MetadataThis section provides information about 'RDS882719'.

DefinitionA <VOLUME FLOW MEASURING INSTRUMENT - ROTAMETER> is an <INSTRUMENTATION ITEM> and a <VOLUME FLOW MEASURING INSTRUMENT> that handles the measurement results of a <VOLUME FLOW MEASURING ELEMENT - VARIABLE AREA>
ISO number4718
NoteAt a higher flow rate more area (between the float and the tube) is needed to accommodate the flow, so the float rises. The float hooks into spiral grooves on the glass (to stabilize the float) causing the float to rotate as it moves up or down. One edge of the float is compared with graduations on the glass to measure the flow rate of the fluid.
