HOW FLOTRAK WORKS

Fluid, passing through an orifice within the tube, causes a profiled float to assume a position where the forces created by flow are balanced by the weight of the float. A magnet in the float is sensed by the FloTrak system, providing a direct reading flow rate scale, optional alarms or an independent 4 to 20mA transmitter.

INSTRUMENT OPTIONS

The FloTrak meter is installed in a vertical line with flow upwards and is normally supported by the surrounding pipework. Several styles of instrument are available:

Flow Alarm Unit
The Direct Reading Indicator with one or two  fully  adjustable set-point  trips,  for connection via an interface unit.

Transmitter
4 to 20mA loop output proportional to percentage of reading. Available with the Direct Reading Indicator.

     ADDITIONAL FEATURES

  • Gas Damping is fitted as standard on gas ranges
  • Alternative flange connection ratings and types are available on request.
  • Special calibrations or flow ranges.
  • Alternative materials are available to suit process fluid.
