Product catalog summary
Overview: The Flow-Mon Medium Series is designed to monitor flow rates using a scaled dial and mechanical indicator. It can be equipped with electrical switches to signal specific flow levels. The device is modular, allowing for easy installation and maintenance without the need for straight pipe runs.
Specifications:
  • Flow Rate: Minimum scale ranges from 0-40 LPM to 0-800 LPM depending on pipe size.
  • Design: Modular and versatile, can be mounted in any position. Operates with a vane that adjusts to flow changes.
  • Switches: Field adjustable, available with 0-10v or 4-20mA output.
  • Materials: Available in Aluminum, Bronze, Cast Iron, Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, PTFE, and PVC.
  • Pressure Rating: Up to 3000 psi / 200 bar for certain materials.
Applications: Suitable for various fluids including water, oils, petroleum, coolants, and gases.
Installation and Maintenance:
  • Can be installed in any position without straight pipe requirements.
  • Regular inspections for corrosion and wear are recommended.
  • Ensure pipelines are flushed and free from particles before installation.
Safety and Maintenance:
  • Follow local regulations and ensure trained personnel handle installation.
  • Protect from fire, impact, and vibration.
  • Regularly inspect and clean the device, ensuring no damage to components.
Troubleshooting: Includes steps for addressing pointer sticking, trembling, and ensuring accurate flow readings.
Spares and Contact: A list of spare parts is provided, along with contact information for ordering and inquiries.

Medium series-1

…simple flow solutions in a complicated world Medium Series Technical Specifications Screwed Unit A scaled dial and mechanical indicator continuously monitor the flow rate at any given time whilst electrical switches can be specified to signal when a particular level has been reached during increasing or decreasing flow rates. Minimum Scale; Maximum Scale; Style; Flanged Unit Through its unique modular design it allows for easy field installation and service. It does not require any straight pipe runs before or after the monitor thus minimizing the installation footprint. The versatile design of the vane monitor allows for orientation to be mounted in any position. Vane style monitor operates when flow is introduced through the inlet connection making direct contact with the vane that is mechanically linked to the indicator shaft. The fluid forces the vane to move through a contoured opening creating a variable orifice, the greater the flow the larger the orifice becomes for flow to pass. The vane style monitor is spring loaded and allows the vane to return on decreasing flows. Are field adjustable, suitable for batching, trending, totalising or recording where required. All Flow-Mon units can be supplied with a 0-10v or 420mA output. All sizes are manufactured to the same simple design concept, the main characteristic of which ensures that the pressure drops are confined to an absolute minimum (see “pressure drop” charts) across the vane orifice at full flow, with viscosities as high as 600cS. Sizes are defined by pipe size and/or maximum flow capacity, and every flow switch is individually calibrated so that full scale deflection is used in each application i.e. the maximum scale reading coincides with the maximum requirements of system as specified by the customer. Calibration may be in any units with Single or Dual scale to specification. Water, De-Ionised Water, Soluble Oils (Glycols), Petroleum Based Fluids, Synthetic Based Fluids, Coolants, Corrosive Fluids, Paints, Solvents, Air & Gases Medium Series Comparable to similar style devices in the industry, Flow–Mon’s “flow through” design offers a low pressure loss. To ensure accuracy they are individually calibrated in any unit of measure to customer operating specifications. Explosion Proof Aluminium En
