Design Features
- Easily Installed: Unit mounts directly in vertical
pipe line. Indicator case can be positioned 3600
around meter body for best viewing angle.
- Less Down Time: Through-flow design prevents
float-restricting buildup of dirt or process fluid. Snap-in retainer ring permits easy disassembly for
cleaning.
- No Seals to Leak: Due to one-piece construction
of seamless stainless steel tubing.

Sizing
For sizing flowmeters with type 316 stainless steel
floats when the required flow is of liquid (density 1.0
g/cc), or of gas (sp gr of air and at 14.7 psia and 70 F or 101.3 kFa abs and 21
C) the capacity table may be entered directly.
