
• Simple in-line serviceability
• Low pressure loss
• Positive ON and OFF control fail-safe with power loss
• Helps reduce water hammer
• Easy (ON JOB) calibration without gears or special tools
• Complete tested assembly ready to install in line
• Manual override on 4-way solenoid valve
