Basic Variable Area Flow Meter

The LAKE Basic Inline Variable Area flow meter is ideal for monitoring pump performance and oil or water flows through hydraulic circuits and cooling systems. Often referred to as “rotameters,” Lake’s Basic meters are a low-cost alternative to other flow meter types and are available in numerous materials of construction, including aluminum, brass, and stainless steel to meet system and media requirements. The superior design not only makes this flow meter weather-proof for outdoor environments and wash-downs but also reliable offering maintenance-free performance.

Basic Variable Area Flow Meter:

• Choice of Three Materials of Construction: Select from aluminum, brass or stainless steel to meet system and liquid requirements.
• Unrestricted Mounting: Allows for horizontal, vertical or inverted installation and does not require straight plumbing on the inlet or outlet.
• Superior Exterior Design: Weather-tight for use outdoors and/or on systems where washdowns are required.
• Rugged and Reliable: Designed as a hydraulic service tool, this monitor will provide years of maintenance-free performance.
• High-Pressure Operation: The magnetically coupled follower design allows the operation to 6000 PSIG and uses with liquids.
• Many Different Ports Available: Standard selection of NPT, SAE, and BSPP ports reduces the number of adapters required for installation.
