Platon Safety Housed GU VA Flow Meter | DS1111

Platon Safety Housed GU VA Flow Meter - Overview

Type GU are glass tube Variable Area Flowmeters for the direct display of liquid or gas flow rate. It has a robust rigid frame which is suitable for mounting directly into plant pipework, protecting the glass tube from pipework stress and random plant damage. The safety Perspex window gives good flow visibility whilst protecting the operator. A safety blowout disc on the rear of the housing provides a relief vent for process fluids, in case of glass tube damage. Glass tube VA flowmeters are simple and reliable in operation, and instantaneous in response. They offer flow visualisation to the operator, and the float rotation confirms correct meter performance. Standard tubes and floats offer low line pressure loss and a high resolution 100mm linear scale, fused into the glass tube. Fluid flows vertically upward through the tapered glass tube which causes the float to rise to an equilibrium position. Flow rate is measured on the scale of the flow tube, along the top edge of the float. The borosilicate glass tubes are individually scaled according to customers' requirements, and individually flow calibrated.

Platon Safety Housed GU VA Flow Meter - Features
