1. A fluid flow sensor assembly adapted for measuring in-line fluid velocity, comprising:

  • a fluid obstruction member, said obstruction member comprising an elongated arcuate appendage extending outwardly from a distal end of the obstruction member;

    an indicator lid assembly, said indicator lid assembly having an arcuate configuration forming an arcuate protruding upper portion, and comprises a rim and a receiver pocket adapted for receiving at least a portion of the arcuate appendage; and

    wherein said fluid obstruction member is attached to the indicator lid assembly via a rotatable shaft, wherein the fluid obstruction member is pivotable about the shaft in a manner such that the elongated arcuate appendage moves in an arcuate path inside the indicator lid assembly, wherein the rim of the indicator lid assembly is adapted to attach to an aperture in a pipe line.
