Series DTFA Variable-Area Flowmeter for Gases

Economical, Aluminum Body, 5% FS Accuracy

The Series DTFA Variable-Area Flowmeter for Gases measures gas flow rates with ±5% of full-scale accuracy at an affordable price. Rugged aluminum construction ensures great compatibility and the strength to withstand system pressures of up to 3000 psig (200 bar). Available in either 1/4″ or 1/2″ NPT connections. Comes pre-calibrated for horizontal in-line mounting.

Product Applications

• Monitoring pressure drop across filters or strainers
• Flow scale based on differential pressure
• Liquid level given pressure differential between bottom and top of tank
• Hydraulic equipment
• Oil & gas equipment
• Heat exchangers
• Backflow prevention

 

Features

• Durable metal construction ensures great reliability and the strength to withstand system pressures of up to 3000 psig (200 bar)
• Shatter proof construction, unlike glass tube variable area flowmeters, yields long operation life
• Preform precisely in high temperature, high vibration, shock-prone environments
