Electronic Mass Flowmeters
Series A820 CONTINUE
Description
The Series A820 electronic mass flowmeters are compact, self-contained units designed to indicate the flow rate of gases. Unlike variable area meters, flow rates are unaffected by variations in temperature and pressure within specified limits. The mechanical layout of the design includes an LCD readout built into the top of the transducer. This readout module is tiltable over 90 degrees to provide optimum reading comfort. The readout is connected by a standard modular plug, and is readily removable and extended for remote reading installations. Units are available in aluminum or stainless steel.
