Overview

Model Variations:

  • F-300 = Horizontal flow
  • D-300 = Vertical down flow
  • U-300 = Vertical up flow
  • NSF 50 LISTED 1”, 1.25”, 1.5”, 2” (L2), 2.5”, 3”, 4”, and 6” (L3) – Horizontal flow only
  • Well suited for closed pipe installations
  • Easy to read dual scale (GPM / LPM), screen printed on both sides of the meter body
  • Acceptable for outdoor installations (direct sunlight okay)
  • Pitot Tube (impact tube) design makes it easy to install on existing pipe
  • One piece, machined acrylic meter body, annealed for added strength and chemical resistance
  • Included SS clamps and gasket seal
  • Standard and Low Flow options available
  • For use on PVC or Copper Pipes (refer to literature)

Flow Sensor Accessory

Why do you need a Flow Switch?
Is your recirculation pump working?

Is your recirculation system at the correct flow rate?

Is your chemical pump injecting into a stopped system?

Is your filter clogged?

How Does it work?
Optional Flow Switch / Sensor is designed to detect Flow / No Flow.
A rare earth magnet is located within the red PVDF float of the new F-300 flowmeters. When the magnet passes through the Alarm Trigger Zone (Hysteresis) of the Sensor Accessory, the built-in contact closure switch sends a signal to external devices.
Note: Two alarms can be placed onto one meter to obtain both ‘Flow Switch’ and ‘Flow Sensor’ capabilities
