Flowmeter
Flow meter - threaded or flat connection
Monitoring changes in flow and consumption is crucial in order to thoroughly record and analyze any changes that occur. FILCOM's flow meters allow you to remain flexible and increase energy efficiency, for example by identifying leaks. Thanks to modern technologies, these measuring devices provide precise digital values and enable exact measurement through integrated measuring sections.
Precise measurements directly on site
When selecting a suitable flow meter, you should consider a few points. Our devices are suitable for linear and non-linear measurement of flow rates and volume flows, both for liquids and gases. Pay attention to the pressure range in which the device is used, the temperature range and the medium to be measured. The hardware of the device and the installed sensor, which should be precisely matched to the measurement requirements, are also decisive.
Important selection criteria for flow meters
The following factors should be taken into account when making your selection:
- The medium to be measured
- Whether a measuring rate and/or summation is required
- The viscosity of the medium
- Minimum and maximum flow rates
- Maximum process pressure
- Physical conditions of the pipeline
It is helpful if the measuring unit can be easily set on the device. FILCOM therefore offers flow meters that allow easy adjustment of measured variables such as m³/h, l/min or m³/min directly via the operating buttons.
Digital recording for faster measurements
Digital recording has numerous advantages: Measured values are easy to read and less prone to errors. The digital displays are flexibly adaptable. When buying, pay attention to the type of digital outputs on the device. High-quality devices usually offer at least two outputs, including an RS-485 interface and a Modbus RTU output, which is often used in energy management systems. The devices themselves are made of durable, robust materials, with polycarbonate preferred for the housing and stainless steel for the measuring sections.
Additional options in the FILCOM range
In addition to flow meters, FILCOM also offers a selection of matching accessories.
Use the setting options on the flow meter
In addition to the unit setting, other configurations are also possible directly on the device. Depending on the model, various media such as compressed air, argon, CO2 or nitrogen can be adapted. High-performance measuring devices offer an accuracy of around ±1.5 % of the displayed value and can be rotated flexibly. This makes it easy to read the results, even in confined and angled areas.
