Acrylic Panel-Mounted Rotameter FL02
The Acrylic Panel-Mounted Rotameter FL02 is one of the most widely used instruments for measuring fluid flow in various pipelines. This type of flowmeter is made from a transparent acrylic tube, which gradually widens from the inlet to the outlet. Its simple design and precise performance make it a popular choice across multiple industries.
Operating Principle of the Acrylic Panel-Mounted Rotameter
The primary mechanism of this flowmeter is based on the movement of a float inside a transparent tube. The float settles at a specific height within the tube depending on the fluid flow rate. The higher the flow rate, the higher the float rises. The tube is marked with graduated scales to allow direct reading of the fluid flow rate.
For accurate performance, these rotameters must be installed vertically, ensuring a smooth and steady fluid flow into the tube without fluctuations.
Key Features of the Acrylic Panel-Mounted Rotameter FL02
Due to its unique design and extensive applications, the FL02 rotameter offers several outstanding features:
Transparent and Durable Design
The acrylic body of this flowmeter provides high resistance to impact and wear while allowing direct visual monitoring of the float movement and fluid flow status, making it highly practical for operators who need real-time monitoring.
Adjustable Flow Rate
Models equipped with a control valve allow precise adjustment of the fluid flow. This feature enables users to modify the flow rate according to their operational needs.
Precision Calibration
All FL02 panel-mounted rotameters from Sangan Sanat are calibrated in specialized laboratories. Liquid rotameters are calibrated with water, while gas rotameters are calibrated with air, ensuring high accuracy in flow measurement.
Easy Installation
These flowmeters can be mounted on panels or upright stands, making them easily adaptable for use in various industrial and laboratory environments.
Cost-Effective Solution
Compared to other flowmeters, acrylic rotameters are one of the most economical options for fluid flow measurement. Their simple design and low manufacturing costs make them an affordable choice.
