Page 4 of 27
Introduction
These Installation and Operating Instructions serve as a tool
for the correct installation, operation and maintenance of the
device. They are a supplement to the TSK Device
Description. Read the manual carefully before the device is
installed and put into use. It does not include special
versions or applications.
All devices are thoroughly checked for order compliance and
operability before delivery. Upon receipt, please conduct a
visual inspection of possible damage that may be identified
as having occurred during shipment. If you discover any
defect, please contact our head office in Cologne or the local
sales office responsible for your area (see the telephone
directory at the end of this manual or on our Web site).
Apart from a description of the error, we will need the
equipment type and serial number of the delivery.
Heinrichs Messtechnik shall not furnish guarantee for any
repair work done without prior notice. Unless otherwise
agreed on, the rejected parts must be made available to us
in case a claim is made.

2 Applications
The TSK meter is suitable for flow measurement of liquid
products in pipes.
The special advantage is that it can be
used for all directions of flow. It shows the current flow
rate in volume or mass per unit in time.
Applications: flow measurement, dosing, monitoring,
adjusting and control of liquid and gaseous products.
The meter’s design makes it ideal for processes under
difficult and adverse operating conditions.
The devices are available with additional electrical
equipment for process monitoring and control.
3 Operational mode and system design
3.1 Measuring principle
If a medium flows with sufficient velocity through the
horizontally or vertically arranged measuring chamber (1) if
the TSK fitting, the paddle (2) will swivel around the axle until
the force of the medium and the opposing force of the
paddle surface plus the spring tension establish equilibrium.
The angular position or the position of equilibrium ( ) of the
paddle (2) in the measuring chamber (1) is the measure for
the flow. The encapsulated ring-type permanent magnet (4)
at the end of the paddle axis (3) then transmits this position
to the scale (6) and the optional electronic evaluators
through the magnet tracking indicator (5) system. This
happens safely and without packing glands.
The flow rates shown on the scale only apply to the
calibrated medium or to a medium with the same physical
characteristics.
3.2 System design
The TSK flowmeter mainly consists of the fitting with the
measuri
ng chamber, the measuring elements “torsion spring”
and “paddle,” the magnet tracking indicator system and the
indicator unit.
The flowmeter is manufactured as a sandwich-type
construction and available for the nominal sizes from DN 50
to DN 400.
