Explosion proof flap flowmeter for mineral oils, alkalis, acids

KFS EM Ex Flap Flow Meter Kirchner explosion proofKirchner Germany now offers the certified KFS EM Ex Flap Type Flow Meter for H2O, acids, alkaline solutions and gases in explosion proof design:

  • product specific scale and calibration, spring loaded
  • intrinsically safe Exia or flameproof Exdb design
  • local display with limit switch or 4-20 mA output
  • largely independent of viscosity, low maintenance

Specifications

KFS Flap FMThe 50 mm thick ring features a half-round plate that is fastened to a rotating spring-loaded spindle.

The angle between flap and ring changes according to the rate of flow, and a breakaway-proof magnetic coupling transfers the movement to an external pointer

Flap Flow Working Principle

  • spring loaded flap connected to a 50mm ring
  • flow direction: horizontal, top-bottom
  • pipe size: DN 25 - 600
  • flow up to 1650 m³/h (air 5000m³/h) 

The devices are used in water and waste water treatment plants, power stations, chemical and oleo-chemical factories, monitoring cooling and heating (furnace) systems, gravel extraction, etc.
