Flow Meter Applications
Whether your application requires a gas flow meter, where thermal flow meter, vortex flow meter, or differential pressure flow meter technologies all may be suitable, or a liquid flow meter with choices between ultrasonic flow meters, magnetic flow meters, variable area flow meters, positive displacement flow meters or turbine flow meters all being applicable, the SmartMeasurement™ flow matrix below can help navigate you to an optimum solution for your individual application. By putting your mouse over each icon you can view the application parameters and ranges, such as max and min flow rates, temperatures, pressures, and viscosity.
