Dwyer Instruments Inc.HF Series Inline Flow Monitor

Dwyer HF Series Flow Monitor
  • For Air, Water or Caustic Fluids. 
  • Ranges from 2-22 SCFM, 0.5-35 GPM.
  • Maximum pressures from 600 to 6000 PSIG!
Low Cost, Durable Flow Monitors have a patented design based on a floating sharp-edged orifice disk and variable area flow measurement to yield accuracy of +/-2.5% over center one-third of scale. This unique design allows accurate performance with fluid viscosities up to 500 SSU. All internal wetted parts are contained inside a sealed metal tubular casing assuring a virtually maintenance-free unit. Flowing media forces linear motion of a spring loaded, sharp edge orifice disk and ring shaped transfer magnet which both ride on a tapered center shaft. The transfer magnet drives a clearly visible magnet follower located outside the flow tube, protected under the clear Lexan® tube. A ring on the magnet follower indicates flow rate on the direct reading scale. Rubber bumpers are provided for external impact resistance.
