Types of Variable Area Flowmeters (Rotameters)
TYPES OF ROTAMETERS AND THEIR USES
Glass Tube Purge Meters
10A6130 Glass Tube Purge and Low Flow Meters
An ideal choice for low flow rate applications, such as purging
control lines and instrument enclosures. The PURGEMASTER is excellent
for fluid sampling, liquid specific gravity, level measurements
and many other low flow applications of liquids and gases.
Used for low flow measurements, purging, level measurements and fluid sampling systems.
The 10A6130 Glass tube purgemeter (Lengths 1 ½, 3, 5,
10") with ¼ " NPT connections features snap-in tube and
protective shield, ball check valve, needle valve at inlet or outlet.
Optional alarms & constant flow regulator are available
Used for low flow measurements, purging, level measurements and fluid sampling systems.
10A4500 Glass Tube Flow Meters
Used for measuring a wide variety of liquids and gases in most industrial and municipal facilities.
Monitors natural gas flows into ovens and furnaces, cooling fluids to protect equipment, sampling systems in laboratories and flow rates
into and out of large tanks.
The 10A4500 Glass tube rotameter
(Sizes ½, ¾, 1, 1½, 2") is available with NPT or flanged connections,
features snap-in tube and protective shield
Optional alarms are available
10A2235 Glass tube rotameter - RATOSIGHT
Used for automatic shut-down of heavy equipment when bearing lubricant flow becomes too low, shut-down
of electrical equipment when cooling water flow falls below a preset limit, or the actuation of auxiliary equipment such as pump motor
starters or solenoid valves.
The 10A2235 Glass tube rotameter - RATOSIGHT (Sizes 1/4, 3/4, 1, 2") comes with NPT threads and unique
piping arrangements, hollow bronze body.
Optional alarms
10A3200 Armored purgemeter
Suitable for most low flow, high pressure and corrosive applications in municipal and industrial settings.
Used for gas analyzer systems, various sampling systems, and situations where glass tubes are not appropriate for safety reasons. Used
for variety of low flow, high pressure applications, gas analyzers and sampling systems.
The 10A3200 Armored purgemeter (Sizes ¼, ⅜, ½, 1") comes with NPT threads
Integral needle valve option on ¼ size.
Optional alarms and 4-20 ma transmitter.
Armored Purge Meters
FAM54 Flanged Armored Rotameter
Used for measuring aggressive, opaque, non-conductive fluids typically in chemical, petrochemical,
pharmaceutical industries in high pressure applications
The FAM54 Armored rotameter (Sizes ½, 1, 2, 3,4") with flanged connections. It can be ordered with optional
alarms, transmitter, configurable digital display, totalized pulse
output and HART communications.
Available as a metal tube meter, a PTFE lined meter or a heat traced meter for temperature sensitive
fluids.
