Sanitary Turbine Flowmeters

Accurate, Versatile, and Economical

Description
Flow Technologys sanitary turbine flowmeters provide accuracy, versatility and economy in measuring a wide variety of food, beverage and pharmaceutical products. Flow Technologys more than 30 years experience enables the company to produce an extremely durable sanitary turbine flowmeter with a repeatability of 0.1%. The SA Series Sanitary Turbine Flowmeters feature 316 stainless steel construction and have a smooth finish, which is designed to eliminate cracks and crevices where bacteria breed. Standard flowmeters are available in sizes from 1/2" to 2" with sanitary clamps. Flow rates range from 0.1 to 250 gallons per minute (0.38 to 946 LPM). Typical applications include measuring or batch controlling water, WFI, USP water, deionized water, vaccines, clean pharmaceuticals, milk, cream, vegetable oil, wine, beer, spirits, soft drinks, juices (without pulp) and any other clean, consumable liquid.
