CentriFlow CFM Type I: Standard Meter

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Type I CentriFlow® Meter is a versatile instrument designed for mass flow measurement of products fed in a horizontal direction. It is suitable for a wide range of applications, including large products like tortilla chips and cereals, as well as smaller granular products such as pellets and grains.
Specifications: The meter can be mounted in either Reverse or In-Line Flow orientations. Both orientations are mechanically identical, but the In-Line orientation allows for a backward tilt of up to 20 degrees to facilitate product movement. A transition is often required to move the product from the feed device to the meter, which can be supplied by Eastern Instruments or a third party.
Material Specifications: Standard meter parts are constructed from 6061 aluminum, with stainless steel available as an option. Product contact surfaces are made of stainless steel, and liners for high-wear applications can be manufactured with various coatings. A selection of liners and materials is available to suit specific applications.
Volumetric Capacity: The volumetric capacity varies based on the meter size and flow orientation. For Reverse Flow, capacities range from 0.13 ft³/min (0.21 m³/hr) to 3.00 ft³/min (5.10 m³/hr) for belt systems, and from 1.25 ft³/min (2.12 m³/hr) to 90.00 ft³/min (152.91 m³/hr) for vibratory systems. For In-Line Flow, capacities range from 1.25 ft³/min (2.12 m³/hr) to 30.00 ft³/min (50.97 m³/hr) for belt systems, and from 1.25 ft³/min (2.12 m³/hr) to 90.00 ft³/min (152.91 m³/hr) for vibratory systems.
Applications: The CFM Type I Standard Meter is ideal for free-flowing, delicate, bulky, and large-particle materials.

CentriFlow CFM Type I: Standard Meter-1

The CFM Type I Standard Meter is exceedingly versatile and can be utilized for nearly any application requiring a mass flow-measurement in which the product is being fed in a horizontal direction. The CFM Type I Standard Meter is perfect for large products such as tortilla chips or cereals, as well as smaller, more granular products such as pellets or grains. Type I CentriFlow® Meters, can be mounted in either the Reverse or the In-Line Flow orientation. While both orientations of the meter are mechanically identical, when oriented in the InLine orientation, the meter can be tilted backwards (up to 20 Degrees) in order to facilitate the movement of product through the meter. In addition, a transition (pictured below) is often needed in order to move product from the feed device to the meter. The transition can be supplied by Eastern Instruments or by a third party as well. Free-flowii Delicate Materials Bulky Materials* Large- i articles Material Specification 1.
