RCM Flow Meter Specifications |
| The RCM
is a differential pressure direct reading flow meter.
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. It is suitable for monitoring all liquids
and gases that have low or medium viscosity, low solids content,
and are compatible with the materials of construction. The
meter features rugged, compact construction. In liquid applications
of 6 GPM and higher, pulsation snubbers are incorporated into
the connecting pressure passages to produce smooth meter operation
independent of pipeline turbulence.
This meter was developed for industrial
flow metering applications in which durability and reliability
are important considerations. Accuracy, small size, low cost,
minimal maintenance and resistance to accidental damage are
the prime goals in the RCM design. Typical applications include:
lube oil and cooling water monitoring, blending processes,
reverse osmosis systems, and compressed air measurement.
The RCM is available with a 420 mA
output for interfacing with remote displays and controllers.
Limit switches are available to provide high and low limit
signals. A 01000 Hz frequency output is available to drive
frequency based controllers and counters.
