  ACRYLIC BODY ROTAMETERS
 
       
VEKSLER (ABR-191) High Volume Acrylic Body Rotameters are useful for general purpose application like water, air and inert gases.

The tapered metering tube is drilled in the solid block and the scale is engraved on the body itself.

The other features are similar to the of the GTR-19 except that it cannot be used for corrosive application and for temperature above 60 Deg C.

Flow range is available from 100 to 40,000 LPH for water and 0.5 to 450 m3/hr for air

  GLASS TUBE ROTAMETERS
 
 
Glass Tube Rotameters consist of a tapered glass tube mounted vertically in a frame with the small diameter at the bottom and large end up. The tube contains a free moving float that rests on the stopper at the base of the tube. When the liquid flows, the float rises until its weight is balanced by the up thrust of the fluid and the float reaches a position of equilibrium. At this position it indicates the instantaneous rate of flow.

The flow rate can be read from the adjacent scale.The pressure drop across the float is equal to its weight divided by its maximum cross-sectional area in the horizontal plane. Both in orifice type meter and in the Rotameter, the pressure drop arises arises from the conversion of pressure energy to kinetic energy and from the frictional losses. Thus Rotameter may be considered as an orifice meter with a variable aperture and the formula derived for the orifice meter is applicable here with only minor changes
 
  DESIGN FEATURES
 
  • Accuracy +/ -2% of full scale
  • Overall length of 500 mm in flanged versions
  • End connections can be rotated through 360 Deg
  • Connection orientation
  • Top & Bottom, rear, bottom and rear, rear and top
  • Tube can be changed without disconnecting the meter from the line
  • Detachable scale with flow in customers engineering units
  • Standard interchangeable floats for a given size
  • Adjustable packing gland
  • Wide choice of flow ranges for individual requirement
  • Sturdy metallic construction to with stand pipeline stress and vibration
  • 1/2" to 4" Line size and max flow upto 30000 LPH for online installation
  • Optional high and low alarms
  MATERIAL OF CONSTRUCTION
 
  • Borosilicate Glass Tube
  • SS 304/SS 316/Teflon Floats
  • CC, MS, SS 304, SS 316, Rubber lined PTFE lined End Fittings, threaded or Flanged (ASA 150 #, BS 10 Table D/E or as per customer's requirement)
  • Neoprene/ Teflon/ Silicon/ Viton Packing
  • MS/ CS Powder coated Frame as standard and SS optional
  • Aluminium frame with safety glass/ acrylic window
  • CS/SS 304/SS 316 bolts
  • Cast Steel epoxy painted gland housing
 
  METAL TUBE ROTAMETERS
 
 
Metal Tube Rotameters are available for use in harsher duties in liquids and gases where glass tubes are not allowed for safety reasons. These are very rugged and robust yet inexpensive for flow rate indication purposes. MTR can be used for opaque and turbid fluids at high operating temperature and pressures.The Flow is indicated by a pointer, which is magnetically coupled with the float that rises in a tapered tube with increase in flow.
 
  DESIGN FEATURES
 
  • SS/ Teflon lined body
  • Die-cast Aluminum housing with Aluminium pointer and SS 304 hardware
  • High Pressure and Temperature service
  • Linear flow reading and output signals
  • Easy to read local display
  • Line size from 1/2" to 4"
  • Flow 100 to 70000 LPH for water and 2000 m3/hr for air
  • Flanged connections to any standard ASA, BST, DIN etc.
  • Optional alarms and 4-20 mA output
 
  BYE PASS ROTAMETERS
 
     
  VEKSLER Bye Pass Rotameters are available for line sizes 2" and above. The complete assembly consists of an Orifice plate, Flanges of the main pipe line, by-pass piping with isolation valve and fittings, range orifice and the Rotameter. The Orifice calculations and design is bases on IS or BS standard.

By-Pass Rotameters are the most economical solution for flow measurement in large pipe lines and for large rate of flow but the use is limited to solid particles and slurries that tend to clog the range orifice and may result in malfunctioning.
   
  DESIGN FEATURES
 
  • SS304/ SS316 Orifice plate
  • CS/Forged and SS Flanges
  • Accuracy +/-2% of full flow
  • Also available without main line flanges
  • Optional alarms and 4-20 mA output
