Working principle The 2000 series flowmeters work according to variable area principle, which is obtained by a float that moves inside a borosilicate glass tapered tube. The fluid flows up through the tapered tube forcing the float to a position with sufficient free area to enable the flow to pass, where there is an equilibrium of forces: - E = force of the fluid flow  Working pressure: 15 bar max.  Connections: - 2100 / 2150 / 2300: ¼” BSP / NPT - 2340: ½” BSP / NPT  Regulating valve: - Mounted on the inlet in applications for liquid and gas at atmospheric pressure - Pf = weight of the...

Constant flow regulator The 2000 series flowmeters are built to incorporate the RCA / RCD regulators, which allow keeping a constant flow when working pressure on the inlet or on the outlet are not constant. In applications for gases, model RCA is used in installations where inlet pressure changes and outlet pressure or counter pressure is constant, while model RCD is used in installations where inlet pressure is constant and outlet pressure or counterpressure changes. For liquids, model RCA is the commonly used. Operation RCA regulator: inlet pressure is variable and outlet pressure is constant....

Applications Measurement of hydrostatic level The measurement of hydrostatic by means of bubbling can be used for both open and pressurized tanks. In open tanks (fig. 1), the probe (not supplied) is fed a constant flow of air or neutral gas at a constant pressure and flow rate, regulated by the flowmeter series 2000+RCD. By means of a manometer (not supplied), the height of the liquid in the tank is measured. This height is equal to the pressure (mmH2O) in the probe. The measuring system is made up of: - Probe for level measurement mounted in the tank - Pressure gauge (or manometer) scaled in...
