Glass Tube Flowmeter R-101-E Series

R-101-E is a glass tube type variable area flowmeter. The flow rate is indicated by the position of float and the graduation engraved on the glass tube.
Although it has a very simple construction, it is widely used for measurement of flow rate of liquids and gases in various applications thanks to its high reliability and easy handling capability.
A large sized tapered tube is adopted compared to standard type glass tube flowmeters and wide scale range is possible.
In addition to standard material of steel and stainless steel, PVC is also available for corrosive applications.

Larger flow range in same size

Wider opening glass tube offers larger flow range compared to standard glass tube meters.

Easy installation

No straight both for upstream and downstream is required for process installation. No utility supply is needed.

Cost effectiveness

The pure mechanical construction offers most cost effective flowmeasurement.

Direct observation of measuring liquid

In addition to flow rate measurement, the measurement fluids are directly observed for better process fluid quality control.

Wide material selection

Besides the standard metallic material, resins and/or lining materials are available for corrosive fluids.
