ACCURATE MEASUREMENT
Flow up the tapered tube
lifts the float to an
equilibrium
position.
Flow rate is then
measured against the flat
top edge of the float.

FLOWMETER CHOICE
A complete VA flowmeter consists of a glass flow
tube and float scaled to the flow units required, and a
frame to provide the end block supports and to cover
and protect the tube. The NGX series frames use flow
tubes with nominally 100mm long scales, whereas
the smaller LGX frames use flow tubes with nominally
30mm scales.
To choose a complete flowmeter select the frame
code required, and separately specify the fluid flow
range needed on the flow tube scale.
NGX and LGX series frames are designed to fit your
process. The options available allow easy installation,
usually surface mounted on a vertical panel. Process
connections and labelling can be customised to suit
the application.
