MPB SERIES 3000 VARIABLE AREA FLOWMETER

Series 3000 Variable Area Flowmeter with optional latching alarm

The MPB Series 3000 range of Variable Area Flowmeters presents an economical means of accurate flow measurement.  A scale length of 260mm offers excellent resolution giving easily read scale graduations.

Recent additions to this range now offer the very desirable feature of handling flow rates as low as 50cc/min Air.  A complete range of twelve new high accuracy low flow ranges have now been added to this model.

All the recently added flow tubes utilise a “free float” design which has a very low pressure drop.

The MPB Series 3000 is now an ideal flowmeter for use as a calibration master, or where high accuracy with a good resolution scale is required for the most demanding of variable area flow applications.  

The materials of construction offer compatibility to a wide range of industrial process mediums.

The end connections can be supplied in either stainless steel or rigid PVC.

The units are fitted with a calibrated scale plate.   In addition, a metric scale is permanently fired onto the tube.  A useful blank scale plate can also be provided for customers own calibration if required.

The 3000 Series can be used to measure the flow rate of most process gases and liquids.

A wide range of tubes is available for the MPB Series 3000 from as low as 50cc/min Air up to 3,000 L/min Air.  Other ranges up to 125 L/min are also available.

One or two economical latching Hi and Lo alarm devices can be fitted.  These enable the alarms to remain activated whilst flow is above or below a set point.  This reduces expensive electronic circuitry and is ideal for remote and process control applications.

In addition, a good selection of the ranges can be fitted with alarms for air applications.
 
A rear of panel mounting kit is available complete with bezel.
