Rising ball visual flow indicator has new design

The white PTFE ball rises into the reinforced borosilicate glass dome, and is visible when flow exceeds a minimum level

The Rising Ball visual flow indicator from Flow-Mon is described as a high quality unit suitable for use in any flow or fluid circulation system, whether chemicals, lubrication or cooling fluids.

With BSP or NPT connections as standard on 1/4" to 1.5" flow lines, the high grade bronze or stainless steel investment cast bodies are suitable for pressures as high as 16bar at 200C.

Flow-Mon re-engineered this modern version of an established product concept to provide a low cost, off-the-shelf flow visualisation system.

Using only one freely moving part, the white Teflon ball provides a simple indication of any significant fluid flow down the flow line, even in gases, steam or colourless liquids.

In addition the glass window onto the fluid itself provides a useful monitoring point for the typical plant maintenance engineer: the physical inspection picture provided could prevent countless unnecessary system breakdowns.

With minimal pressure drop, typically less than 0.2bar, and flow set-point indication ranging from 0.1l/min to 13l/min depending on line size, these Flow-Mon Rising Ball units provide immediately recognisable flow indication, without requiring any power, any maintenance, and with minimal flow restriction.

All units are PED approved, and produced by Flow-Mon, an ISO 2001 registered company.
