The Metaltube Magnetic Rotameter by NRG Global Instruments is a flow measurement device designed for measuring the flow rate of liquids and gases. Rotameters, in general, work based on the principle of a variable area flowmeter, where a float moves within a tapered tube based on the flow rate, with the position of the float indicating the flow rate.
Key features of a Metaltube Magnetic Rotameter typically include:
1. Construction:
Metal Tube: Offers durability, making it suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications. Unlike glass rotameters, metal tube rotameters are resistant to breakage and can handle more rigorous industrial environments.
Magnetic Coupling: The magnetic connection between the float and the indicator ensures accurate reading without requiring a direct line of sight, allowing it to be used in opaque or hazardous fluids.
2. Applications:
Commonly used in industries such as oil & gas, petrochemical, water treatment, and pharmaceuticals.
Suitable for measuring the flow of liquids, gases, and steam under varying process conditions.
3. Advantages:
Durability: Metal construction makes it resistant to corrosion and suitable for harsh environments.
Wide Range: Can be used for a wide range of flow rates and viscosities.
Non-Visual Indicator: The magnetic mechanism enables flow reading without needing to see the float, ideal for opaque fluids.
Variable Pressure and Temperature: Can handle high pressure and temperature ranges.
