Series FA140 and FA280 Variable Area Flowmeter/Alarm

The MPB Series FA140 and FA280 Flowmeters/Alarms were developed to meet the requirement for flowmeters with an integral flow control valve and incorporating a latching alarm device, being capable of switching up to a 5 Amp resistive load.

The FA140 and FA280 Flowmeters/Alarms utilise the guided float principle to give maximum flow rates and a stable indication of flow.  These flowmeter offers an economical solution for cost effective systems using pumps or level controls etc.  The latching alarm eliminates the need for costly electronic circuitry.
