The RCM Flo-Gage™ is a direct reading flow meter with a large, easy to read dial calibrated in engineering units (GPM, SCFM, l/min, etc.). The Flo-Gage™
measures flow based on a pressure differential created across a built-in calibrated nozzle. The meter is self-contained and complete. It does not require external power connections, separate orifices, or blocking, purging or equalizing valves. The Flo-Gage™ is suitable for measuring water, oil and most other low viscosity liquids which do not deposit out and which are compatible with the materials of construction. The Flo-Gage™ is also suitable for measuring compressed air, oxygen, carbon dioxide and many other nontoxic compressed gases. (Specify option I.) Saturated steam can also be measured up to 120 psig. (Option K).
The Flo-Gage™ can be fitted with a two-wire transmitter to provide a current output for remote indication, recording or totalization, or with reed switch contacts for signaling high or low flows.
Features:
-
Sturdy in-line metal construction to withstand piping stresses without breaking
-
Black on white dial won't crack, glaze or become hard to read with age
-
Expanded 3.5 " (90 mm) 270 analog dial for reading at a glance
-
Suitable for use with both opaque and clear fluids
-
Measures 6:1 range with 3% F.S. accuracy
-
Dial and case factory configured for quick installation - but easily field re-configured if needed
-
Liquid flow ranges from 4 GPH (15 l/h) in 1/2" meter to 3000 GPM (12000 l/m) in 8" meter
-
Gas flow ranges from 40 SCFH (1 Nm3/h) in 1/2" meter to 20,000 SCFM (600 Nm3/m) in 8" meter
Proper flow of cutting oil is essential to machining operations. Automatic machines which run unattended require monitoring of the flow of cutting fluids. The gage allows quick setting of the proper flow rate. The low flow switch can stop machines before bad parts are produced or equipment damaged.. |
Flo-Gages are ideal for measuring lube-oil. They do not require that the oil be transparent to be measured. Low flow switches can add additional protection. |
Monitor correct cooling flow to machinery. Protect valuable equipment by using a low flow switch to shut down machinery before damage. The Flo-GageTM will not foul with small debris frequently found in cooling systems. Fouling which can cause typical flow switches to stick and fail to detect low flow conditions. |
