Small liquid lines, such as chemical injection, additive dosing and sample streams, can carry flows too low for most meters to read well. The Barton 7283 is a 3/8" turbine meter listed for 0.5-5 US GPM, making it suitable for this type of low-flow duty.

A turbine flow meter places a balanced rotor in the liquid stream. Flow turns the rotor at a speed proportional to the flow rate, while a pickup coil on the meter body senses each passing blade tip and produces a pulse signal. Counting the pulses gives volume, and their frequency gives flow rate. The rotor is the only moving part.

The Barton 7283 belongs to Barton's Model 7200 line, which covers 3/8" to 3" meters. Model 7200 meters use self-lubricating precision stainless steel ball bearings with dry-lubricant-impregnated ball separators, suited to low-flow, small-line duty. Barton's 7000 series uses a symmetrical bidirectional design, allowing it to measure flow in either direction where capacities are the same both ways.

Barton's published series data gives linearity of ±1% of reading over the flow range for meters smaller than 1 inch and repeatability of ±0.02% of reading. For accurate results, install the meter in straight pipe of the same diameter, with at least 10 pipe diameters of straight run upstream. Confirm materials, pressure rating and electronics against the Barton datasheet and your process before ordering.

Who This Product Is Best For

• Chemical injection and additive dosing lines

• Low-flow hydrocarbon and process liquid measurement

• Small-bore production and process lines

• Sample streams requiring liquid flow measurement

• Replacing an existing small-bore Barton 7000 meter

How to Specify & Install It

1. Check that your normal and maximum flow fall within 0.5-5 US GPM and that your liquid is suitable for a turbine flow meter.

2. Install the meter in straight pipe of the same diameter, with at least 10 diameters of straight run upstream, as specified by Barton.

3. Connect the pickup coil output to a compatible flow computer or readout and configure the system as required.

4. Confirm the meter materials, pressure rating and electronic configuration against the Barton datasheet and your process before ordering.

5. Verify the installation and flow direction requirements before putting the meter into service.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a turbine flow meter work?
Liquid turns a balanced rotor, while a pickup coil senses each blade and produces pulses in proportion to flow.

Which liquids suit the Barton 7283?
Barton's 7000 series is designed for low-viscosity liquids, including hydrocarbon liquids. Confirm viscosity and material compatibility before ordering.

How accurate is the Barton 7283?
Barton's series data gives linearity of ±1% of reading over the flow range for meters smaller than 1 inch and repeatability of ±0.02% of reading.

Does the meter need straight pipe?
Yes. Barton specifies straight pipe of the same diameter with at least 10 diameters upstream for accurate operation.

Should I choose the 7283 or another size?
Size the meter to your actual flow rather than simply matching the pipe size. The 7283 is listed for 0.5-5 US GPM. For higher flows, consider the Barton 7284. Contact General Tech to confirm the suitable model.

Can it measure reverse flow?
The 7000 series has a symmetrical bidirectional design, and electronic options can sense flow direction.

Is genuine Barton stock available with UAE shipping?
Yes. Genuine Barton stock ships free across the UAE. Call +971 6 5436933 for current pricing and lead time.
