Rotameter
ROTAMETER
ROTAMETER (Variable Area Meters) are named after ROTA, one of the European inventors of this flow principle in the beginning of the century. ROTA invented the rotating float, which is self-guiding and has less friction in the pipe so that a more precise measurement is possible. Rota Yokogawa is one of the main suppliers of ROTAMETER in Europe. Globally ROTAMETER is available with metering tubes manufactured from either glass, plastic or metal. Our ROTAMETERT family includes units 6mm to 125mm line sizes, temperatures from -180 to +400ºC, flange ratings to 1500#, ±1.6% accuracy class and turndown's of 10:1. ROTAMETER offer a very low cost, easy to install solution to flow measurement. Once considered as only a water or air flowmeter, ROTAMETE is now world proven in applications such as industrial gases, viscous/non conductive chemicals, steam and fuels.

Flow Network
Flow Network Plastic VKP flowmeters and switches are used wherever inexpensive flow measurement of liquids (eg. domestic services, cooling water, lubrication systems, solar heating, etc.) is to be performed. The VKP series offers a compact design with wetted parts of Polysulfone, PVDF and Stainless Steel. Its low cost and features make the VKP series an ideal choice for OEM applications. Flow is read at the upper edge of the float.
