Abstract

See full text

A flow meter includes two parts, a flow unit which can be fitted between fluid pipes and a detection unit snapped on the flow unit. The flow unit has a housing which accommodates a measuring chamber in which there is a rotating measuring ball. The detection unit is snapped on the measuring chamber and has a C-shaped housing part. Inside the housing part there is a printed circuit board which is also C-shaped and is present at a distance from the inner wall of the housing part. When the detection unit is snapped on the measuring chamber, the ends of the housing part will be bent outward. As a result of the clearance between the inner wall of the housing part and the printed circuit board and the fact that the housing part is slidable relative to the printed circuit board, the printed circuit board is not bent.
