Sho-Rate™ Series Glass Tube Variable Area Flow Meters

Features

• Flow Ranges:
  • Air: Up to 140 scfh / 63 slpm
  • Water: Up to 34 gph / 2000 cc/min
• Borosilicate glass tubes are compatible with most gases and fluids
• Float materials include black glass, 316 stainless steel, sapphire, Carboloy®, tantalum
• Magnification ensures scales are easy to read

Sho-Rate™ 1350 / 1355 / 1358 features include:

• Three accuracy levels: 3% (low-flow Model 1355), 5% (low-flow Model 1350) or standard accuracy of 10% (high-flow Model 1358)
• Repeatability of 0.25% Full Scale (0.5% Full Scale for Model 1358)
• Scale includes built-in magnifier – scale decals can be applied directly to the tube to support unique flow ranges and units of measure
• Options include standard or NRS™ integral needle control valves, as well as flow controllers on the inlet or outlet to go beyond measurement

Sho-Rate™ 1250 / 1255 features include:

• Two accuracy levels: 5% Full Scale (Model 1250), 10% Full Scale (Model 1255)
• Standard direct-read scales for common units and fluids – 65 mm, 150 mm scale lengths (approximate)
• Inlet valve and outlet valve with options of cartridge valve, precision control valve or no valve
• Easy-change design allows quick interchangeability of tube assemblies
• Rotating lens provides a 180° view with magnification

Benefits

• Options offer value-added features to meet project or OEM requirements
• Borosilicate glass is resistant to thermal shock and corrosive gases and fluids
• Corrosion-resistant material options for scales, floats, fittings and valves accommodate demanding applications
• Integral float stops prevent loss of float during tube removal
• Enhance accuracy with easy-to-read scales with magnification

Applications

• Pharmaceutical production
• Research
• Chemical manufacturing
• Analytical instrumentation
• Water treatment and distribution systems
